Surface project exceptions
before the portfolio meeting.
The agent monitors milestones, approvals, consultant actions, documents, risks and financial exposure across active projects, then drafts exception summaries for managers and executives.
- Reads: Milestones, approvals, exposure
- Watches: Every active project
- Produces: Exception summaries
- You confirm: Decisions and priorities

How this job is done now,
and why it wears people out.
- Milestones move across separate trackers: Each project tells its own version of the programme.
- Consultant actions hide in meetings and emails: The open-items list exists only as fragments.
- Approval risk is hard to compare: Which project's consent is actually the riskiest? Nobody can say quickly.
- Portfolio updates are assembled by hand: The exception report costs a day to build, every cycle.
- Executives see issues after the window: The problem reaches the meeting after the moment it could be fixed cheaply.
HOW THE AGENT TAKES OVER
Trigger → assess → draft → your confirmation.
- Trigger: A milestone moves, an action goes overdue, or exposure shifts on any project.
- Assess: The agent traces the movement against the portfolio picture: approvals, actions, risk, money.
- Draft: It prepares the exception summary, the milestone risk list and the decisions-required draft.
- Confirm: The development manager reviews, reprioritises and owns what goes to the executives.
What goes in.
What comes out.
- What the agent reads: Only what the agreed data boundary allows. (Project milestones and stages; Approval registers and conditions; Consultant actions and documents; Risk registers; Financial exposure and dashboards)
- What the agent produces: Drafts your team can judge, never silent decisions. (Portfolio exception summary; Milestone risk list; Approval status summary; Executive update draft; Decisions-required list)
FOUNDATIONS
Built on a system that already runs for real.
The agent extends our development management system, which runs DDDI Group's own portfolio and scaled with it from 2 to 34 projects.
Ships the way every Cyberate agent ships: shadow first, then assisted, then routine, with human confirmation designed in from day one.

FAQ
Common questions.
Does it replace the development manager?
No. It reconstructs the picture the DM used to build by hand, so their time goes to decisions instead of assembly.
Can it prioritise across projects?
Yes. Exceptions are ranked across the portfolio, not listed per project, which is what the Monday meeting actually needs.
What feeds it?
The milestones, registers and financial views already tracked in the development management system, inside the agreed boundary.
Can the summaries go straight to the board?
Drafts route through your review first. Nothing is issued without human sign-off.
