Disclosed are systems and methods for task completion and/or task commencement time estimate re-assessment in a task scheduling system. For example, by determining a remaining task time for a task which has been initiated, a resource may be queried as to whether the task will be completed within the remaining time. If not, the resource is asked to provide a new remaining time for completion of the task. During the new remaining time, the resource may be queried as to whether the task will be completed within the remaining time. If not, the resource is asked to provide another new remaining time for completion of the task. These steps can be repeated until the remaining task time is less than the minimum review threshold. In this way, downstream tasks can be delivered to the task buffer with a reasonable assurance that the upstream task or tasks are near completion. 10 hours 5 hours Display Query: 305 Confirmation that FIG. 3 will be complete in 5 hours?
