Software for Viewing Linear Projects created with a Linear Planning Software

Designed to replace the flow of communicating project information as PDF, this XER & XML file reader offers dynamic way to view project plans by providing project stakeholders with detailed insights of all project activities even if they don’t have an Oracle^® Primavera P6 license.

With ScheduleReader^TMa user can quickly access to details from many aspects of the project including WBS (Work Breakdown Structure), Activities, Resource assignments, Roles, OBS (Organizational Breakdown Structure) and more.

As new feature implemented in version 7.0, ScheduleReader^TM fully supports viewing of construction linear projects created in a Primavera^® P6^® environment through a new Linear Scheduling View.

Support for Viewing Linear Project Schedules

Get a complete overview of linear construction projects created with the linear scheduling or linear planning method in a Primavera^® P6^® linear software environment.

View XER & XML Files Made With Linear Scheduling Software

The time-location chart is a special view commonly found in construction schedules in Civil Engineering and Power Engineering & Construction, specifically in linear projects scheduled and managed with the Oracle^® Primavera P6 or other linear planning or line of balance linear software in areas such as:

Traffic engineering
Highway engineering
Railway systems engineering
Tunnel Engineering
Power line construction

Due to their complexity and magnitude, these linear construction and linear infrastructure projects are commonly managed by the Primavera linear software or other linear scheduling software solution.

Linear Scheduling Method

A graphical scheduling method focusing on continuous resource utilization in repetitive activities. Commonly referred to as line of balance (LOB) method, repetitive scheduling method, location based scheduling, time space scheduling method, horizontal and vertical logic scheduling.

LSM is used mainly in the construction industry to schedule resources in repetitive activities commonly found in highway, pipeline, high-rise building and rail construction projects, also called repetitive or linear projects.

Time–distance Diagrams / Time-location Charts

The time-distance chart, or otherwise known as time distance diagram, time chainage, distance time graph or construction time chart etc.., is a graphical representation of a time schedule for all types of longitudinal, linear projects.

Activities in time–distance diagrams are displayed both along a time and distance axis according to their relative position and as geometrical shapes showing the occupation of the work site over time such that conflicting access can be detected visually.

Why Consider ScheduleReader as Your Software for Viewing XER Project Plans Created with a Linear Scheduling Software?

Saves Time

Eliminate the need to create multiple PDF copies in your linear software for each project stakeholder. Communicating information through XER files while teams use ScheduleReader saves schedulers time.

Fast Access to Data with Time Location Charts

Project schedulers, planners, contractors, sub-contractors, and all construction workers can quickly view linear schedule data from the construction schedule files without connecting to a databases of a linear software.

Interactive Overview of Project Data

Users can create personalized views with custom filters, groups, layouts and more, compare Baselines, create reports and enjoy the dynamic view through Gantt Charts, bars and other diagrams.

Efficient Project Communication

With the Progress Update Feature, users can propose and receive activity updates from the field, keeping the linear schedule or construction schedule up to date, upon which, Schedulers can accept/reject which changes are applied in the linear software.

Available in 2 Versions

ScheduleReader^TM PRO is a more advanced version of the Standard edition, with added features for Graphical Reports generation and Linear Scheduling View to support stakeholders needs in viewing linear planned project data without owning expensive linear software.

ROI Guaranted

As the perfect construction planning and scheduling companion tool it will modernize workflow and lower costs, by eliminating the need to invest in linear software or increase your number of P6^® licenses for staff that needs a view only access.

Beyond Linear Scheduling

Modernize your linear construction planning and linear planning along side your project communication. Explore all of ScheduleReader^TM features:

Supported Views

In ScheduleReader^TM, project participants such as managers, schedulers, team members, contractors and other stakeholders can have complete visibility on P6 linear schedules and project progress by using the native views for:
