PROJECTINSIDERASIA
Run a Corporate Real Estate Project From Business Case to Handover.
One connected Excel-based project delivery and controls system for corporate real estate teams, project managers, PMOs and consultants.
PIA-CRE is a connected control system: every register, tracker and dashboard reads from the same project records, so a risk raised on site is visible in the cost forecast, the milestone trend and the executive dashboard — without re-keying a single cell.
THE PROJECT-CONTROLS PROBLEM
Most corporate real estate projects are controlled from a handful of capable tools that never talk to each other. Teams keep buying corporate real estate project management templates — a risk register Excel template here, a cost control Excel template there, a commissioning tracker Excel file inherited from the last project — and each one works on its own. The failure appears between them: a design delay that never reaches the procurement tracker, a cost overrun the executive dashboard shows six weeks late.
One record, many views: a risk becomes an issue, an issue drives an action, an action protects a milestone, a milestone slip triggers a change, a change moves the cost forecast — and the executive control layer sees all of it as it happens.
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
PIA-CRE follows the full corporate real estate project lifecycle. Every stage writes to the same connected records, and WB00 reads across all of them to give you a single executive control layer.
Most office fit out project controls start at construction. PIA-CRE starts at the business case, so governance decisions, requirements and design commitments are still traceable when you commission, move and close out.
CAPABILITIES
If you were looking for project controls Excel templates, what you actually need is connection. PIA-CRE is a CRE project management toolkit whose controls compute from shared records — not documents you maintain by hand.
Risk → Issue → Action → Milestone → Change → Cost → Dashboard. Each control references the records before and after it, so consequences propagate instead of hiding in separate files.
A single, defensible measure of project health computed from the underlying controls — schedule, cost, risk, quality and readiness — never typed in by hand.
Threshold-driven warnings across fourteen project dimensions. When a control breaches its threshold, the warning surfaces before the damage does.
Business Requirement → Workplace Requirement → Design Deliverable → Procurement Package → Construction Verification → Handover Evidence. Nothing is "done" until the chain says so.
A move readiness checklist that overrides percentage-complete: one critical blocker — a failed integrated test, an open authority approval — marks the project not ready, whatever the average says.
Missing, duplicate, stale and invalid records are detected automatically, so the executive layer — the project controls dashboard Excel workbook in WB00 — is fed by data you can defend in a governance meeting.
SHOW THE PRODUCT
Every screen below is rendered from the actual PIA-CRE workbooks — the same executive dashboard, registers and trackers you will run on your own project.

AURORA DEMONSTRATION
PIA-CRE ships with the Aurora demonstration dataset: the same project in two states. Aurora Crisis shows what connected controls reveal when a fit-out project deteriorates; Aurora Recovery shows the same records after disciplined corrective action.
Fourteen of fourteen early warnings are active. The forecast final cost is S$625,000 over budget, and the connections between records show exactly why:
Two of fourteen early warnings remain standing and the cost variance is S$0. The recovery result is produced by resolving the underlying project records — PHI is never manually overridden.
Close the corrective actions, clear the defects, re-baseline the change and the Project Health Index, the early-warning panel and the executive dashboard recover together — because they were never separate.
WORKBOOK ARCHITECTURE
Each workbook owns one stage of the lifecycle; WB00 reads across all of them. Every workbook is active in every tier — your edition determines how many controls are switched on.
EDITIONS
One system, three tiers. Every edition includes all twelve workbooks; higher tiers activate more of the 267 controls.

THE CREATOR
Developed by ProjectInsiderAsia from practical corporate real estate project delivery and project-controls experience.
Every control in the system exists because a real project needed it: a risk that became an issue because nobody connected it to the schedule, a commissioning failure discovered too late to protect the move date, a dashboard that reported confidence the records did not support. PIA-CRE encodes those lessons as working controls you can run, inspect and edit.
