Evidence-Backed
Every finding is supported by activity-level schedule evidence.
Pathizer vs. Manual XER Review
Same discipline. Engine speed. Evidence attached.
If your team already compares XER files by hand, you know the method works — and what it costs in specialist hours every data date. Pathizer runs the same read deterministically, on every update, with the evidence trail built in.
Run it against a review your team already finished — and compare the reads.
Task By Task
The update review, side by side.
Review Task
By Hand
With Pathizer
Review Task
Compare two XER updates
By Hand
Export both files, diff activities in spreadsheets, and reconcile added, deleted, and modified rows by hand.
With Pathizer
The engine compares every update pair automatically — activities, relationships, durations, and constraints.
Review Task
Trace float erosion to paths
By Hand
Chase total float activity by activity and rebuild the float paths that matter from memory and filters.
With Pathizer
Float movement is mapped to phase and float paths on every update, with erosion flagged before it hits zero.
Review Task
Identify what drove the movement
By Hand
Correlate logic edits, duration changes, and progress by inspection — and hope nothing was missed.
With Pathizer
Driver attribution ranks the activities and logic edits that carried the movement, each with a confidence level.
Review Task
Separate progress from revisions
By Hand
Manually distinguish what the work did from what the scheduler changed — the hardest call in any review.
With Pathizer
Half-Step Analysis makes the split explicit: progress-related impacts versus schedule revisions, update by update.
Review Task
Assemble evidence for review
By Hand
Screenshot, annotate, and file the backup by hand so conclusions can be defended later.
With Pathizer
Every finding is source-linked to its XER rows automatically — the evidence ledger builds itself as you review.
Review Task
Write the executive narrative
By Hand
Draft the update story from scratch for the owner meeting, every single cycle.
With Pathizer
An evidence-backed narrative drafts itself from the schedule record; your team edits and owns the language.
Review Task
Repeat next data date
By Hand
Start over. Quality depends on who does the review and how much time they have that week.
With Pathizer
The same deterministic methodology runs on every update, every project — inspectable and consistent.
Manual review typically costs hours of senior scheduler time per update pair, and the depth varies with the week. The engine runs the full read on every update — your team spends its time on judgment, not reconciliation.
What Stays Yours
Pathizer replaces the grind, not the judgment.
Your P6 workflow — Pathizer reads the XER exports you already produce
Your professional judgment — findings support review, they don't replace it
Your evidence standard — every number traces to source rows you can verify
