Planning and control for your construction project
From the baseline schedule to periodic updates, progress reports and delay analysis — a programme that is actually used to make decisions, not just attached to the contract.
-
Baseline schedule
Work breakdown structure, activities, logic and calendars in Primavera P6 or MS Project — a fully linked programme with a clear critical path that can be controlled.
-
Updates and progress control
Periodic schedule updates, comparison against the baseline, progress analysis and deviations found before they turn into delay.
-
Delay analysis and layering
Delays separated by cause and responsibility, and the effect of each event on the completion date documented — a clear basis for extensions of time and negotiation.
-
Corrective action, not just a report
Every report comes with a proposed action — resequencing, fast-tracking or a recovery programme — grounded in ICB project management practice.
What I do
- Schedule preparation in Primavera P6 or Microsoft Project — work breakdown structure, activities, logic, calendars and the critical path.
- Schedule control and updates at regular intervals, with progress analysis and comparison against the baseline.
- Deviations found and corrective action proposed — resequencing, fast-tracking or a recovery programme.
- Delay analysis and delay layering — delays separated by cause and responsibility, and their effect on the completion date documented.
How an engagement runs
- Getting to know the project — the contract, the scope, the existing programme and where things stand.
- Agreeing the deliverables — which programme, which reports, how often.
- Preparing or reviewing the programme — and approving it as the baseline.
- Continuous control — an update, a report and a proposed action every period.
