Project Scheduler

Capital project and revamp scheduling with WBS structure, Gantt charts, milestone tracking, multi-discipline resource loading, and S-curve progress reporting.

Module 08 · Overview

Project Scheduler

Project Scheduler is built for the long-horizon refinery project — grassroots builds, unit revamps, capacity expansions, and engineering studies. WBS structure, Gantt charts, multi-discipline resource loading, cost tracking (actual vs. budget), and S-curve progress reporting — all with refinery-specific phase logic (FEED, detailed engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning) baked in.

Why It Wins

Capital project overruns are endemic. Project engineers managing $50M–$500M programs use MS Project with no refinery-specific logic or cost integration. A scheduler built around refinery project phases speaks directly to the project team's workflow.

Use Cases

Project Scheduler in Action

Scenario
PHRT Phase 1 execution
The project team executes a refinery restart through FEED → detailed engineering → procurement → construction → commissioning. Project Scheduler tracks each phase with refinery-specific logic, cost integration, and S-curve reporting for management.
Scenario
Capital revamp planning
A $75M FCC revamp is being scoped. The team builds the schedule with WBS templates, loads resources, integrates procurement lead times, and produces the executive S-curve for the board.
Scenario
Engineering study tracking
Multiple parallel engineering studies are tracked in one place — progress, cost, and resource loading visible to management without spreadsheet aggregation.
