Summary

Asta Powerproject is construction planning software for projects from small extensions to megaprojects. Teams can create Gantt chart schedules using task pools and code libraries, link tasks for critical-path analysis, and assign calendars, resources, and costs. Scenario planning supports comparisons between construction methods or ways to accelerate delivery. The software models budgeted, planned, and actual costs over time and helps plan people, plant, and materials. Risk analysis assesses potential delays and cost overruns, while Schedule Quality Check can use custom parameters or preconfigured DCMA and CIOB metrics. It works with Microsoft Project and Oracle Primavera files and integrates with Bidcon estimating applications, ERP systems, and BIM tools. The standard desktop client runs only on Microsoft Windows; the hosted SaaS version is accessible on Windows and macOS computers with internet access, but lacks macros and the Developers' Toolkit. A free Project Viewer can view, navigate, and print plans from Asta Powerproject, Microsoft Project, or Oracle Primavera. A single-user subscription costs 695.00 GBP per year, excludes VAT, and is for one user on a single Windows PC.
