Application

  • (Breaking change in Release 26.3) Estimate dashboard deprecation – The Estimate dashboard will be deprecated in Release 26.3. The Estimate Portfolio dashboard that was published in Release 25.9 replaces the Estimate dashboard.

  • Change dashboard – The Change dashboard represents the life cycle of Issues, PCOs, CCOs, and VCOs, and allows you to track status, value and budget changes for your entire portfolio. This new dashboard was available to preview in Release 25.11 and is officially available in this release. ClosedRead more

  • Project Controls dashboard – Updates have been made to the Project Controls dashboard that includes a new two-level hierarchy, a Cost Item Detail view, Health Check page enhancements, and a new Revenue Recognition view. ClosedRead more

    The new two-level Organization | Project hierarchy has been added as an alternative to the existing six-level OBS hierarchy. You can now choose between the detailed OBS tree that is for organizations that structure their OBS with multiple sub-organization levels, and a flatter two-level hierarchy that groups projects directly under the root organization.

    This provides a simpler and more intuitive selection experience for customers who do not rely on deep sub-organizational structures, while preserving the full hierarchy option for those who do.

    A new Cost Item Detail view has been added to the Change Details page. This view allows you see all change orders from the Change Register tab mapped to each cost item, presenting original budget values alongside aggregated positive and negative cost movements to provide a clear view of overall cost impact at the cost-item level.

    A primary use case for the view is a scenario that involves non-associated budget movements, where negative cost movements represent contingency drawdown, positive movements reflect reallocation, and the resulting net position indicates the remaining contingency. To help project managers and cost controllers assess contingency sufficiency when pending changes are included.

    The following are enhancements that have been made to the Health Check page.

    • Flat CBS Hierarchy is now available on the Health Check page. This new view allows users to analyze selected health metrics at the Cost Item level while maintaining CBS position and accurate sort order. The existing Compact view, designed for quickly reviewing summary statistics across projects, is still available and can be set using the Flat vs Compact toggle.

    • A new Health Check metric has been added under the Data Integrity category. The Overclaimed Quantity metric identifies cost items, where the Claimed Quantity to Date (responsive to the selected date range) exceeds the Forecast Take-Off Quantity. While the Percent Complete > 100% metric already existed, it did not consistently surface all overclaimed items due to percent complete being capped at 100% in many projects. This new metric ensures complete visibility into overclaim scenarios.

    • Ability to focus on Terminal Cost Items only. A new Terminal Cost Item filter is now available that allows you restrict analysis to terminal cost items for more targeted review. Any drill-through actions initiated from this filtered view carry the filter context through to the respective drill-through pages.

    The Revenue Recognition view has been added to the Revenue | Portfolio page. This new view introduces the ability to select a financial snapshot period, together with a corresponding date slicer, to drive period-based or to-date cost-to-cost percent complete calculations. Earned revenue is calculated using forecast data by applying the cost-to-cost percent complete against the current total contract value (that is, Total Price or Current Price).

    This enhancement improves visibility into revenue recognition trends, supports alignment with financial reporting periods, and provides more accurate and auditable insights into project performance.

  • Estimate Portfolio dashboard – Enhancements have been made to the Benchmarking | 3 tab in this dashboard. ClosedRead more

    • Variance visibility across unit rate types: Variance is now calculated and shows for all five Unit-Rate categories at the cost item level. Background color formatting highlights low, medium, and high variance bands to improve visual recognition of outliers instantly.

    • Dynamic variance threshold control: You can modify the low, medium, and high variance triggers in the dashboard. Threshold updates immediately influence conditional formatting, allowing sensitivity to be aligned to project context.

    • Interactive Job & Cost Item benchmarking: Selecting a cost item populates the Estimated + As-Built rate matrix for all benchmarking jobs in the view. When you hover over any As-Built Unit-Rate value, it reveals a comparative tool tip showing how that value sits relative to benchmark averages. This allows for a quick high-level assessment of performance without navigating outside of the page.

    • Scatter-plot benchmark interaction: After selecting a job and viewing the CBS breakdown, you can hover up and down across unit-rate values to trigger a scatter-plot tool tip that shows where each item sits against peer job benchmarks. If a deeper review is needed, you can then highlight a cost item to populate the comparison matrix. This allows both a rapid scan and detailed focus on the same screen.

    • New As-Built metric slicer: A dedicated slicer has been added to filter benchmarking results by a specific unit-rate type. This allows you to narrow your analysis to Unit Cost, Unit MHrs, Qty/MHr, or others without the visual noise, which is ideal for targeted review of performance outliers.
