What Outbuild does

Outbuild puts the CPM schedule and the field’s short-interval plan in the same system. Superintendents can break master activities into lookahead tasks, trades can make weekly commitments, and progress from the lookahead can update the schedule without maintaining a second spreadsheet.

The published Core plan starts at $999 per month billed annually and includes unlimited users and projects, onboarding, support, integrations, and iPad access. Portfolio dashboards and deeper risk analysis sit in the quote-priced Pro tier.

Pricing visibilityPublic pricing

Core includes unlimited users and projects; price scales with annual construction volume. Pro portfolio features use custom pricing. A free trial is available.

Before the demo

What stands out, and what to pin down

What stands out on paper

  • One change can flow between the field plan and master schedule
  • Unlimited users and projects in the published Core plan
  • Construction-specific onboarding and live support are included

Questions for the vendor

  • Phone support is not yet the same as the full iPad experience; the vendor says a mobile version is coming
  • Pro portfolio analytics require custom pricing
  • Buyers migrating contractual P6 schedules should test calendars, constraints, and round-trip fidelity

Integrations

Named connections

An integration name alone does not tell you which records move, in which direction, or how often. Ask to see the exact workflow you need using representative data.

Support

Help documented by the vendor

Dedicated onboarding teamLive chat and email supportPersonalized trainingHow-to videos and guides

Availability and response commitments can vary by plan, region, and contract. Put required onboarding, training, support hours, and escalation times in the proposal.
