Assemble Systems, a Gold level member of Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN), announced a model-based scheduling integration with Oracle’s Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management scheduling software. Oracle’s Primavera P6 is the de facto standard and a leader in planning and scheduling for the Commercial Building and the Engineering, Procurement and Construction industry. Oracle customers will be able to enhance the value of their Primavera P6 implementation and improve their construction projects by leveraging Building Information Model (BIM) data through this integration.
Assemble’s integration with Primavera P6 enables construction managers to combine the baseline schedule and the BIM data to communicate construction sequencing to owners and other partners. Market research indicates that 4D schedule simulation is helpful with its ability to marry highly detailed scheduling to design and construction models. However, it is often viewed as too complex and difficult to share across project teams, due to the constantly changing nature of the models, activities, and other schedule data used. The new integration will allow users to easily create simulations, cost-loaded schedules, micro-schedules, and manage constant project changes.
