EPC projects fail not because of bad schedules — they fail because the data behind the schedule is scattered, unverifiable, and impossible to audit. EPCplanner was built to solve exactly that.
Primavera P6 is the industry standard for CPM scheduling — and it should remain so. But P6 was designed for Level 3 schedule logic, not for tracking 30,000 to 50,000 individual engineering documents, procurement line items, and subcontractor deliverables.
When planners track every document revision and procurement step inside P6, the schedule explodes — becoming slow, unmanageable, and impossible to baseline meaningfully.
Engineering, procurement, and subcontract progress is tracked in separate spreadsheets by separate teams — with no reconciliation mechanism and no period lock.
Closed-period figures can be silently edited. There is no immutable log of who changed what and when. Delay analysis and claims become contested and unreliable.
EPCplanner takes Level 4/5 register detail completely out of P6 and places it inside a dedicated, structured database. P6 is kept clean at 5,000–10,000 Level 3 CPM activities where it belongs.
Progress calculated inside EPCplanner's Engineering, Procurement, and Subcontract registers is algorithmically rolled up and pushed back into P6 as physical percent complete — maintaining a live, bidirectional link between the register and the master schedule.
"EPCplanner carries the deep operational detail inside a structured register database and feeds synchronized progress seamlessly back to P6."
5,000–10,000 activities. Network logic, critical path, resource loading. P6 stays clean and fast.
Engineering docs, PR lines, subcontract deliverables. Stage gates, IDC checks, period locks, audit log.
Calculated physical percent complete and remaining durations are pushed from EPCplanner directly back into P6 activities after every update cycle.
EPCplanner was designed by a Project Controls professional with 28+ years of hands-on experience across contractor, client, and PMC roles on multi-billion-dollar offshore and onshore projects.
