Powerproject is an easy to use, cost effective yet powerful project management tool that was designed by construction professionals.

Whether you are responsible for managing a single project, or a portfolio of projects, Powerproject provides you with the ability to easily build a schedule or import schedules created in other planning tools or in Excel. Powerproject BIM lets you connect your schedule to a 3D model to create a 4D or 5D presentation of your project. If you have always wanted an easy way of progressing your project then Powersoft’s Site Mobile Progress application lets your team progress the schedule from anywhere.

Powerproject is used by more than 100,000 users worldwide.

Powerproject is an easy to use, cost effective powerful construction planning & project management tool that you can use to prioritise, plan, and manage your development projects. Whether you are managing a small project or a programme of large, related projects, Powerproject gives you complete control, enabling you to make decisions based on the most up-to-date information. Whether you use Powerproject as a stand-alone project management solution or as a program management solution used by any number of people, you always have access to the project information you need.

How can Powerproject help your project team?

Powerproject BIM

Use the power of 4D construction project planning for more rigorous scheduling or you can now create your project plan directly from your 3D model.

Link tasks to 3D model components and use the visual power of 4D. Import costs from your estimating tool to easily create a 5D schedule

  • Identify problems that may not be visible via traditional schedules
  • Run scenarios to assess feasibility of execution and find the best solutions
  • Study how the build process will appear at different stages through the project
  • View progress in 3D and visually compare planned versus actual
  • Work seamlessly with plan and model in one application
  • See the impact in the 3D view as you update the Gantt chart

“It is so easy and straightforward to generate a 4D visualization of the program.”

  • See the impact in 3D as you update the Gantt chart
  • Control costs, income and cash flow across multiple projects
  • Allocate and track resources across multiple projects
  • Create reports across multiple projects in your portfolio
  • Integrate 3D models into the planning process, to create a 4D schedule.

Delivering relevant information to all involved in the BIM process is a key tenet, supported through the use of the Enterprise suite.

“We needed the track resources and cash-flow within the whole contract.”

PowerProject Site Progress Mobile

Easy job site to office, construction project progress reporting from your mobile app.

Record project progress quickly and easily via mobile devices.

The Site Progress Mobile app works directly with Powerproject to enable flexible, site-to-office progress reporting to record project progress quickly and easily via mobile devices.

Site Progress Mobile is a downloadable app which enables mobile users to record the progress of tasks and repetitive events from a remote location against their work as scheduled in a Powerproject project plan.

Each user sees only the relevant tasks and progress check lists for which they have responsibility and is able to add notes and photographs to each task update.

Flexible site-to-office progress reporting that enables you to:

  • Update progress at any time, from any location – without having to open Powerproject
  • Improve data accuracy by removing the need for re-keying of updates
  • Export tasks to mobile devices based on resource assignments
  • Record actual start/finish dates, percentage complete and remaining duration
  • Review reported progress and approve/reject submission, before applying to program

“The beauty of Site Progress Mobile is that the data collected with your phone can be downloaded directly into the program. It removed a laborious task and the potential for errors from having to input data manually.”

Peter Farmer, Senior Planning Engineer, Interserve
