Jakten

Construction project controls for capital projects

Jakten is a growing suite of construction project controls products. Jakten Risk is available now — turning estimate uncertainty, dependencies, and discrete risk events into defensible funding analysis and decision-ready reports on infrastructure you control. Additional Jakten products are planned.

Your data. Your environment.

Project data, estimates, and risk models live on Windows machines you control — never uploaded to someone else's cloud.

Built for construction

Made for estimators and preconstruction teams on capital projects, EPC, industrial, and infrastructure work.

Defensible results

Structured risk registers, Monte Carlo simulation, and executive reporting you can stand behind in funding reviews.

From estimate to defensible number

Three steps between the estimate you have and the contingency you can stand behind.

1

Start from your estimate

Bring in WBS-coded estimate lines and set risk potential per line — Low, Medium, or High — using your company's bands.

2

Model what could go wrong

Add risk events, map dependencies between packages, and let correlation reflect how costs really move together.

3

Run thousands of project outcomes

Monte Carlo simulation returns P50 / P75 / P90 funding levels and contingency at selected confidence levels — with the reasons why.

See Jakten Risk in action

Built around how preconstruction teams actually work — estimate lines in, funding analysis out.

Walk into the funding review with a report, not a spreadsheet

Jakten Risk generates an executive funding analysis with the base estimate, P-level funding targets, contingency at the selected confidence level, and the drivers behind it — formatted as decision-ready analysis leadership can review.

When the owner or your CFO asks why this number, the answer is on the page. Jakten supports professional judgment; it does not approve or authorize funding decisions.

  • Contingency drivers with measured attribution
  • Branded, board-ready output in one click

How you deploy — and who keeps the data

Jakten Platform is Windows desktop software. Your project data never leaves your network.

One estimator, one PC

Install Platform on a single Windows PC. Everything — estimates, risk models, results — lives on that machine.

Office team, shared server

Run Platform Server on an office server. Each estimator connects a desktop client over your LAN — one shared source of truth.

Office deployment topology with shared Platform Server and desktop clients
Office profile: one shared server, multiple desktop clients, one company activation — all inside your network.
Your data. Your environment. jakten.net handles checkout, licensing, and documentation only — project data, estimates, and risk models stay on infrastructure you control.

A growing Jakten product suite

Jakten Risk is available now. Additional Jakten products are planned for the same customer-hosted Platform — specialized modules that share users, standards, and project context over time.
