Primavera P6 is one of the most widely adopted construction planning softwares, providing a central source-of-truth for project schedules - covering baselines, current plans, and actuals.

Sensat supports the visualisation of Primavera P6 files, providing access to schedules in an easy-to-understand visual format to streamline issue identification & resolution.

Key Features

  • Democratise access to schedules in an easy-to-use, accessible format.

  • Streamline issue identification & resolution

  • Interactive Gantt visualisation

  • 4D Modelling: Carry out digital rehearsals and project walk-throughs

How it works

1. Import your construction schedule

To get started, upload your Primavera P6 XER file to Sensat.

Your schedule file will then be uploaded and processed by Sensat.

2. View your schedule Gantt chart

Your schedule file will appear in the Layer manager along with your other project files.

To view the schedule press the Schedule button on in the top-right - note this button only appears once a valid XER file has been uploaded and processed.

The schedule Gantt chart will appear in a panel at the top of the screen.

3. Link your schedule to your BIM

Once you have uploaded your BIM models for each part of the sequence, simply "link" them to the relevant activities and dates in your schedule.

Once linked the models will take on the Start and End dates of the schedule item and only appear on the map when the correct time period is selected on the timeline.

4. 4D visualisation - walk through your sequence using smart jump

Once the Gantt chart and BIM models have been linked you can easily click through your timeline. The models will automatically appear on the map on the date specified by the Activity they are linked to.

The timeline highlights when changes are occurring on site, allowing users to quickly zoom in on the schedule and the 3D map to inspect the site for any potential issues and risks. Once identified, our commenting feature is the perfect tool for teams to flag and discuss resolutions.
