As projects get underway, the construction schedule needs to be progressed and updated to develop an as-built schedule. This as-built schedule will be used to notify the owner of the current status of the project and alert the subcontractors of upcoming work items. The contractor will also utilise the as-built schedule – for comparing to the baseline schedule to analyse variances from the initial schedule, as well as from month to month

In addition, the baseline and the as-built schedules can be utilised to perform Time Impact Analysis (TIA) to document and justify time extensions. Powerproject allows the users to identify and document new tasks, identify the impacts on the completion date, develop the fragnet, compare to the baseline, and print as documentation for time extension requests.

This webinar will focus on the ease with which Powerproject enables the users to develop a TIA.

• Develop the baseline process
• Discuss which schedule to use
• Adding new tasks or splitting existing tasks for the impacts and changes
• Coding to document new task and fragnet
• Analyze the effect on the project completion date
• Printing to show the fragnet to request the time extension.

The challenges of project planning/scheduling on many infrastructure and maintenance projects (e.g. roads, railways, pipelines, etc.) depends not only on what things happen but also where they happen

The location is often a key driver in how the project needs to be organised. It is impossible to meet that parameter with the classic project planning systems (e.g. P6, Powerproject, Microsoft Project, etc.) and you need to understand and use the Time-Chainage (Linear Planning, March charts, etc.) technique.

Join Elecosoft’s 30-minute webinar to find out more. The experienced presenter understands the challenges of construction planning and will show how, with TILOS, you can use the distance component to fully define the scope of work and plan in a new way.

Most components in an MEP design is connected to something, a socket normally to a wall or floor, a light fitting to a wall or ceiling, so it is important for your Revit MEP Families to be hosted when inserting them into the model

This prevents the object just ‘floating’ in the 3D space and ensuring that the object is position correctly both in the 3rd dimension as well as the Plan 2D view.

This session will focus on the following:

• Converting non-hosted Families to hosted
• Working with Face based hosting
• Understanding hosting with a proximity setting

Effective management of the “as built” environment is a critical element to ensure minimal downtime. Downtime does not discriminate and can affect all businesses with substantial cost implications

It is therefore vitally important to have systems and processes in place to manage this and maintain continuity. Interestingly, (according to a Gartner report), only 25% of UK SME’s and 27% of larger enterprise businesses have business continuity plans in-place.

When minimising downtime it’s important to be able to quickly find and access the information. According to a McKinsey report employee’s spend on average 1.8 hours every day searching. That’s 9.3 hours every week and approx. 445 hours every year. At first glance this has a profound impact on efficiency and costs such as wages. If you analyse the true costs you will understand it goes a lot further than that as it can also impact output, sales, revenue and margins.

To help effectively manage your facility, Graitec is hosting a live webinar to demonstrate how Opentree can help you to have:

• A single secure location for all drawing and documents
• Managed folder structures
• Drawings and documents filled away in the correct folders
• Data Standards, ensure the correct information is present
• Good accurate meta data for searching on
• Maintain control of your intellectual property
• Information continuity
• Process workflows
• In-depth auditing
• Version and revision management

Your webinar hosts will be:

– Gary Edwards (Head of Sales UK for Opentree) – Discussing commercial examples and uses of Opentree.

– Daniel Taylor-North (Product Manager for Opentree) – Live demonstration of the Opentree software with Revit examples.

Join Gateley’s live webinar as we take you through the dos and don’ts of representing yourself

Often seen as a “pay now, argue later” process, adjudication is normally used to resolve construction disputes, as the parties to a construction contract cannot contract out of it.

Adjudication is designed to safeguard cash flow for businesses by stopping one side from withholding payments from the other for long periods of time. But how do you go about representing yourself in an adjudication, what are the pitfalls to avoid and are there any benefits to “doing it yourself”?

Gateley’s live webinar will take you through the dos and don’ts of representing yourself and give you a keen insight into what an adjudicator will look for. Taken from a lawyer’s perspective and that of the adjudicator too, we will look at:

• What is the process for “DIY adjudication”?
• Obstacles for a claimant (and the adjudicator) to navigate.
• What does an adjudicator want to see, and conversely, what should you avoid?

Many contractors have staff working on large civil and infrastructure projects using software outside of their controlled Oracle Primavera P6 master programme, such as MS Excel and MS Project. Often this is because they find P6 too complex or costly for those outside the core planning team to use, such as when developing short-term programmes that expand on the level of detail held in the master programme

Whatever the reason, getting data exported, updated and imported back into P6 leads to errors and inaccuracies; breaking the link between the master programme and the individual project. These products are also not tailored to the environment in which they are used, as well as often costing more than is first thought.

This webinar will show you how you can check out sections of a project from P6 and update the schedule with a user-friendly interface within a cost-effective solution.

Elecosoft’s experienced presenter will show you how many organisations are increasingly working with Powerproject as a better user experience and how you can:

• Check out data from Primavera P6 into Powerproject
• Update progress easily – including via mobile devices on site
• Print reports for easy communication
