The model
See the building the way the schedule sees it.
Upload the building model and Novus matches each activity to the floors and elements it builds. Slide to any date and the building shows what’s done, under way, planned — and what’s running over.
Plan AI can draft the whole schedule from the model, one activity per section and trade.

Downstream
See exactly what a delay pushes.
Link the work the way it’s built. When something runs over, Novus shows which activities it would move and whether it reaches the finish — and nothing moves until someone decides.
2 activities are waiting on work that has overrun.
Never applied automaticallyNothing moves on its own — accept each one from the task’s Attributes, or allow the two to overlap.

Trades, suppliers, inspections
Everyone on the job, connected to their part.
Trades see their own work and what it hands to. Suppliers and inspectors join as External Collaborators on the one task they touch — never the whole project.

Routing
Changes go to the right people.
A slip reported from the field goes to the admin who runs that trade, with what it would move. One decision, on the record — not a reply-all.
For Review
Steel delivery slipped 4 days — mill backlog
From Northwind Steel · Structure
If accepted: Level 1 slab and 3 later tasks move 4 days. The finish holds — 6 days of slack.
Routed to Leo, who runs Structure — not to everyone on the project.
