My scope of work consisted of

●      The general overhaul of the schedule to get an acceptable baseline and to set up the system needed to keep it updated and in line with the actual progress at site.

●      To set & manage progress values, schedule changes, histograms, resource loads.

●      To calculate & monitor productivity. Analyze and warn management on issues affecting the timely successful completion of the works.

●      Setup and update critical to startup activity matrix’s for top management meetings.

●      Lead subcontractors in planning & monitoring issues to provide a simple and common standard for the management and monitoring of the works. I would do this basically by overhauling their planning and monitoring setup.
