The purpose of this module is to provide the field supervisor with a simple tool for measuring progress on a day to day or weekly basis.
The Construction Progress (CPS) module measures and monitors on-site detail construction progress. It uses the data generated by the Estimating (EST) module and the dates from the schedule (SCH) modules to establish the baseline BCWS.
Actual progress is calculated using the earned value concept. By entering the percent complete for each activity, the CPS calculates the actual progress at any level of the WBS/Facility, package, discipline, or responsibility, as well as for the overall job. Percentages can be based on pre-establish criteria providing an easy audit.
Progress can be displayed in table or graphic format. Actual pictures of the work-in-progress can be stored in the database to illustrate the status of the construction work.
Progress can be recorded daily, weekly or monthly.
Other features available include tracking of safety information, site conditions and quality control.
This module is especially suitable for fast-track projects where construction progress reporting on a daily is required.
