Pre-Construction CPM Scheduling

A goal without a plan is just a wish!

A project without a critical path is like a ship without a rudder. ~ D. Meyer

CPMPlanners offers a wide range of CPM scheduling services to its clients. From bid schedules to full and comprehensive construction schedules (including cost and resource-loaded schedules), progress updating, baseline revisions, earned value reporting, change & impact monitoring, cash flow projecting, and executive analysis.

CPMPlanners is the Contractor’s solution to the often-overwhelming process of the construction schedule.

Because we understand that each client has different needs, CPMPlanners‘s diverse selection of services is tailored to suit any company, project, and budget. Whether your needs are large or small, simple or detailed, we can help. Our services and costs are provided in such a format that allows you, the client, to select the level of services that is most appropriate. Typical schedule preparation starts with the Contractor’s draft schedule, which outlines activities and the intended means and methods of construction. CPMPlanners integrates this information into Primavera P6®, performs a professional review of logic and continuity, identifies any weaknesses within the schedule, and develops it into a technical format that meets the project’s requirements. Throughout this development process, CPMPlanners works with the Contractor to ensure that the output of the schedule is what was expected. We stay true to the Contractor’s intended means and methods of constructing the project. We are expert Primavera scheduling consultants.

Non-CPM based schedules consisting of open-end tasks always fail in Schedule Health Check & Integrity Tests due to which updating, monitoring and controlling becomes difficult subsequently making the Time Impact Analysis (TIA) for Extension of Time (EOT) claim, completely IMPOSSIBLE!
