What this service covers
Critical Path Method baseline, update, and recovery schedules.
CPM scheduling produces an activity-by-activity construction plan with logic ties, durations, and resources. We deliver in Primavera P6 (most large projects) or MS Project (mid-size and federal). Schedule is fully resource-loaded so it can be progressed against actual production and used for earned-value reporting.
How we work
Every cpm scheduling services engagement starts with a free scope review — typically within 4 business hours of receiving your documents. We confirm the deliverable scope, turnaround, and fee before any work starts. Estimates and takeoffs are produced by US-based senior estimators with a minimum of seven years on the discipline in question, then reviewed by a second estimator before delivery.
Deliverables ship in your preferred format — PDF, Excel, your estimating software’s native file, or a custom client template. Bid-day clarifications during your bid submission window are handled in under an hour.
Why outsource this work
Outsourced specialty estimating gives contractors access to senior trade-specific capacity without the fixed cost of a full-time hire. The economics are simple: a senior in-house estimator costs $90K-$150K/year fully loaded; outsourced per-project work is paid as it’s used. For shops with irregular bid volume or specialty trades they bid only occasionally, the math heavily favors outsourcing.
