One version of the truth.

Construction data and integration that connects P6, cost, field progress, RFIs and submittals into one governed model. Clean pipelines into Power BI, automated quality checks on every schedule file and an audit trail behind every number leadership sees.

When the data disagrees with itself.

01

Five systems, five percent completes

The schedule, the cost system, the field app and the pay application each say something different. Meetings turn into arguments about whose number is right.

02

Bad schedule data, good-looking charts

A dashboard built on a schedule full of open ends and hard constraints is still a pretty picture of a wrong answer.

03

No trail behind the number

When a forecast changes, nobody can say which file, which edit or which person moved it. That is a governance problem and, later, a legal one.

How we work

How we integrate.

  1. 01

    Map the sources

    P6 or Microsoft Project, the cost system, field progress, RFI and submittal logs, change orders and pay applications: every source, owner and refresh cycle.

  2. 02

    Design one data model

    Shared keys across WBS, cost codes, locations and activities, so schedule, cost and field data finally join on the same line.

  3. 03

    Build the pipelines

    Scheduled, documented pipelines from each source into a reporting store and Power BI, with no manual copying in between.

  4. 04

    Check quality on arrival

    Automated DCMA-style checks run on every schedule upload, plus completeness and consistency tests on cost and field data, before anything reaches a dashboard.

  5. 05

    Keep the audit trail

    Every file version, data date and change is stored, so any number can be traced back to its source and its author.

What you get.

Scoped to your project and delivered in native files your team owns.

Source and data mapInventory

Every system, field, owner and refresh cycle documented, with the shared keys that tie them together.

Integrated data modelSchedule + cost + field

One model joining activities, cost codes, progress, RFIs and submittals on common keys.

Automated pipelinesPower BI

Documented, scheduled data flows from each source into your reporting store and dashboards.

Automated schedule checksDCMA 14

Health checks that run on every schedule file received, with failures flagged before the data is published.

Audit trailGovernance

Version history for every schedule and cost snapshot, so any reported number can be traced to its source.

In practice · Whose number is right?

Three systems, one percent complete.

A common starting point: the schedule says 62 percent, the cost system says 55, the field app says 70, and the monthly meeting is spent arguing. We map the sources to one model, agree the rules of credit, and build a pipeline that checks every file on arrival. The argument moves from whose number to what to do about it.

Questions owners ask us.

Do you replace our existing systems?

No. We connect the systems you already run. If one of them is the bottleneck, we will say so and our Controls Systems Implementation service can help.

Can you check our contractors’ schedule files automatically?

Yes. Every XER or MPP that arrives can be scored against DCMA-style checks and compared with the previous update before anyone reports from it.

Is our data safe?

Your data stays in your environment wherever possible, with access set by role. We work within your IT and security rules.

We run a program of similar projects. Does the model carry over?

Yes. The data model and pipelines are built once and reused for each new project, which is exactly what a Program Rate is for.
