Know which dates will slip before they do, and fix them.
nPlan's AI has watched more than a million real projects play out. It shows you where yours will lose time, why, and which interventions buy the most of it back, months ahead.
Planners and risk teams: Schedule Studio is free to start.
Works with your planning tools and your AI assistant.
Independent forecasts of major live projects.
Will the Chapelcross data centre campus finish on time?
Eight 120MW buildings in Scotland.
32% chance of hitting the planned date
Fixing every risk still leaves the campus a day late, so holding 7 March 2035 means changing the plan itself.
How we did it
Built the plan. From the planning application and public filings.
Projected every key date. Against more than a million real projects.
Found the reasons. Site set-up alone adds 86 days to the date.
Ran six scenarios. Three fixes, a stress test and two consent delays.
Will Disney’s new Cars Land open in 2030?
Disney’s new Cars-themed land at Magic Kingdom, Florida.
1% chance of hitting the planned date
On the current plan the land opens in the first half of 2031, so a phased opening is the only way to open in 2030.
How we did it
Built the plan. Eight phases from permits, filings and site reports.
Checked it against progress. Two dates reached, both as we projected.
Found the reasons. Ride testing and certification add 224 days.
Built a recovery plan. Eight interventions, each with its effect.
Will Darlington’s first small modular reactor be running by the end of 2030?
The first small modular reactor in the G7, in Ontario.
1% chance of hitting the working plan date
OPG’s end-2030 target leaves too little buffer. Six decisions win back 283 days, and four of them are due before 1 December 2026.
How we did it
Built the plan. From OPG’s filings with the energy regulator.
Projected every key date. Against more than a million real projects.
Checked it against progress. Nine dates reached. Ours was nearer on six.
Tested six decisions. Each with what it buys back and when to decide.
Will your project finish on time?
Send us your plan and the date that matters most, and we’ll run the same forecast on your project.
Share your plan in whatever format your planners already use, along with the date you care about.
We project every key date, with a first look ready in about 30 minutes.
We show what’s driving any delay, ranked by how much each reason moves your date.
We run the scenarios with your team, so you can see how much time each option buys back.
Your plan remains private to you, and nothing you upload is used to train the model unless you opt in.
The nPlan difference - a vast archive of past project data
The foundation of everything we’ve built is our dataset of more than 750,000 past project schedules - the largest collection of past programmes in the world, representing every capital project sector.
Why does it matter?
Past project schedules for retrospective analysis
With experience building projects for:
Highways
Rail
Public buildings
Commercial Buildings
Heavy infrastructure
Oil & Gas
Utilities
Data Centers

Applying nPlan’s AI capability at a portfolio oversight level allows us to quickly target our leadership interventions to the right areas across a large portfolio of projects, to mitigate risks to outcomes being delivered when they are needed.
Construction as an industry hasn’t had a comprehensive, systematic knowledge transfer mechanism. We look at nPlan as a productivity enabler to extract the knowledge and expertise embedded in the data that we’ve already captured across historical project schedules and activities. nPlan then contextually delivers that intelligence and insight in a way that improves the outcomes of new projects during their execution phase.
We brought nPlan into the fold, handed our schedule over to nPlan, at that point they’re able to really give us the step-change we were looking for, they gave us a lot of intelligence and insights around the schedule about its probability of success as you would expect out of any QSRA but they really helped us delve into the details of where the threats and opportunities were in the programme, the volatility, the spread of probability, so suddenly we found ourselves in a situation where we had a whole different mass of data we were going to use…
nPlan is a critical part of our strategy to ensure predictable delivery and provide effective oversight across our entire investment programme. By leveraging AI and historical data, we can make smarter, data-driven decisions.
The new and improved Driving Paths visualization in nPlan Schedule Studio is really outstanding. I use this feature to discover and explore multiple float paths for any target activity in our 17,000-activity schedule. It's a great visual aid for anyone who isn't satisfied with pages and pages of CPM printouts.
With nPlan as a delivery partner, we’re able to take a new approach to analysing our schedules - removing the human bias in favour of learning from actual data and historical performance - and driving efficiency into the process. Being able to get more frequent analysis done on a larger volume of schedules is a game-changer for us.
Challenging our team’s biases without emotion to identify potential project risk is the most insightful aspect of the nPlan results.
