One page leaders read and act on.

Executive reporting and dashboards built from the schedule and cost data, not retyped from them. Milestones at risk, float trends, SPI and CPI, EAC and the decisions needed this month, on one page that ties back to the detail.

Leaders hear about it last.

01

Green until it is red

Status colors stay green until the month a milestone fails, when every option left is an expensive one.

02

Reports built by hand

Numbers retyped from P6 and the cost system into slides. They arrive late and disagree with the source.

03

Detail without a decision

Thirty pages of charts and no clear ask of the people who could act on them.

What Beck Franklin does

How we build reporting.

  1. 01

    Start from the decisions

    We ask what leadership decides each month, then design the report around those decisions.

  2. 02

    Pull from the source

    Dashboards fed directly from P6 and cost data, so the numbers match the files every time.

  3. 03

    Trends over snapshots

    Milestone float, SPI, CPI and EAC shown over time, because direction matters more than a single reading.

  4. 04

    Days and dollars, not colors

    Float and variance stated in numbers, with thresholds that trigger a named action.

  5. 05

    Every figure traceable

    Each number on the page ties to the activities and cost codes underneath it.

What you walk away with.

Scoped to your project. Native files and plain-English outputs that stay yours when we leave.

Timing

When to call us.

The earlier we see the schedule, the more options you keep.

01

Reports take a week

Your team spends more time assembling reports than reading them.

02

The board was surprised

A slip reached leadership before the report did.

03

No common view

Every project reports differently, so nothing can be compared.

04

Outsiders want evidence

A lender or agency needs reporting that will stand up to questions.

Straight answers to fair questions.

What tools do you use?

Where possible, the tools you already have, including Power BI and Excel, fed from P6 and your cost system.

Will this replace our monthly report?

Usually it shortens it. The detail stays available. The front page gets sharper.

Can it include contractor schedules?

Yes, if they follow a coding standard. We can write that standard into the contracts.

How long does setup take?

It depends on how clean the source data is. We check the data first and then give you a timeline.
