Microsoft Project programmes
with clear dependencies
Practical, readable schedules for teams that work in Microsoft Project, built on real logic and kept up to date.
Why this matters
Many contractors, fit-out teams and specialist subcontractors run their programmes in Microsoft Project. The tool is fine; the problem is usually missing logic, manual dates and no progress tracking.
RAYYAF builds or repairs MS Project schedules so that dependencies drive the dates and progress can be measured.
Deliverables, defined
Baseline programme
Task hierarchy, dependencies, lags, calendars and constraints used with care, with a saved baseline.
Progress tracking
Percent complete, actual dates and baseline-versus-current comparison each reporting period.
Look-ahead and short-term plans
Extracts for site teams and subcontractor coordination.
Programme reports
Simple Gantt, milestone and variance reports for management.
P6 cross-check or conversion
Where a client needs Primavera P6, we check the conversion and flag anything that changes meaning.
Schedule repair
Fixing manual dates, missing links and unrealistic constraints in an inherited file.
From first call to delivery
Review inputs. Contract dates, scope and the current file.
Build or repair logic. Dependencies replace typed-in dates.
Baseline. Save the baseline once the programme is agreed.
Track progress. Update actuals and compare to baseline each period.
Report. Variance and look-ahead outputs for your team.
- Scope, milestones and contract dates
- Existing MPP file, if any
- Working calendars
- Progress data for each update
Critical Path Method with dependency-driven dates; constraints and manual scheduling are limited and documented. Baselines are saved and never overwritten.

Common questions
Can you convert between MS Project and P6?
We can support a conversion and check what changed. Some features do not map exactly between the two tools, so we list differences.
Do you only build new schedules?
No. Repairing and updating an existing schedule is common work.
Is MS Project enough for a large project?
For many programmes, yes. For large or contractual-claim projects, Primavera P6 is often preferred. We advise on the right tool for your contract.
