Forge reads your project documents, extracts signals and governing rules, resolves delay attribution, and computes net contractual exposure. Automatically.
Contractual Risk Intelligence for CPM-Mature Construction Projects • Currently in beta
Concurrent Delay Swept
Neutralized: 4.2dOwner redesign overlapped with contractor delivery slippage. Net exposure neutralized.
Critical Signal Found
Potential: €15k/dayClause 8.7 penalty triggered by potential Milestone 2 slippage.
Delay Attribution
Confidence: 92%Mar 03 Weather Event identified. Responsibility: Shared / Force Majeure.
Most teams find out they’re exposed too late.
Delays are concurrent, penalties are contractual, and evidence lives in thousands of unstructured documents.
Concurrent delays hide real liability
Standard tools sum all delays into gross exposure. But when the Owner and Contractor overlap, only one party is truly liable. Getting this wrong destroys margin.
Penalties live in clause 8.7, not the dashboard
Liquidated damages, milestone penalties, and weather entitlements are buried in contracts — disconnected from the CPM schedule causing the exposure.
Attribution is the battle
Without a deterministic link between a delay event, its responsible party, and the contract rule it triggers, you have no commercial argument.
The Reasoning Pipeline
From raw documents to net contractual exposure. Deterministically.
Extract
Ingest P6 schedules and project documents. Extract Signals (events) and Constraints (governing rules like LDs, milestone penalties, notice windows).
Attribute
Link each signal to the responsible party (Owner, Contractor) and project its causal delay interval onto the influenced CPM activity.
Anchor
Propagate delay intervals upstream. Multi-path analysis computes 'Risk Pressure' and 'Ghost Bars' — visualizing latent schedule fragility before it hits the critical path.
Prioritize
Apply urgency heuristics to surface 'Act Now' signals. Group drivers by contractual severity and potential financial exposure.
From information system
to reasoning engine.
Forge doesn't just read documents. It evaluates rules, interprets causality, resolves conflicts, and computes financial consequences.
Net vs Gross Exposure
Most tools sum every delay to get gross exposure. Forge uses a concurrent sweep algorithm to neutralize overlapping owner and contractor delays — showing the penalty that is truly chargeable.
Dual Exposure Breakdown
The executive dashboard separates Contractual Penalties (LDs) from Operational Burn. Executives see the sword hanging over the project, not just the internal accounting.
Constraint-Aware Penalties
Contract rules (Liquidated Damages, milestone penalties, weather entitlements) are extracted from documents and stored as typed constraints. Penalties apply only when the constraint is actually triggered.
Delay Attribution
Every signal is attributed to its responsible party — Contractor, Owner, Third Party, or Force Majeure — by the LLM using contextual language. The confidence of each attribution is tracked.
Risk Pressure Layer
Forge adds a high-definition "Ghost Bar" layer over your P6 schedule. It visualizes exactly where risk is forming — even if the current Critical Path hasn't shifted yet.
Automated Urgency Scoring
Not all signals are equal. Forge categorizes every risk into "Act Now", "Monitor", or "Watch" tiers based on float proximity, contractual LD rates, and attribution confidence.
Real-time CPM Simulation
Forge integrates a true Critical Path Method engine. Resolving a delay instantly re-calculates exact float deltas, critical path shifts, and new projected end dates.
Executive PDF Engine
Dynamically compile live project intelligence into a pixel-perfect, boardroom-ready A4 PDF. Headless rendering ensures your executive briefings are always mathematically sound and immaculately formatted.
Built for Real Scenarios
See how Forge helps project managers prevent budget overruns and defend against commercial claims.
Concurrent Delay Defense
Owner redesigns foundations. Contractor steel delivery also slips. Both impact the critical path.
Sweep algorithm detects overlap. Nets down contractor exposure by 4 concurrent days.
Penalty exposure reduced from €75k gross to €30k net. Defensible at arbitration.
Penalty Clause Extraction
LD clause buried in contract addendum: €15k/day after Milestone 2.
Constraint extracted, typed as MILESTONE_PENALTY, linked to the schedule milestone
Dashboard shows penalty exposure the moment Milestone 2 slippage is detected
Attribution Evidence Chain
Subcontractor claims conditions were owner-caused. Meeting minutes say otherwise.
Signal attributed CONTRACTOR with 0.92 confidence. Evidence trail locked with timestamp.
Claim rejected. Immutable causal record prevents commercial argument.
