From schedule data to project decisions

A clearer view of project performance

Drawing on more than two decades of historical project controls data and experience, our platform identifies trends to help anticipate, evaluate, and mitigate project risks.

Schedule Intelligence helps owners, contractors, and project teams understand current status, compare reporting periods, and focus their review on work that needs attention.

AEC combines the platform’s reporting tools with professional schedule review to explain the work, the handoffs, and the questions behind a changing forecast.

What happened?

In this example, controls installation finishes one week later. Functional testing and final inspections also move one week, shifting the selected completion milestone from June 11 to June 18.

AEC review question: Can completed areas be released for testing in stages to reduce the effect on final inspections?

Longest Path Explained

The sequence leading to completion

In this example, the remaining sequence begins with controls installation. Once the controls are ready, the team completes functional testing, proceeds through final inspections, and reaches the selected completion milestone on June 18, 2027.

Controls installation → Functional testing → Final inspections → Completion

Platform capabilities

The right information for the next conversation

01 / PROJECT OVERVIEW

See the project at a glance

Review completion forecasts, progress indicators, total float, and schedule health in one place. A program summary brings multiple projects together for a consistent view of reporting milestones.

02 / UPDATE COMPARISONS

Understand what changed

Compare baseline, previous, and current schedule versions. See activities finishing later or earlier, added work, duration changes, and movement in selected completion milestones.

03 / SCHEDULE INSIGHTS

Read the story behind the dates

Plain-language explanations describe changes in the work sequence and the path to completion. Supporting activity details help the team follow the findings back to the schedule.

04 / PATHS & LOGIC

Focus on the work leading to completion

Review imported driving-path information, WBS groupings, total-float indicators, and relationship changes. AEC validates the controlling path and develops focused questions for the project team.

05 / LOOK-AHEAD REPORTS

Bring upcoming work into focus

Use date-based look-aheads and activity reports to review upcoming starts, finishes, and remaining work. Reports use each project's current schedule data date.

06 / MEETING-READY OUTPUT

Take the findings into the meeting

View and print schedule reports with WBS shading, comparison bars, and clear timelines. Export available activity tables for further review and discussion.
