Move from a P6 programme to a usable 3-week lookahead.
A master schedule drives dates; site execution needs a clear short-term work plan. SEQNCS turns schedule activities into an editable 3-week construction lookahead with daily manpower planning.
Available with SEQNCS PRO. Schedule files are parsed in your browser.
Bring planned work into the near-term window
Start with a Primavera P6 XER. The Lookahead workspace focuses on construction-related activities by default, using schedule metadata where available and description-based inference where classification is incomplete.
The proposed selection is a starting point, not a claim that the system can infer every project-specific work package. Review excluded activities and bring back relevant work when needed.
- Filter by building, discipline, contractor or other available grouping fields.
- Include relevant excluded activities or add manual activities.
- Keep the near-term plan linked to the master schedule context.
Edit what the construction team actually needs
Review scheduled activities, adjust operational fields and enter manpower by day. The workspace supports manpower values outside the activity window as deliberate planning entries, with visual distinction so exceptions remain apparent.
This is an editable execution view: site teams remain responsible for confirming interfaces, work fronts, access, constraints and feasible crew loading.
- Daily manpower and workforce summary.
- Manual activities and editable operational details.
- Visual weekend and out-of-window distinctions.
Issue outputs for coordination
Use the print preview and filters to prepare a landscape A3 PDF, or generate an editable Excel workbook for coordination with contractors. The two outputs support different purposes: a controlled coordination snapshot and a worksheet that teams can continue updating.
The Lookahead workspace and its outputs are available with SEQNCS PRO; the FREE viewer and DCMA tools remain separate.
- A3 landscape PDF for meetings or site boards.
- Editable Excel Lookahead Workbook.
- PDF/Excel branding choices available to PRO users.
