• Prepare resource-loaded and cost-loaded schedules when required.
• Maintain and update project schedules on a weekly and monthly basis.
• Perform Critical Path Method (CPM) analysis and identify schedule risks.
• Monitor project progress and compare actual performance against the baseline schedule.
• Coordinate with Project Managers, Superintendents, Engineers, Estimators, and Subcontractors to obtain schedule updates.
• Prepare schedule narratives describing project status, progress, critical activities, and recovery plans.
• Identify schedule delays and analyze impacts to project completion.
• Develop recovery schedules and acceleration plans when required.
• Perform Time Impact Analyses (TIA) and forensic schedule analysis for delay claims.
• Analyze owner-caused, contractor-caused, utility, weather, and third-party delays.
• Prepare schedule exhibits for change orders, claims, and dispute resolution.
• Review subcontractor schedules for compliance with contract requirements.
• Assist estimating teams during bid phase with schedule development and phasing plans.
• Coordinate schedule logic with traffic control phasing, utility relocations, environmental restrictions, and permit requirements.
• Track project milestones, float consumption, near-critical activities, and schedule performance metrics.
• Participate in project planning meetings, progress meetings, and owner schedule reviews.
• Ensure schedules comply with contract specifications including TXDOT scheduling requirements.
• Support management with executive-level schedule reporting and dashboard development.
• Maintain historical schedule documentation and schedule revisions throughout the life of the project.
• Assist with preparation of extension of time requests and contract modifications.
• Collaborate with field personnel to verify production rates and sequencing of work activities.
• Develop look-ahead schedules ranging from two to six weeks for field operations.

Required Skills & Abilities

• Advanced proficiency in Primavera P6.
• Strong understanding of Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling.
• Experience developing baseline, update, recovery, and as-built schedules.
• Ability to perform Time Impact Analysis (TIA) and create a TIA report.
