In this episode we dive into Progress Reports The Challenge You know the moment. That message lands. Your project manager needs a status update on the project and they need it right now. Not in two weeks when it's supposed to happen. Right now. You have an 11,000 activity schedule. A critical path that keeps shifting. A structural steel delay throwing everything off. And zero minutes to spare. Usually this means three hours buried in P6. Copying data to Excel. Building out reports. Attaching baselines, unattaching baselines, running analysis. All just to deliver a simple email. On this episode of Beyond Deadlines, I sat down with Greg Lawton, CEO of Nodes and Links, to test whether a purpose built AI tool could draft that same status email in 60 seconds. Not a general chatbot. A multi agent AI system designed from the ground up to answer scheduling's hardest questions. What we found changed my perspective on what's possible.
