Primavera P6 Schedule Updating Services

Keep the project schedule connected to actual progress. Wiznic World updates Primavera P6 schedules using agreed progress information, a defined data date, and a consistent approach to reporting remaining work and milestone changes.

A progress update should explain what has happened and what the current plan means for the work ahead. It needs reliable site inputs, a clear reporting cut-off, and visibility of assumptions rather than unexplained changes to dates.

What the Service Covers

  • Progress collection: Agree a progress template and identify who supplies actual dates, quantities, and remaining-work information.
  • Schedule updating: Enter agreed actual progress and remaining durations using the project reporting cut-off.
  • Milestone comparison: Compare current forecasts with the baseline or previous update and identify significant movements.
  • Remaining-work review: Discuss the effect of changed work fronts, interfaces, resources, and incomplete activities.
  • Reporting handover: Issue the updated schedule and narrative in the agreed reporting format.

Deliverables to Agree Before Work Starts

The final scope, level of detail, file formats, and review arrangements are agreed in the proposal. Depending on that scope, the package can include:

  • Updated Primavera P6 schedule and PDF layouts.
  • Milestone movement summary against the agreed reference.
  • Progress narrative and list of information gaps.
  • Look-ahead schedule when included.
  • Update assumptions and revision record.

How We Work With Your Team

  1. Agree the reporting frequency, data date, responsibilities, and required outputs.
  2. Receive progress information from your site or project team.
  3. Update the schedule and discuss exceptions or missing inputs.
  4. Issue the update package and record matters requiring a decision.

Information We Need

The current P6 file, approved baseline where available, previous update, reporting cut-off, actual start/finish dates, remaining durations, progress quantities where relevant, and known changes to the work plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a schedule be updated?

The reporting cycle should match the contract and the pace of the work. Weekly or monthly updates can be discussed; the frequency is agreed before work begins.

Can you update a schedule created by another planner?

We first review the file, structure, settings, and available records. Any corrections needed before routine updates are identified and scoped separately.

Does an update establish entitlement to an extension of time?

A routine progress update records schedule information. A contractual delay assessment is a separate scope and depends on the contract and supporting records.
