Part 2 · DCMA Deep Dive
A field guide to frequent DCMA PAM 200.1 failures: what the finding means, how to confirm it, and the fastest credible fix in P6 or MS Project.
The Schedule Risk Index (SRI) is a deterministic 0–100 pre-simulation risk signal built from network structure and CPM diagnostics—not a probabilistic finish date.
Reliable P6 → API analysis starts with a clean XER export, encoding awareness, and task-type classification so LOE and summaries do not pollute network metrics.
AACE RP 29R-03 defines forensic schedule analysis methods for delay attribution. Learn when to use Windows vs. Contemporaneous vs. Collapsed As-Built—and how APIs keep results legally citable.
A schedule health score is a weighted composite of network quality signals—not a prediction of finish date. Here’s how to read score, grade, breakdown, and top signals.
