ViViAD provide expert tender planning services to help you submit competitive and credible bids. Our team develops logic-driven, contract-compliant programmes tailored to the requirements of each tender. Clients often approach us when under pressure to meet submission deadlines or when they need to strengthen their bid with a well-structured and realistic programme that reflects the project’s complexity and risk.

Our planners support the development of fully linked, resource-loaded project programmes across all phases - from design to commissioning. These programmes form the foundation for successful project execution, progress monitoring, and interface management. This service is ideal for clients seeking to align fragmented project plans or who need detailed schedules to coordinate multiple trades or subcontractors effectively.

ViViAD provide accurate and timely programme updates that reflect true site progress. These updates are critical to tracking performance against baseline, managing delays, and maintaining stakeholder confidence. Clients typically request this service when their current progress data is outdated, inconsistent, or insufficiently detailed to inform effective decision-making.

Our reporting services convert complex programme data into clear, structured reports tailored to project teams, executive leadership, and external stakeholders. Whether you require Gantt charts, dashboards, or narrative summaries, we ensure your reports drive understanding and action. Many clients come to us when their current reports are data-heavy but insight-poor or when clients demand higher-quality reporting.

ViViAD conduct logic-driven scenario analysis to help you explore “what-if” options and assess the implications of key decisions, such as resequencing works, changing resources, or absorbing delay events. This service is particularly valuable when clients face project delays, design changes, or shifting constraints and need to evaluate realistic alternatives before committing to a new course of action.

Our recovery planning services help bring delayed or disrupted projects back on track. We identify the root causes of delay, develop mitigation strategies, and produce updated programmes that reflect achievable recovery paths. Clients often seek our support when facing contractual pressure to recover lost time, or when their own recovery plans lack clarity, logic, or stakeholder buy-in.

ViViAD offer detailed shutdown planning for projects where temporary halts to operations must be tightly controlled and time-bound. Our plans ensure precise sequencing and coordination across multiple parties, reducing the risk of overrun or operational disruption. This service is essential for clients managing complex outages, turnarounds, or changeovers where any delay can have significant financial or safety consequences.

ViViAD integrate time and space by linking project programmes with 3D models, creating 4D simulations that visually represent construction sequencing. This enhances communication, detects spatial conflicts, and supports better planning decisions. Clients often request 4D planning when stakeholders need clearer visualisation of works, or where logistical constraints in tight environments demand high-level coordination.

ViViAD develop interactive dashboards that bring your programme data to life. Through Power BI and similar tools, we provide real-time insights into progress, trends, and key performance indicators. This service is ideal for clients struggling with static reports or those seeking to empower leadership with accessible, real-time decision support.

Our team conducts detailed analysis of programmes to verify logic integrity, critical path validity, float ownership, and delay exposure. Using tools such as Acumen Fuse and forensic review techniques, we help clients ensure their schedules are robust and defensible. This service is commonly used when clients require assurance before submission, dispute resolution, or audit.

ViVIAD support the maintenance of structured project records - including progress evidence, delay logs, and as-built data, aligned with the programme. These records are crucial for defending or pursuing entitlement to time. Clients typically engage us when their documentation is fragmented or inadequate to support claims or when they anticipate disputes and want to proactively prepare.

Our planners help implement lean methods, including the Last Planner System, to improve planning reliability, reduce waste, and foster collaboration among trades. Through structured lookahead planning and team commitment tracking, we drive smoother workflows. This service is often sought by clients experiencing poor coordination, productivity issues, or misalignment between site activities and programme expectations.

ViViAD deliver targeted training to build internal capabilities in programme development, delay analysis, and software tools. From one-off workshops to structured training programmes, we equip your team with the skills to manage schedules more effectively. Clients often request this service when building in-house planning capability or when transitioning to new systems or standards.
