Financial Impact Analysis

Every schedule delay is automatically linked to its budget impact. See the financial consequences of risks in real-time and protect your bottom line.

How It Works

Schedule Integration: Cost data is parsed from P6 schedule metadata during ingestion
Activity Linking: Observations are automatically linked to specific schedule activities
Impact Calculation: Delays are multiplied by activity cost rates to calculate exposure
Real-Time Alerts: Financial exposure is calculated and surfaced in the Intelligence Feed

Key Features

💵 Automatic Cost Parsing

Extract cost codes and budgets directly from P6 schedule imports. No manual data entry required.

📈 Delay-to-Cost Mapping

Every day of delay equals calculated budget exposure. See the financial impact of schedule slippage instantly.

📊 Cumulative Impact

Track total financial risk across all activities. Understand your aggregate exposure at a glance.

🚨 Threshold Alerts

Get notified when exposure exceeds defined limits. Proactively manage budget risks.

Use Cases

Budget Protection: Identify which delays pose the greatest financial risk to your project
Prioritization: Triage risks by financial impact, not just schedule criticality
Stakeholder Reporting: Show executives the dollar value of project risks with concrete numbers
Proactive Mitigation: Address high-cost delays before they escalate into major budget overruns

Example Scenario

A 3-day delay is detected on Activity A-1050 (Foundation Pour). The activity has a cost code of €15,000/day. Forge automatically calculates the financial exposure: €45,000. This appears in the Intelligence Feed with a high-priority alert, allowing the PM to immediately assess whether mitigation is worth the cost.
