From your own as-built projects, with durations set from real crew productivity.
One CPM engine, checked against Primavera P6 — for the superintendent, the scheduler and the project manager, from the first baseline to the final update.
Tell us about the job. In a free 30-minute consultation, a FinitePath scheduling engineer goes through your scope, drawings and dates with you and shows how the baseline comes together. If it’s a fit, our consultant visits your office to take it forward.
A FinitePath engineer builds the baseline with your superintendent and project team — from your drawings, specs, BOQ and past schedules. And we stay after the build, with support through every update.
Productivity, sequencing and more: durations tested against crew output, logic checked for open ends and loops, calendars and holidays confirmed — before it reaches your kick-off meeting.
How do you build a schedule? Learn it step by step with the FinitePath PERT method: start from your WBS and finish with a linked, CPM-calculated schedule.
Start from what your company has already built. FinitePath ranks your as-built projects by fit, carries their structure and logic across, and lets the field set the durations before anyone presses F9.
Any tool can shorten a bar. The question a planner has to answer is what was spent to do it — whose float, which handoffs, how much risk moved onto the trades behind. FinitePath compresses and shows the bill in the same view, so the decision is made with both numbers on screen instead of one.
Center — the baseline as seeded. No overlap added or removed. Drag right to compress by spending float, or left to add buffer between crew handoffs.
Flags activities whose durations don’t hold up — AACE proportionality violations, activities needing decomposition. Every finding is a proposal you accept or reject.
Forensic closes — as-planned, as-built to date, or closed at a review date.
Rewires crew handoffs across a WBS branch and shows the variant against the baseline ghost, with the float it consumed.
An order-of-magnitude estimate of recoverable days, ranked by priority — labeled as an estimate, because that is what it is.
Nothing here commits itself. Every optimization is a variant sitting beside your baseline. You compare it, promote it or discard it — and a recovery figure is always labeled an estimate, never a date the engine cannot defend after a re-run.
A delay claim is only as strong as the baseline it is measured from. Because your team built and approved it in FinitePath, every update can be compared back to it — and the delay can be measured, not argued.
Every update is kept against the approved baseline. See the days gained or lost between updates and the activities that drove them.
Insert a delay fragnet, re-run the CPM and measure the effect on the contract completion date.
Each delay marked excusable, non-excusable or concurrent, with the basis noted.
Windows, TIA and a written narrative from the same numbers — for negotiation, mediation or arbitration.
Built from the saved F9 calculation — the same numbers as the schedule, not a spreadsheet assembled the night before. Every figure traces back to an activity, and anything the data cannot support prints a diagnostic code instead of a number.
Engine changes are tested against their own CPM rules and against P6’s own results before they ship. A baseline your team builds here holds up when the owner’s scheduler opens it.

Set durations from your crews, not someone else’s guess — and see the plan before kick-off, not at it.
Build the baseline with your team — or with ours — run F9 at every update, and send the owner a report from the same numbers.
Consistent baselines across jobs, schedule health checks, and an honest monthly status.
Every update kept against the approved baseline: windows, time impact analysis and a delay package.
