01 — The pipeline

One pipeline, from inbox to invoice

Your inbox captures the workflow. Command builds the claim. The claim becomes the invoice. Costs update to the project automatically.

01

Capture the ask

Aegis Action reads the email you have open, summarises what it’s asking, and files it against the right job — owner, due date and the email trail attached. A morning digest surfaces the five that matter.

Control the job

Aegis Command turns the project you already have — P6, MS Project, Excel — into live earned value, critical path, risk in dollars and a forecast. Aegis Assessment says what the numbers mean.

Aegis Command · The second opinion

The site says the job is on track. The schedule says 18 days late.

Every job in Aegis carries two statuses: the one your team reports, and the one the earned value and float can actually support. When they disagree, Command says so — before issues arise.

01

Reported vs assessed, on every project.
Site submissions sit beside the assessment — the gap is flagged the moment it appears.

02

Aegis Assessment puts it in writing.
An independent read of the job that opens every status report — built only from figures in your data.

03

No number is typed in. CPI, SPI, float and forecast come from the schedule and the costs — the same import you already run.

AEGIS ASSESSMENT · AUGUST
Reported vs actual Weekly status reports On track; Aegis earned-value analysis assesses Monitor. SPI 0.81, CPI 0.98 — the schedule slip has not been reflected in upward reporting.
Schedule Electrical & mechanical rough-in are 18 days behind baseline on the critical path. Partitions close-up (largest work package) cannot start until rough-in recovers. Practical Completion forecast 17 Nov 2026 vs contract 30 Oct (P80 1 Dec).
Issues & blockers Main switchboard procurement at near-zero float with unmitigated supplier-delay risk (R-03). Variation VO-03 has work under way without approval — $46k unrecoverable if rejected.
Outcome & intervention If switchboard lead time extends ~4 weeks, energisation becomes critical and PC moves ~3 weeks right. Approve rough-in recovery plan (D-03); assign owner + mitigation to R-03; get VO-03 approved in writing.

02 — Invoicing

Claims in. Invoices out. Books that reconcile.

Month end stops being a spreadsheet ritual when the claims live where the project does.

a

Subcontractor claims land in a register, not an inbox. Approve one and it posts straight into the project’s actuals.

b

Customer invoices live against the job — due date, amount, balance and status in one register, per project and across the book.

c

Chasing is a screen, not a spreadsheet. Every overdue invoice, its history and the next follow-up in one place, with reminders and escalations you control.

d

Ledger Link keeps Xero in step. Approved bills push across; invoices and payments come back and reconcile. CSV export if you are not running Xero or other finance software.

05 — Questions

Questions we get asked

What is project controls software?

Project controls is the discipline of measuring what a project is actually doing against what it was supposed to do — cost, schedule, risk and forecast — and reporting it in time to act. Aegis is the software that runs it: your schedules and costs go into Aegis Command, which continuously recalculates earned value, critical path and risk exposure, and produces a client-ready monthly report. It’s a subscription tool you run yourself, not a consultancy — you get the function of a project-controls team without the headcount.

How is Aegis different from Procore, Microsoft Project or Monday.com?

Those tools hold the data. Aegis interprets it. Microsoft Project and P6 build a schedule; Procore runs site delivery; Monday and ClickUp track tasks. None of them tell you that reported status and assessed status disagree, or that a project reporting “on track” has quietly burned its float.

Aegis reads what those tools already produce and turns it into controls output: CPI and SPI, estimate at completion, critical path and float, P50/P80 completion forecasting, risk exposure in dollars, and a written assessment of where the numbers contradict the narrative.

Do we have to replace the tools we already use?

No. Aegis sits over the top of them. It imports Primavera P6 schedules (.xer), Microsoft Project schedules (saved as XML), Excel workbooks and CSV — so your existing schedule becomes live earned value, critical path and forecast without being rebuilt in another tool. Your team keeps working where they work today.

How does invoicing and Xero work?

Subcontractor claims land in a register against the job, not in an inbox — approve one and it posts straight into the project’s actuals. Customer invoices live against the job too, with due date, amount, balance and status in one register. Ledger Link keeps Xero in step: approved bills push across, and invoices and payments come back and reconcile. If you don’t run Xero, you can export to CSV instead.

Who is Aegis for?

Builders, contractors, engineering firms and owner’s representatives running projects from about $1M to $30M — the band where an 18-day slip hiding behind an on-track report costs real money, but a full-time project-controls engineer ($120k–$160k plus on-costs) can’t be justified. If your monthly status pack is assembled by hand from spreadsheets the night before it’s due to your client, you’re the customer.

What is the Aegis Assessment, and can I trust it?

It’s the independent assessment of project health that opens every monthly report. It is written by AI from the computed figures — earned value, float, risk exposure, contingency drawdown — and it is instructed never to cite a number that isn’t in the underlying data. Its most important job is naming the gap between reported status and assessed status when the two disagree.

Treat it as an analyst’s read, not a professional sign-off. The maths behind it is auditable — every figure traces back to the source line in your schedule or cost data.

Can I invite my client and subcontractors?

Yes, at no extra cost. Every plan includes unlimited users, because Aegis is priced on the contract value under control, not per seat. Invite your delivery team, your client and your subcontractors — each gets access scoped to their role, and status submissions from the field recompute the portfolio figures automatically.

What does Aegis cost, and is it really free to start?

You can start free with no card: tenders are always free, and you can run one active project — any size — free for as long as you like. When you need to run more than one live job at the same time, paid plans start at A$295/month including GST, with unlimited projects and unlimited users on every plan, banded on combined contract value. No lock-in: plans are monthly in advance, and you can cancel when a project finishes. Full detail is on the pricing page.

Where is our data stored, and who can see it?

Your data sits in a dedicated database on managed cloud infrastructure, encrypted in transit and at rest, with each organisation’s projects isolated from every other tenant. Access inside your organisation is controlled by role.

We don’t sell your data or share it with other customers. The AI features run on Anthropic’s commercial API, which does not use your data to train models.

Run the job. Bill the job. Get paid on time.

Start free, no card — run one active project free for as long as you like, and upgrade only when you take on more at once. Your data is scrubbed if you choose not to continue.
