Under the five views

The governance engine, in detail

Tree, Gantt, Board, Report, and People are the surface. Underneath sits one governance engine. Here is how each part of it actually works, and why it holds the line when a project starts to slip.

CRITICAL-PATH ENGINE

Critical-Path Engine

Critical path software that runs a real CPM pass over your task network, not a coloured bar chart. You get each task's float, the chain of zero-float tasks that sets the deadline, and the projected finish date for the whole project.

BASELINE AND SLIP

Baseline and Slip Tracking

Project baseline tracking captures every task date the moment you go live, then measures slip against that fixed snapshot. The baseline does not move on its own, so the slip number stays honest and you can always defend the original commitment.

GOVERNANCE ON THE RECORD

Audit Trail

Project audit trail software in Phaselo writes an immutable event for every meaningful change to a project: status, dates, cost, assignment, and re-baseline. Nobody edits the record after the fact, so when a number or a date moves the reason is already there.

SLIP AND OVERDUE ALERTS

Slip and Overdue Alerts

Project risk alerts run a daily check across every live project and tell you the moment a task goes overdue or a project is projected to finish past its baseline. You find out from the system while you can still act, not from a trade standing on site asking why nobody warned them.

CAPEX AND COST TRACKING

Capex and Cost Tracking

Capex tracking software that keeps the money in one place: tag costs to cost centres on each item and watch them roll up the work breakdown. Budget, committed, exposure, and headroom, per project and across the portfolio, with a capex request you can freeze for sign-off.
