Recovery Scheduling
Recovery plans that restore control of late programs: diagnosed quickly, built on what is physically achievable and agreed by every party who must fund or deliver them.
When the date is slipping and confidence has gone, a credible way back.
Every late program has a meeting where everyone knows the date will not hold and nobody yet knows what to do. That pause is the most expensive interval in construction. Each week it lasts, recovery costs more and the options narrow.
We arrive with independent eyes and a fixed cadence. Within days we establish where time was truly lost, separate what can be recovered from what cannot, and build a recovery schedule around acceleration that is real: resequencing, added shifts, changed methods, targeted scope decisions. Each option is costed. Then we track the plan weekly, preserving the record of delay so entitlement is not lost while you recover.
What we bring to Recovery Scheduling
Senior practitioners, proven method and the right technology, specified line by line.
Rapid diagnosis
A forensic read of current status and driving paths in the first days of the engagement.
INCLUDEDRecovery options
Acceleration, resequencing and scope options evaluated for time bought, cost and risk.
INCLUDEDBuildable re-planning
Recovery schedules developed with the trades who must execute them, not handed down to them.
INCLUDEDCost of acceleration
Labor, premium time and logistics cost of each option set out clearly for decision.
INCLUDEDStakeholder agreement
The recovery strategy taken through owners, lenders and contractors to a signed position.
INCLUDEDWeekly command
Tracking against recovery milestones, with escalation the moment one is threatened.
INCLUDEDA clear path, milestone by milestone.
Every engagement follows a disciplined sequence, so you always know what happens next and why.

Technology we work in
Platform-fluent and vendor-independent. We work inside your environment, or recommend the one that fits.
What changes when we arrive.
Not activity. Results your board, your lenders and your teams can feel.
A realistic completion, recovered wherever recovery is physically possible.
Acceleration money directed where it moves the critical path.
Owners, lenders and teams willing to plan around the schedule again.
What leaders ask us first.
Straight answers. If yours isn't logged here, raise it with us directly. A principal will respond.
How fast can you mobilize on a troubled program?
Usually within days. A senior planner starts with the native schedule and a site walk, and a first diagnostic read follows within the first week.
Is recovery the same as a delay claim?
No, though they are connected. Recovery looks forward to protect the date. We also preserve the contemporaneous record, so entitlement for the delay is not compromised along the way.
What if the date simply cannot be met?
We say so early and plainly, with the most credible alternative and the evidence behind it. A defensible new date is worth far more than an indefensible old one.
Schedule Updates
Disciplined periodic updates that capture verified progress, explain every movement and keep the schedule an instrument of command rather than a record of hope.
Critical Path Analysis
Rigorous analysis of critical and near-critical paths that shows leadership exactly where attention and money will move the date, and where they will not.
Schedule Health Assessment
Independent diagnostics against DCMA 14-Point, GAO and AACE practice that tell you, in days, how far a schedule can be relied upon and what it will take to fix it.
Command the date you announced.
Book a 45-minute program review with a senior principal. You will leave with an independent read of where your schedule and cost really stand, and the three moves that matter most.
