This Project level Insights tool helps you monitor and optimise your payment application and billing workflows for a project. Teams can pinpoint bottlenecks in billing workflows, improve cash flow and reduce the risk of missed or inaccurate main contract payment applications.

This insight surfaces key payment application approval metrics by highlighting pending or overdue payment applications for the project. Additionally, it reveals main contract payment application creation gaps by pinpointing lags between payment application approval and main contract payment application creation. This insight helps you to:

• View the total outstanding main contract payment applications for the project.

• See the average days required to approve payment applications at the Project level, including the company and the industry averages for the relevant cohort.

• View a summary of main contract payment application status and average completion days across all active projects, with a Portfolio breakdown by project including pending and total counts.

• Analyse the main contract payment applications by status. For example, the Insights tool shows the total payment application counts alongside the count of approved, under review, revise and rebuilt and draft.

• Drill down to view outstanding payment applications by payment application.

This Project level Insights tool helps you monitor and optimise your payment application and billing workflows for a project. Teams can pinpoint bottlenecks in billing workflows, improve cash flow and reduce the risk of missed or inaccurate subcontractor payment applications.

This insight surfaces key payment application approval metrics by highlighting pending or overdue payment applications for the project. Additionally, it pinpoints lags between subcontractor payment application approval and main contract payment application creation This insight helps you to:

• View the total outstanding subcontractor payment applications for the project.

• See the average days required to approve payment applications at the Project level, including the company and the industry averages for the relevant cohort.

• View a summary of subcontractor payment application status and average completion days across all active projects, with a Portfolio breakdown by project including pending and total counts.

• Analyse the payment applications by status. For example, the Insights tool displays total payment application counts and the count of approved, under review, pending owner approval, revise and rebuilt and draft.

• Drill down to explore data by contract company to analyse approval times from longest to shortest, total payment applications and amounts. You can view subcontractor payment applications by status to highlight outstanding funds (for example, outstanding pounds).

This Insight is accessible through the project-level Insights side panel. The Insight surfaces disruptions captured in Site Diaries that have not yet been linked to a tracked Procore item by extracting delay information from the last four weeks of field descriptions, comments and diary entries.

This insight categorizes delays into the following types - Weather Delay, Material Shortage, Labour Issue, Equipment Failure and Other. It highlights which delay mentions are already linked to an RFI, observation, snag item or inspection and how many remain unlinked. Using this insight, you can:

• See risk for the field logged disruptions - which are grouped by delay type for the selected work week (for example, weather delays, material shortages, labour issues, equipment failures and other risks). For example, it summarises the current work week with a Quick Insight callout.

• View a chart breaking disruptions down by type — including Weather Delay, Material Shortage, Labor Issue, Equipment Failure, and Other — and a linkage rate showing the count of mentions linked versus unlinked.

• Find what still needs an action — a linked-versus-unlinked view shows which disruptions are tied to an RFI, Observation, or Incident and which are still just field notes.

• Move from insight to action — From the expanded view, you can review every active mention of risk in the selected work week with the date, project, issue type, excerpt and linkage status. Then, you can jump directly into the Site Diary to link the mention to an existing RFI, Observation or Issue or perform one of the following actions:

  • Dismiss the delay type,

  • Directly link the object that allows to create a new workflow for the problem tools, or

  • Open the Daily Log or a report in context.

By making unstructured Daily Log content actionable, this Insight helps project teams close the loop on field-reported risks faster and gives company leaders visibility into how consistently disruptions are being followed up across the portfolio.

Click View all mentions of risk in Site Diaries to view a pop-out displaying all mentions within the site diaries. Click Show More to view a modal displaying up to 12 mentions.

This Project level Insights tool helps you rack equipment activity directly at the Project level. This Insights tool is available in the Project Insights side panel. Project teams can quickly identify and address idle equipment or machinery to reduce unnecessary cost. They can monitor equipment usage and idle equipment over a trailing 7-day window without manually cross-referencing Site Diaries, timesheets, inspections and rental records and get two concrete next actions in the tool.

The Equipment utilisation - last 7 days Insights tool shows the following:

• Quick insight section: Instantly see the total count of equipment sitting completely idle over the past 7 days (for example, no engine activity, movement or mentions in Site Diaries, timesheets or inspections).

• Equipment utilisation breakdown chart: View the interactive donut chart - which shows total equipment on the project with utilised and idle shares and a 100% positive state when all equipment is active.

• Recommended next actions: Access direct guidance to review idle equipment, return rented equipment or reassign machinery to active scopes of work and mitigate Budget risk.

