1. Building on the analytics engine in Fuse, Fuse 360 automates scenario generation and decision support making it the fastest and easiest means
of project optimization. As both a planning and execution tool, Fuse 360 can be used to align plans with target dates and project stakeholder
expectations and as a means of getting a delayed project back on track.

Acceleration
Achieve faster, cheaper, more aligned schedules through Fuse 360
automated acceleration. Unlike traditional “network crash” techniques,
Fuse 360 provides pinpointed focus, intelligent optimization and selects
the most efficient means of achieving acceleration goals.
Goal-Based
With Fuse 360, you set the acceleration goals. Find scenarios that
accelerate the schedule by three months, decrease remaining duration
by 20%, or even let Fuse 360 find the best finish date possible.
Intelligence
Only you know where acceleration is physically possible. Fuse 360
captures this insight through criteria, defined by you, directing where
to focus acceleration efforts. This means targeting a certain WBS,
location, resource, or even a specific activity for acceleration.
Recovery
Fuse 360 can generate scenario options from any point in the project
whether it is the planning phase or after costly delays. Identify the
fastest and most efficient means of recovering project delays.

2. Project Quality Optimization
Use the Fuse schedule cleanser to remove
redundancies and constraints, creating a
clean version of the schedule.
Acceleration Script
Define the simulation script, including where
to focus acceleration efforts and how to
prioritize.
Acceleration Goals
Set acceleration goals by percentage,
target date, or let Fuse 360 find the best
date possible.
Visualization
Fuse 360 automatically generates an
optimized and accelerated version of
your schedule. View the results in the
acceleration bar or the Fuse timeline view.

TimelineViewScenarioAnalysis
Compare Multiple Scenarios
Use the Fuse timeline view and Forensic Analyzer to compare
scenarios and identify the best acceleration option. Use
Fuse metrics to evaluate the quality and achievability of each
scenario.
Compression Efficiency Factor™
The Fuse 360 compression efficiency factor™ looks at how
much effort is required for acceleration allowing you to easily
identify which contractor, WBS, or phase of the schedule to
provides the highest return.
Run Multiple Simulations
Create acceleration scripts to try multiple acceleration options.
Try accelerating construction activities, changing calendars,
or reducing the remaining duration of a certain WBS, then
compare results.
