Kenny, I love your videos and I especially like your example at 10:36 where the guys say "no, no, no" when asked if they think we should extend the remaining duration and the finish date. Of course they don't want to. They know that task has successors and they know that extending the planned finish will have consequences, so they pretend it is not going to happen. But whether they choose to plan for it or not, it will happen. I would not ask for a forecast finish date, but rather a remaining duration. "but it is the same thing" I hear you say. Well, when we first planned the project we did not estimate dates and we did not ask people to estimate dates. We estimated durations, which is remaining duration entirely if there is no actual, and we let the combination of durations and predecessors determine the dates. Same thing applies part way through the project at any given status date, where the update includes both re-planning and re-scheduling. So I would not ask for dates and even reluctant to ask for remaining duration. Rather, if you have a 50 and 60 that implies, by default, that the remaining duration should be 3 days, not 2, unless someone can give a good reason why not. And not just something like, "well, we did not work very hard for 3 days but we intend to work harder for the next 2 days". The model is trying to tell you something. If you ignore it then in 2 days at the next status date the task will not be actually finished, and the remaining duration will be 1 day.

Export the Azure, Chat GPT, Revit, Plant 3D, Civil 3D, Inventor, ENGI file of the Building or Refinery to Excel, prepare Budget 1 and export it to COBRA. Prepare Budget 2 and export it to Microsoft Project. Solve the problems of Overallocated Resources, Planning Problems, prepare the Budget 3 with which the construction of the Building or the Refinery is going to be quoted.
