Every Project.
On Time. On Budget.
With Confidence.

Leadership teams are accountable for delivery outcomes, but the data they rely on is often inconsistent, incomplete, or lagging.

FireBreak does not report status. FireBreak measures delivery confidence.

The Delivery Confidence Score (DCS) uses deterministic ML to analyse cross-domain patterns - giving you 4-8 weeks early warning and explaining what is driving risk.

Transparent & Audit-Ready

Why DCS Is Credible

Built for regulated enterprises that need explainable, defensible forecasts—not black-box predictions

Deterministic Scoring

The same inputs always produce the same score. DCS uses mathematical modeling and statistical correlation—not generative AI or LLMs. Every prediction is repeatable and verifiable.

Evidence-Backed Predictions

Every score shows you the exact data points and cross-domain patterns that drove the prediction. You can trace every forecast back to measurable evidence in your systems.

Explainable Methodology

DCS combines schedule performance, budget burn rate, approved & pending change impact, and decision latency. Each factor contributes mathematically to the score—you see exactly how and why.

Audit-Ready Logic

Designed for regulated and enterprise environments. Every prediction includes full reasoning trail, data lineage, and confidence intervals. Defend your decisions to the board with traceable evidence.

Not black-box AI: DCS is calculated using transparent, deterministic scoring logic—not generative models or neural networks. Every score is backed by measurable data and traceable evidence, giving project leaders the confidence to act on predictions without fear of unexplainable "AI magic."

What Data Does DCS Use?

DCS reads your existing data—no re-keying, no duplicate processes, no replacing your current tools

Schedule Data

Milestones, timelines, dependencies, critical path

Budget Data

Actuals, forecasts, burn rate, contingency

Data streams converging into unified analysis

Analysed together, not in silos

Change Data

Scope changes, pending requests, impact tracking

Decision Data

Approvals, response times, bottlenecks

FireBreak DCS doesn't replace your tools—it reads them.

No re-keying data. No abandoning Jira or Excel. FireBreak DCS connects to your existing systems, analyzes the data you already have, and reveals cross-domain patterns that no single tool can detect. You keep using what works—FireBreak DCS just makes you smarter.

Cross-Domain Intelligence

How FireBreak DCS Sees What Others Miss

Traditional tools analyze data in silos. FireBreak DCS connects the dots across all your systems.

Traditional Approach:
PM Dashboard
  • Only see schedule and task data
  • Miss budget trends
  • Can't detect decision delays
Traditional Approach:
Finance System
  • Only track budget spend
  • Miss timeline dependencies
  • React after overruns occur
Traditional Approach:
Risk Register
  • Manual risk assessments
  • Weekly or monthly updates
  • Can't predict cross-domain patterns
VS
FireBreak DCS Approach

Cross-Domain Pattern Detection

FireBreak DCS uses deterministic machine learning to analyze all your data sources together and detect compound risk patterns:

Connects All Data Sources

Integrates project management data, budget systems, change request queues, and governance logs into a unified intelligence layer

Detects Cross-Domain Patterns

Spots dangerous combinations like high burn rate + timeline dependency + decision latency that no single system can see

Predicts 4-8 Weeks Early

Analyzes trend velocity across all domains to forecast budget overruns and timeline failures weeks before they appear on traditional dashboards. Correlates budget burn rate, timeline slippage, and resource attrition simultaneously.

Explainable Predictions

Transparent predictive reasoning shows exactly which cross-domain patterns triggered the forecast. You can defend your decisions to the board with evidence-backed predictions, not gut feelings or unexplainable "AI magic."

Formula 1 pit wall with engineers analyzing real-time telemetry data

The Data Revolution That Changed Winning

Formula 1 was transformed when teams stopped relying on gut feel and post-race analysis. Today, elite teams process 300+ sensors generating 1.5 million data points per second - tyre wear, fuel load, competitor gaps, weather patterns.

They don't wait until the finish line to know if they're losing. They see patterns mid-race and adjust strategy in real-time: pit early, switch tyres, change engine modes. The teams that embraced data don't just compete - they dominate.

DCS does the same for project delivery.

It continuously analyses patterns across budget, schedule, decisions, and changes - not in silos, but together. You see what's emerging, not what's already happened. And you adjust while there's still time.

Traditional Dashboard

Like checking the lap times after the race. You see green/amber/red status, but by then it's history.

DCS Intelligence

Like the F1 pit wall - real-time cross-domain data showing patterns before they become problems. Budget burn + schedule slip + decision delays = time to adjust strategy.

The Outcome

4-8 weeks to intervene. Reallocate budget, accelerate decisions, descope features - while options still exist.

Why It Works For You

Built to fit your reality, not the other way around

Intelligence layer integrating data from multiple software tools

Intelligence Layer, Not Another Platform

Your teams keep using Jira, Monday, Excel, SAP - whatever works. DCS sits on top as an intelligence layer, reading your existing data. No migration, no retraining, no adoption battles.

  • No new tools for your teams to learn
  • Connects to your existing systems
  • Intelligence from day one

Concerned About Your Data Quality?

You're not alone - it's the #1 concern we hear. That's why we built the Data Quality Score (DQS). See exactly where your data stands across completeness, freshness, and consistency.

  • Single view across all your project systems
  • Know exactly what to fix and where
  • Available standalone or with DCS

F1 engineers never act on data they don't trust. DQS ensures you know how reliable your project data is before you act on it.

Data Quality Score - Infrastructure Programme

Overall DQS

Change Requests76%

Decision Log85%

Add budget impact to 3 pending change requests in your change control system

Why it matters: Decisions made on stale or incomplete data are guesses, not decisions. When your DQS reaches 85%+, DCS predictions become highly reliable - you'll see issues 4-8 weeks before they surface.

The Detection

Cross-domain pattern: High burn rate + timeline dependency + no budget buffer

The Prediction

In 3-4 weeks: Must choose between 6-week delay OR £68K overrun

Why This Matters

Without early warning, this becomes a crisis negotiation with the board. FireBreak gives you 4-8 weeks to make strategic choices instead of emergency panic cuts.

The Consequence

Timeline requires full budget. You can't hit both targets.

Action Required

Decide in 48 hours or face emergency scope cuts with no planning runway

Built For Project Leaders

FireBreak DCS augments your PMO's expertise with cross-domain intelligence—giving you the data-backed confidence to defend tough decisions and catch problems before they escalate

Why Portfolio Visibility Matters

Spot Patterns Across Projects

When multiple projects show declining FireBreak DCS scores simultaneously, it reveals systemic issues in resource allocation, governance, or vendor performance that single-project views miss.

Prioritize Interventions

Portfolio view shows you which projects need immediate attention (FireBreak DCS <50%) versus which are on track, helping CTOs and PMO leaders allocate scarce resources where they'll have the most impact.

Track £M-Level Risk Exposure

Aggregate "Budget at Risk" across all critical projects gives executives the real number for board reporting - not the optimistic dashboards, but the predictive early warning total.

Prevent Cascading Failures

FireBreak DCS detects when one project's failure will trigger delays in dependent projects, showing you the domino effect before it happens so you can break the chain.

  • No unified framework for confidence assessment

CIO

  • Multiple tools, no single trusted view
  • Data quality issues undermining decisions
  • Difficulty defending delivery forecasts
