It checked the engineering schedule and showed that if they prioritized and completed a different package of deliverables, we could open a new work front, re-deploy the tradespeople, and limit “idle time” to one week. And that juggling deliverables packages would only cost engineering 1.5 days.

Then it showed how procurement could increase the pending order size from a different, more distant material supplier, pay for expedited shipping, and have materials just 10 days behind schedule. And to cap it off, it pulled together all associated costs and gave me a report across all departments! I was so happy I ran another scenario, because after all, I was just playing “what if” with the Wrench SmartProject AI Advisor for Contracts!
