YOUR ROLE

• Develop Primavera P6 baseline CPM schedules for new projects in coordination with Project Managers, Estimating, and Operations Leadership.
• Independently review project plans, specifications, bid information, contractual requirements, and other project documentation to develop appropriate schedule structure and construction sequencing.
• Establish appropriate calendars, Work Breakdown Structures (WBS), activities, logic relationships, durations, milestones, constraints, and coding structures within Primavera P6.
• Incorporate contractual milestones, procurement activities, submittals, utility coordination, traffic control, testing, closeout activities, and other project-specific requirements into baseline schedules.
• Apply knowledge of heavy civil construction means, methods, and standard sequencing, including underground utilities, street and roadway reconstruction, and bridge construction, when developing and evaluating project schedules.
• Maintain and update project schedules based on actual project progress, changes in sequencing, change orders, schedule impacts, and information provided by the Project Team.
• Develop 'what-if,' recovery, and revised schedules when needed to evaluate potential sequencing changes and recovery options.
• Identify changes to the critical path, available float, activity sequencing, and contractual milestone dates and communicate schedule impacts to the appropriate Project Team.
• Transpose relevant budgetary, quantity, and production information from Estimating into project baseline and look-ahead schedules, as applicable.
• Organize planned quantities, production rates, labor or cost information, and schedule durations so Project Managers can compare planned performance with actual field performance.
• Identify schedule slippage, constraints, and potential schedule risks early and provide the Project Team with timely information to assist in evaluating recovery options.
• Develop Time Impact Analyses (TIAs), schedule fragnets, and other supporting schedule exhibits for delays, changes, differing site conditions, utility conflicts, change orders, and other project-impacting events.
• Support the development of standardized scheduling practices, templates, reporting, and project controls processes across Core Operations.
