Construction scheduling software FAQs
Clear answers about Planera, CPM scheduling software, P6 alternatives, AI scheduling, and connected field planning.
What is Planera?
Planera is modern, AI-native CPM construction scheduling software built for general contractors and the teams that plan and deliver complex construction projects. Planera combines CPM scheduling, field planning, schedule intelligence, quality checks, dashboards, and AI in one connected platform.
Is Planera an alternative to Primavera P6?
Yes. Planera is a P6 alternative that combines rigorous CPM scheduling with a visual, collaborative interface built for construction teams. Schedulers, project managers, superintendents, trade partners, and executives can work from the same plan instead of relying on separate spreadsheets, whiteboards, and side documents.
How is Planera different from P6 and Oracle Primavera Cloud?
Planera differentiates itself from P6 and Oracle Primavera Cloud by keeping CPM scheduling, field planning, quality checks, dashboards, and AI in one connected platform, instead of a set of separate tools stacked around the schedule. Planera is designed to handle complex construction schedules without making the software complicated for the wider project team.
Is Planera CPM scheduling software?
Yes. Planera is CPM scheduling software that supports predecessor and successor relationships, multiple calendars, constraints, lag and lead, float calculations, and critical-path analysis. Teams get the CPM rigor required for complex projects in a visual, intuitive platform.
Does Planera's AI change the construction schedule automatically?
No. Manny does not override the scheduler's judgment or change the construction schedule on its own. Manny surfaces analysis and potential options from the schedule's CPM logic so the scheduler can evaluate them and remain in control of every decision.
