The schedule quality metric evaluates the structural integrity of you schedule and takes into factor key industry standard metrics to determine whether or not the schedule is structurally sound and feasible.

This metric is key to ensure that your project’s schedule is sufficient to manage the project. It is important to review the Schedule Quality throughout the entire project to ensure that the integrity is not compromised as the project progresses increasing the risk of delays and overruns.

Identifying Historical Critical Path and calculating is one of the most challenging calculations in all of construction and we have automated it!

This metric tells you how many days of actual critical path delay the project has suffered to date.  Behind this metric is an in depth delay analysis complete with a delay table and schedule summary that review, analyze and/or drill down on.

Critical Path Delay

The future recovery of a schedule captures the remediation efforts that have been put in place by the scheduler in order to recover time from the delays that have occurred thus far and bring the project completion date back in.

This is done by manipulating activity durations and logical structure of the schedule. It is very important to validate this feasibility of these changes in order to not jeopardize the future of the project.

Critical Changes

The end date variance of a schedule captures the diversion of the current schedule completion date from the baseline schedule completion date.  If the schedule was to progress as shown in the latest schedule update, the schedule will complete this many days later than originally planned. 

The schedule compression captures the amount of effort remaining in the schedule as compared to the baseline.  A high schedule compression reduces the feasibility of completing the project on time, unless realistic future recovery has been put in place. 

SmartPM's forecasted completion date uses a proprietary AI based algorithm based on current progress to give a realistic estimate of what the completion date of the schedule should be given things progress as they have thus far.  The scheduled completion date shows the completion date based on the current schedule update
