ICS Modeling
integrated cost & schedule models

Projects today operate in an environment that is constantly changing, making the challenge of keeping a project sold, on budget, and on schedule a difficult task. TTJ&B's Integrated Cost & Schedule (ICS) Models make it possible to quickly and intelligently modify your project baseline to achieve compliance with any number of fiscal and schedule constraints. 

Simply put, an ICS Model integrates a project's cost and schedule data into a single analytical model whereby planning baselines can be dynamically manipulated and impacts across the cost and schedule spectrum are identified in real-time.




REAL-TIME REPLANNING
turning your project on a dime

By modeling a project's cost and schedule baseline in the dynamic platform of an ICS Model new, detailed cost and schedule baselines can automatically be re-generated.  What can take dozens of people weeks to generate can now be generated dozens of times by a single person in minutes.  When a prime contractor or government agency can fully explore their cost, schedule and risk baselines in real time and identify optimized alternatives in light of a given set of challenges, it changes the way things things get done. It saves time. It saves money. it reduces costly mistakes. It makes you agile.

anatomy of an ICS model



A relational database houses project cost and schedule data, facilitates their integration, and regenerates cost and schedule baselines as project variables are altered

Project schedules are manipulated to characterize potential changes to the schedule baseline - and programmatic impacts are observed in real-time

ICS models interface with Oracle's Decision Optimizer application allowing for automated risk and optimization analyses - allowing users to literally "solve" their project baseline for any set of programmatic constraints
