A Message From Our Founder
“I’ve watched projects collapse not from bad consultants or materials, but from inaccurate scheduling. That’s what this company is built to fix.” When I started working in construction scheduling over 16 years ago, I quickly noticed a pattern. The projects that ran smoothly weren’t necessarily the ones with the best contractors or the biggest budgets. They were the ones with a clear, logic driven, professionally managed CPM schedule. The projects that derailed, the ones with missed milestones, contractor disputes and owner penalties almost always had scheduling as the weak link.
I spent years working inside construction firms, watching project managers build schedules in a matter of hours, treating them as a compliance box to check rather than a strategic tool. Those schedules couldn't withstand scrutiny. They couldn't answer the question: "If this activity slips, what else moves?" And when delays hit as they always do, those projects had no defensible documentation to stand on. I founded CPM Scheduling because I believed the U.S. construction market needed access to dedicated, specialist level scheduling services. Our team is built from people who genuinely love this discipline. We are not a general project management firm that also does scheduling. Every person on our team has direct construction experience before specializing. Our certifications are current. Our processes are designed around defensibility and clarity. That's the CPM Scheduling promise. And it starts the moment you reach out.
