| challenge | brief | topics | technologies |
|---|---|---|---|
| Automating Success | This challenge focuses on improving project assurance by automating the identification of assurance evidence within standard project documentation. Participants are invited to design a solution using large language models to proactively surface relevant evidence items and highlight evidence gaps, reducing manual effort and enabling assurance managers to focus on high‑value analysis and insight rather than document searching. | solution-centre, hack25, challenge1, large-language-models, natural-language-processing, project-assurance, automation, evidence-management, assurance, llm, html, javascript, d3-js, assurance-maturity, microsoft-copilot, prompt-engineering, assurance-personas, microsoft-excel, power-query, csv | Large Language Models, Natural Language Processing, HTML, JavaScript, D3.js, Microsoft Copilot, Microsoft Excel, Power Query, CSV, Data Analysis, Prompt Engineering, JSON, Power BI, ChatGPT, Word Documents, Ollama, DeepSeek-R1, LangChain, Streamlit, Python, Tesseract OCR |
| Risk Register Regulator: Agentic Review | This challenge focuses on improving the effectiveness of project risk management by using agentic AI to automatically review risk registers, identify quality issues and opportunities, and prompt action. Teams are invited to design a prototype that applies AI personas to assess risk data, generate tailored and actionable feedback, and issue automated email nudges to relevant stakeholders. The approach aims to create a closed‑loop system that improves risk data quality, drives timely mitigation activity, and visualises change over time, enabling organisations to demonstrate tangible return on investment from automated risk assurance. | solution-centre, hack25, challenge3, agentic-ai, large-language-models, email-automation, data-visualisation, risk-management, risk-register, assurance, automation, project-controls, data-analytics, power-bi, behavioural-nudges, json, presentation, video, decision-support, python | Agentic AI, Large Language Models, Email Automation, Data Visualisation, Data Analytics, Power BI, JSON, Presentation, Video, Python, Pandas, Watchdog, Excel |
| Feature Trends for Schedule Forecasting | This challenge explores how historical and live project data can be analysed to forecast schedule performance more accurately and enable earlier intervention when delivery risks emerge. Teams are invited to design a forecasting system that uses data trends and machine learning to predict likely delays, compare planned versus actual timelines, and highlight the project features most strongly associated with schedule slippage. Solutions are expected to assess data quality, provide clear recommendations to improve it, and present insights through an interactive management dashboard, with a modular approach that allows the model to learn and improve as new project data becomes available. | solution-centre, hack25, challenge4, machine-learning, predictive-analytics, data-visualisation, project-management-dashboards, schedule-forecasting, project-controls, data-quality, delivery-performance, python, scikit-learn, streamlit, pandas, joblib, logistic-regression, linear-regression, power-bi, excel | Machine Learning, Predictive Analytics, Data Visualisation, Project Management Dashboards, Python, Scikit-learn, Streamlit, Pandas, Joblib, Logistic Regression, Linear Regression, Power BI, Excel, ChatGPT, Data Modelling |
| Intelligent Cost Management: From Estimation to Execution | This challenge examines how intelligent, data‑driven approaches can improve cost management across the full project lifecycle, from early estimates through to delivery and execution. Teams are invited to explore how advanced analytics and automation can enhance cost forecasting, track performance against estimates, identify emerging cost risks, and support timely intervention. The aim is to improve cost certainty, strengthen decision‑making, and enable organisations to better control expenditure while adapting to change during delivery. | solution-centre, hack25, challenge5, data-analytics, predictive-modelling, cost-management-tools, automation, cost-management, cost-forecasting, project-controls, financial-performance, analytics, python, tkinter, sqlite, pandas, excel, cost-estimation, data-governance, power-apps | Data Analytics, Predictive Modelling, Cost Management Tools, Automation, Python, Tkinter, SQLite, Pandas, Excel, Power Apps, Power BI, SAP Data, Power Query, PostgreSQL, SQL, DAX |