• Detailed drill-down: Click View Idle equipment on this project to view an itemised list of idle equipment records in a different screen. This new screen contains a header showing the project name, the 7-day window and how many of the project's equipment records are idle. You can view the equipment records list with Equipment ID, Type, Idle Days, Last Activity Date and Last Detected in (the source where it was last detected - for example, Site Diary, timesheet or inspection sorted by Idle Days).

Click View all equipment to navigate to the project's Equipment tool directly from this Insights tool. Similarly, click Got to reports to go to the reports page.

This Project level Insights tool is available in the Insights side panel. This Insights tool shows how much open and pending change event value sits outside the current contract scope for a project. It summarises total out-of-scope value, breaks it out against pending scope and in scope value and calls out the percentage and pound value that is still missing a potential variation or main contract variation (MCV). It surfaces unbilled out-of-scope exposure and its age directly. Project and finance teams can find unbilled scope earlier, prioritise which change event need a variation first and reduce the aged exposure that is hardest to recover.

The Company level Insights tool provides a forward-looking, Portfolio-wide view of where planned labour hours exceed confirmed crew capacity over a configurable horizon (default to the next 4 weeks). This insight provides a quick summary showing projects at risk of understaffing and weeks with Portfolio-level shortfalls. Workforce Planning is currently manual and reactive — understaffing is often discovered only when projects start slipping, causing programme delay, overtime cost and rushed crew reassignments. This insight makes short-horizon understaffing risk visible at the Portfolio level so leaders can act proactively. The insight shows:

• A Gap Analysis bar comparing Planned, Confirmed and Gap hours. You can see the size of the shortfall in absolute terms.

• A half-gauge visualising total number of projects at risk.

• A ranked list of top projects missing workforce hours, showing the project name, the week the gap occurs and the size of the gap in hours. This helps resource managers and operations leaders know exactly where to focus.

• Drill-through options to see the full report or open the total hours view to rebalance crew, accelerate hiring or adjust programmes before shortfalls reach the site. Click View projects with highest staffing gap to view the list of active projects that are at risk of understaffed.

This Company level Insights tool helps you find workers who logged overlapping hours across multiple projects during a pay period. It shows at the Company level how many workers have time entries that overlap on the same day, along with total overlapping hours, the number of projects impacted and the estimated duplicate labour cost based on payroll. Using this insight, payroll and operations teams can identify and correct duplicate entries before they affect job costs.

Note: The Overlapping time entries insight is available with the Project execution enterprise package (not Resource management).

The overlapping time entries insight shows the following:

• A Quick Insight summary indicating the hours of overlapping time entries logged across your projects. It also notes that these entries may represent copied or duplicate timesheets, flagged for your review. 

• A statistical summary displaying the number of workers flagged, total hours with overlap, projects affected and the estimated duplicate cost.

• A trend chart tracking workers with overlapping entries over the last three pay periods.

• A project table showing the breakdown of the workers and estimated duplicate cost per project and each project expands to show the affected employees. For example, this insight shows breakouts by project and by individual worker, illustrating which multiple projects they are assigned to on a specific date.

• A detailed list with one row per timecard entry on a flagged day, including the worker, classification, date, project, hours and duplicated cost. Click the View all flagged entries link to open the All overlapping entries screen that displays the detailed list.

• A view of the top projects by overlapping hours. Click Go to report to open the full report to review and correct entry.

It surfaces unbilled out-of-scope exposure and its age directly. Project and finance teams can find unbilled scope earlier, prioritise which change events need a variation first and reduce the aged exposure that is hardest to recover.

The Company level Out-of-scope change events Insights tool shows the following:

• Quick insight: This section summarises the total open and pending out-of-scope change event value and the percentage of it missing a PV or MCV. It also shows how many projects contribute to that value.

• Open and pending change events by scope: This section displays a three-metric row showing Out of scope (emphasised), Pending scope and In scope values across projects. It also highlights the percentage and pound value that is still missing a PV or MCV. This helps teams to track the out-of-scope exposure without manually auditing the change events log.

• Open and pending change events by age (days): This section displays a bar chart grouping open and pending change event values by age in 0-30, 31-60, 61-90 and 90+ day ranges. This helps you see how long exposure has been outstanding. The age breakdown indicates teams which exposure to prioritise first.

• Drill-down option: Click View projects with out-of-scope change events to view the Projects driving exposure table. This table lists top projects with Project name, Contract value, Out of scope change events and % missing PV/MCV columns. Click a project name to view details.
