Logic Checks

CheckDefault ThresholdSeverityDescription
Missing Logic> 5% of activitiesHighActivities with no predecessors or no successors
Negative FloatAny activityCriticalActivities with negative total float indicating schedule overrun
High Float> 44 working days TFMediumUnusually high total float suggesting missing logic
LeadsAny lead presentMediumNegative lag on relationships (leads)
Lags> 5% of relationshipsMediumPositive lag on relationships
Negative LagAny negative lagHighNegative lag values that can cause calculation issues
FS Relationships< 90% FSLowFinish-to-Start relationships as a percentage of total
Hard Constraints> 5% of activitiesMediumMandatory constraints that override CPM logic

Duration Checks

CheckDefault ThresholdSeverityDescription
High Duration> 44 working daysMediumActivities with original duration exceeding threshold
Zero DurationAny task with OD = 0MediumNon-milestone tasks with zero original duration
Milestone DurationMilestone with OD > 0LowMilestones that have a non-zero duration
Invalid DatesAny occurrenceHighActivities with illogical date combinations
Level of Effort> 10% of activitiesLowLOE activities as percentage of total
Approval Duration> 20 working daysMediumApproval-type activities with excessive duration

Constraint Checks

CheckDefault ThresholdSeverityDescription
Constraint Percentage> 5% of activitiesMediumActivities with date constraints
Dangling ActivitiesAny occurrenceHighActivities with neither predecessors nor successors
Open EndedAny occurrenceHighActivities missing either a predecessor or successor
Start-Finish RelationshipsAny SF relationshipMediumStart-to-Finish relationships (unusual and often erroneous)

Critical Path Checks

CheckDefault ThresholdSeverityDescription
CPLI (Critical Path Length Index)< 1.0HighRatio of critical path length to project duration — below 1.0 signals overrun risk
BEI (Baseline Execution Index)< 1.0HighRatio of planned progress to actual progress along the critical path

Resource Checks

CheckDefault ThresholdSeverityDescription
Missing Resources> 20% unassignedMediumPercentage of activities without resource assignments
Resource LoadingOver-allocation detectedMediumResources assigned beyond their maximum availability

Progress Checks

CheckDefault ThresholdSeverityDescription
Invalid ProgressAny occurrenceHighActivities with contradictory progress data (e.g., actual start but 0% complete)
Out-of-SequenceAny occurrenceMediumActivities progressing before their predecessors are complete

Configuration Checks

CheckDefault ThresholdSeverityDescription
Activity TypeNon-standard types > 10%LowActivities not using Task Dependent type
Percent Complete TypeNon-standard types > 10%LowActivities not using Duration-based percent complete
Duration TypeNon-standard types > 10%LowActivities not using Fixed Duration & Units
Constraint TypeHard constraints > 5%MediumActivities using mandatory constraint types
Secondary ConstraintAny secondary constraintLowActivities with secondary constraints applied

Best Practice Checks

CheckDefault ThresholdSeverityDescription
Logic Density< 1.5 relationships/activityMediumAverage number of relationships per activity
Baseline IntegrityBaseline missingHighWhether a baseline schedule is set and aligned
Project Milestones< 2 milestonesLowMinimum number of key milestones expected
Weightage DistributionUneven distributionLowHow evenly weights are spread across check categories (opt-in)

Regional Checks

CheckDefault ThresholdSeverityDescription
Ramadan CalendarCalendar not adjustedMediumWhether project calendars account for Ramadan working hour changes
Authority Approval MilestonesMissing approvalsMediumWhether required authority approval milestones are present

Severity Levels

LevelColourImpact
CriticalRedDirect schedule integrity risk — must be resolved
HighOrangeSignificant quality concern — resolve before submission
MediumAmberModerate concern — review and address when possible
LowBlueInformational — consider for best practice compliance

Threshold Customisation

All thresholds can be customised per-workspace in Quality Settings. Changes apply to all subsequent quality check runs. The Weightage Configuration page explains how to adjust the scoring weight of each check category.
