Modern CPM scheduling without the complexity
Outbuild is purpose-built for construction projects, and makes critical path scheduling simple and efficient. Unlike complex legacy CPM software, Outbuild connects field teams and project managers with real-time schedule updates, integrated Lookahead planning, real-time roadblock tracking, and robust schedule analytics—keeping your projects on track and preventing costly delays.
Real-Time Critical Path Tracking
Traditional CPM schedules are static, but projects aren’t. Outbuild keeps schedule updates dynamic, instantly alerting you to potential delays and updating task progress from the field—making it easy to protect the critical path.
Integrated Lookahead Planning
CPM schedules often live in a silo, disconnected from day-to-day operations. Outbuild integrates Lookahead planning, giving superintendents and field teams the short-term visibility they need—while keeping everything tied to the master schedule.
Faster Decision-Making & Fewer Delays
Eliminate surprises and prevent delays. Outbuild identifies critical path risks in real time and helps keep stakeholders accountable, so teams can act fast before small issues turn into costly overruns.
Built for Simplicity & Collaboration
Unlike complex CPM tools that require specialized training, Outbuild makes critical path scheduling easy. Everyone—from PMs to trade partners—can stay aligned without a dedicated scheduling expert.
Outbuild helps superintendents and project managers plan and schedule construction projects efficiently and effectively. Outbuild has a CPM contract schedule and a "last planner" style look ahead schedule that communicate seamlessly.
Multiple construction schedules in one project
The Stages feature allows you to create multiple schedules under one project.
If your project will go through some challenges, you can run a few what-if scenarios to identify potential improvements and mapping out what the end date would be without affecting your current live schedule.
Stages can also be used to create a high-level construction schedule specifically for owners or other stakeholders, all within the same project.
Procore Integration
With Outbuild, you have the capability to integrate your Master Schedule with Procore by sending the latest version of your construction schedule from Outbuild to Procore with a click of a button.
Your subcontractors and your trade partners can view the latest version of your construction project schedule as quickly and frequently as you want to publish it.
"Why should a scheduling tool be easy? I want everybody from a field engineer to the project manager to be able to use the same tool."

Construction scheduling tool you can customize
You will be able to customize your Schedule view in the columns with companies, tags, responsible, costs and more.
You can color-code them yourself by company or by WBS to have a much more visual understanding.
Within our software for construction scheduling, you can also organize, sort and filter data in order to deliver the activities that you want to those that need to see them the most.
Control unexpected scheduling changes
Our Modification Request feature helps Schedule Administrators track and make live decisions about unexpected changes during planning sessions. It allows the field crew at the lookahead level to communicate directly with those managing the master schedule.
Information on who sent the request, their timing needs, and scheduling impact are included in a log where administrators can easily approve or deny requests without emails, calls, or jobsite visits.
Smart Submittal Software, Built for Contractors
Stop chasing submittals across emails and spreadsheets—get instant visibility into how submittals impact the schedule. Outbuild connects submittals to your schedule, shows submittal status in real-time, and keeps your procurement log organized—so submittals won’t slow you down.
Linking Submittals to Outbuild’s Gantt
Outbuild's Procore integration allows teams to connect submittals to schedule activities, ensuring submissions and approvals happen on time and preventing delays from missing documentation.
Track Submittals on the Activity Card
Easily monitor submittal status within each schedule task. Pending, approved, or overdue—stay informed in real-time and keep your schedule on track.
Automatic Procurement Log
Outbuild automatically calculates required on-site dates based on the current schedule, so you can view a detailed Procurement Log in Procore. No manual entry—just real-time updates and clear accountability.
Outbuild has truly streamlined our business operations by integrating submittals seamlessly with our project timelines. For us in the construction industry, this means more time and cost savings, and less hassle. As a Project Coordinator, I find Outbuild's user-friendly nature and robust scheduling capabilities ideal.
It allows us to create look-ahead schedules directly from the master plan and provides real-time updates, making field coordination a breeze.
Import from MS Project or Primavera 6
No need to start from scratch if you don't want to. In less than a minute, bring your existing schedule from MS Project or Primavera 6 into Outbuild.
All your logic, all of your columns and information will remain, allowing you to start working in our construction scheduling tool, which is a much easier platform to use than your original legacy programs.
Centralized view of all activity details
Outbuild's Activity Card feature provides a centralized hub for managing all essential details of each activity within your master schedule.
By selecting an activity, you can access and edit critical information, including dates, dependencies, submittals, costs, labor hours, and tasks created in the Lookahead by your Superintendent.
This comprehensive view ensures that all relevant data is easily accessible, facilitating efficient project management and decision-making
Managing construction schedules has never been this easy
Bulk Edits
Save time while working on your schedule. You are able to bulk assign progress, duration, responsible company, tag, delete activities or link them. You can also replicate selected activities directly in your Lookahead.
Float
Enables a simple way to see the buffer between two activities in your master schedule. You can use it as a control tool, (maybe you missed a predecessor or successor connection) or use it as an opportunity to take action over that activity gap.
Baselines
This is a live visual control feature that allows you to compare your current schedule progress with your contract baseline. Turning your baseline on will enable you to see directly from your schedule how many days you are ahead or delayed. You can save as many baselines as you want and always go back in time and compare with your current schedule.
Activity Card
For each activity of your master schedule you can directly display the activity card where you can get all related information about the selected activity. You can check and edit dates, dependencies, submittals, cost & labor hours and review the tasks created in the Lookahead by your Superintendent.
Critical Path
Turn on and off your Critical Path to highlight in red and visualize the critical activities in your contract schedule.
