Intelligent Project Controls Platform
— By practitioners. For practitioners. —

Complex infrastructure.
Complete intelligence. Not just a schedule — a strategic weapon.

VEDAM unifies CPM scheduling, earned value management, parametric estimation, and AI-driven diagnostics in a single, purpose-built platform — giving project teams the visibility to act before delays become crises.

The Problem We Solve

Most delays are visible
only after it's too late

By the time a schedule slip appears in a status report, the window to recover has already closed. Traditional tools report the past — VEDAM reveals the future.

The Problem
Fragmented, reactive controls
Schedule, cost, and reports live in separate tools. Status reports are assembled manually, weeks late. By the time a risk is visible, the critical path has shifted.
The Gap
No intelligence layer
Scheduling tools compute float — they cannot tell you which activities are days from becoming critical, or that a procurement lead time is now controlling your finish date.
The Solution
VEDAM — one platform, full intelligence
CPM engine + EVM + parametric estimation + AI diagnostics + auto-narrative — unified in a single interface. No switching tools. No manual reporting.
41.6%
of centrally-monitored infrastructure projects in India were delayed as of March 2024 — still significantly higher than the pre-pandemic figure of 27.1%.

Schedule Intelligence

Your schedule knows
things you don't yet

VEDAM's intelligence engine runs a full diagnostic on every CPM computation — not just reporting what happened, but what's about to happen.

⚠️
Negative Float DetectionFlags activities with infeasible constraints before they cause cascading delays across the critical path.
🔶
Near-Critical WatchMonitors activities within 5% of total float. Names the exact predecessor slippage that would push them critical.
🔗
Logic Integrity CheckDetects open ends — activities with no successors or predecessors — that corrupt float calculations.
📦
Procurement Risk RadarIsolates procurement activities on the critical path and computes their exact impact on project finish.
SCHEDULE INTELLIGENCE108 activities · 34 critical
⚠ 2 activities with negative float — project schedule is infeasible
⚠ 15 near-critical activities within 5% of total float — one slip cascades
◉ Procurement on critical path — 2 activities have zero float
🔗 15 activities have no successors — schedule logic may be incomplete
🔴
Immediate Action
Infeasible constraints detected
2 activities cannot finish within their late finish date: "Project Brief & Scope Confirmation" (−6d), "Design Brief & Technical Parameters" (−4d). Review predecessor logic or constraint dates.
🟡
Near-Critical Watch
15 activities within days of becoming critical
"Interlocking & Equipment Room Fit-Out" has only 1d of float. Any predecessor slippage by 2d joins the critical path and moves the finish date.
🔵
31% Critical Density
Testing & Commissioning has zero buffer
10 T&C activities on critical path with no float. Every day of delay is a day of project delay — no recovery without resequencing.
CPM Scheduler

a living programme

Full forward and backward pass, float computation, baseline comparison, and real-time critical path updates as data dates advance.
