Look-Ahead Programming
Look-ahead programming provides detailed information on where and when your team will be engaged on certain activities. Based on the latest available information, this programme is highly accurate and allows the Project Manager and Supervisors to plan the works with confidence.
100% Project Coverage
Utilising the latest project registers as a base, you can be certain that every aspect of the scope has been considered in the development of the Look-ahead programme.
Up-to-date registers and forecast based on best available project information ensures a solid grounding for your programme.
90-Day Look-Ahead Programming
The 90-day look-ahead programme facilitates accurate and detailed near-term works programme to allow you to plan your works and interfaces with confidence.
The long-term 90-day look-ahead makes it possible to visualise work-load peaks with sufficient time to meet resource requirement.
Contractual Programming Interface
Working with Programmers Professionals can often be time-consuming and thankless task. PDI Forecasting provides a direct interface with the Contract Programme so that the master programme is easily and accurately updated with relevant information.
The interface gives all information your Programming Professionals require to update the Contract Programme while freeing up your leadership team to focus on more important aspects.
Resource Planning
PDI Forecasting Look-Ahead Programme includes automated histogram development that allows the user to determine resource peaks immediately.
With our intuitive UI, the user can quickly sort activities to level the resources and be confident that the works will be conducted within allocated timeframes.
Scope change automatically captured
Changes are expected in project registers. Therefore, it is important that all input information is preserved when pulling in the latest register information.
Our programme preserves all information and completely redevelops the forecast with every run of the programme. This ensures that any change to scope reflected in the registers is automatically accounted for.
Based on best available information
One of the major shortfalls of current programming on major projects is the disconnect between reality and the programme. This often results in a lack of buy-in by the project team and resultant slippage of project programme.
Basing the programme look-ahead and Contract Programme on the best available information at that point in time is essential to the accuracy and success of your project programme.
Why PDI Forecasting
PDI Forecasting is an Excel JavaScript Add-In for progress measurement, forecasting, reporting and look-ahead programming and programme interface.
The UI has been designed to ensure the highest level of accuracy in forecasting, while minimising the overhead to setup and maintain.
PDI Forecasting seamlessly converts any excel list, register, or schedule into an industry-leading project controls application and manages change in the underlying documents.
RNM Professionals can set up your instance of PDI Forecasting, which is then used by your Project Team for recording progress and expenditure.
Once setup PDI Forecasting automatically and accurately forecast resources required to complete the project, produce look-ahead programmes, and provides detailed reports.
The accuracy of PDI Forecasting increases as the project progresses. This facilitates highly accurate forecasting in the critical stages of contract interfacing and project completion.
