Project Milestones, Progress & Cost Forecasting
See progress and forecast overruns before they become crises.
This is where trust breaks down
Co-owners invest large sums into a project they can't physically see, dependent on verbal updates. There's no way to know if it's on schedule, which phase it's in, or whether spending is heading for an overrun.
Vendors paid upfront have little incentive to finish on time — and by the time an overrun is noticed, the group can only make urgent, unplanned calls for more funds, which breaks trust.
- ×No structured view of phase, schedule, or progress
- ×Cost overruns discovered too late to correct
- ×Contractors paid without verified, approved work
- ×No record of how progress was reported over time
How CoBuild Manager fixes it
CoBuild Manager gives you milestone timelines (Gantt, stacked, and list views), Earned Value Management (EAC) for early overrun warnings, and Work Packages with a 3-step payment gate so contractors are paid only for verified, approved work.
Everything this pillar includes
Milestones & Forecasting is delivered through a set of integrated features, not bolted-together tools.
Gantt View
All construction phases on a Gantt timeline with dates, progress bars, dependencies, assignees, and overdue flags.
Stacked View
Milestones stacked by phase for a quick visual summary of overall progress.
Milestone Financial Reports
Actual expenditure by phase, compared against the budget allocated to each milestone.
Budget & Cost Forecast (EAC)
Earned Value Management projects a final cost from current spending efficiency, warning early of overruns.
Vendor Work Packages
Each vendor's contract structured with scope, billing method, value, payment terms, and retention.
Work Package Milestones
Deliverable milestones with weights and amounts, enforcing the complete → approve → release gate.
Work Package Progress Logs
History of progress updates — who reported what, when — an auditable record of contractor reporting.
Direct benefits
How milestones & forecasting moves the numbers that matter.
Contractors paid only for verified work
The complete → approve → release gate keeps vendors moving and never pays for unfinished work.
Overruns flagged weeks early
EAC forecasting shows cost overruns while there's still time to act.
Overdue phases surfaced
Overdue milestones are flagged automatically, so nothing slips silently.
The impact
Co-owners always know the phase, the schedule, and the cost. Contractors are paid only for verified work, and overruns are visible weeks before they become crises.
