Elecosoft launches Asta Vision Plus to reduce project risk and prepare customers for predictive, AI‑driven planning

Asta Vision Plus is an additional module for Asta Vision users, designed to help construction and infrastructure delivery teams reduce project risk with secure, API access to reliable schedule data. By connecting project schedules directly to the wider digital ecosystem, it eliminates the errors, delays, and inconsistencies that come from moving data via spreadsheets, exports, and email. With Asta Vision Plus, organisations can treat Asta Vision as a single, governed system of record for project and programme information and a trusted data foundation for BI and AI use cases, so that every decision is based on accurate data.

Built‑in governance, auditability, and consistency

Asta Vision uses standardised codes, calendars, locking, and version control so every integration works from the same governed dataset. This is particularly important for organisations operating under strict governance frameworks or complex contractual arrangements, where they must demonstrate how and when programme changes were made.

With consistent, controlled data flowing into BI and reporting tools, teams can reduce discrepancies between systems and surface schedule and contingency risks earlier at portfolio level. Commercial teams also benefit from stronger audit trails, making it easier to reconstruct events and support claims or dispute resolution.

Secure, structured integration with Asta Vision Plus API

At the core of Asta Vision Plus is Asta Vision API, a secure, structured way to access Asta Powerproject programme data including projects, tasks, workflows, progress periods, code libraries, and calendars. The API allows organisations to integrate Asta Vision with BI dashboards, ERP systems, BIM tools, field applications, and AI solutions, keeping every system aligned on a single version of the truth.

By automating the flow of updates between site tools and the master schedule, Asta Vision Plus reduces manual data entry, cuts the risk of data‑entry errors, and keeps programmes closer to site reality. This gives planners and portfolio leaders earlier visibility of emerging delays and knock‑on risks, helping them take action before issues impact time, cost, or margin. At the same time, it exposes governed, consistent schedule data so customers and partners can build predictive models, copilots, and assistants on a trusted planning backbone.

Designed around real construction delivery pain points

Asta Vision Plus has been developed around specific, day‑to‑day pain points in modern construction and infrastructure delivery:​

Fragmented tools and data silos
Digital and IT teams often manage fragile integrations between planning, ERP, BIM, and reporting tools. Using Asta Vision API as a central, structured project data hub reduces integration complexity and improves data quality for BI, BIM and AI use cases across the ecosystem.

Lag between site and programme
Progress is often captured in mobile apps, digital forms, or site systems long before it reaches the master schedule. With Asta Vision Plus, these updates can flow directly into Asta Vision via the API, mapping onto activities in a controlled way and keeping the schedule much closer to site reality.

Poor visibility of emerging risks
Portfolio leaders need to see where slippage and contingency burn are building up across multiple projects. By establishing a consistent data foundation, Asta Vision Plus helps organisations create portfolio‑level KPIs and risk indicators they can trust and act on earlier.

Limited ability to predict issues before they land
Most reporting is still backward‑looking, making it hard to see where today’s small delays will turn into tomorrow’s overruns. The Asta Vision Plus roadmap introduces AI‑powered predictive dashboards, using historical schedule data and clean API feeds to forecast schedule health, contingency burn and delivery reliability weeks in advance, so teams can prioritise interventions, protect margins and demonstrate proactive risk management.

A roadmap to historical insight and AI‑ready analytics

The initial release of Asta Vision Plus focuses on unlocking and governing live schedule data through the API, so teams can trust the information feeding their dashboards and reports. Over time, Asta Vision Plus will evolve into a full historical planning and predictive insight layer, allowing organisations to query historical schedule versions and see how delivery performance has changed over time.

The roadmap includes unlocking historic schedules into the BI database and introducing AI‑powered dashboards that forecast schedule health, contingency burn and delivery reliability several weeks ahead, giving teams earlier warning of slippage, bottlenecks, and reliability issues. Elecosoft will continue to invest in AI capabilities on top of this foundation from predictive dashboards to smarter assistants so customers can move from reactive reporting to proactively identifying issues, protecting margins and demonstrating data‑driven performance to their clients.
