Schedule Management
Strict adherence to a schedule is a key ingredient in a successful construction project. A project that is not progressing smoothly impacts the contractor, and most importantly, the owner. Once a completion date is agreed upon it must be met. Based on the history of our company, we take extreme pride in on-time completion for our projects.
We use the following types of scheduling for our projects:
Construction Schedule
Two-Week Schedule of Objectives
Progress Analysis and Reporting
Construction Schedule
After contract award and prior to mobilization the successful bidder will develop a working schedule. The contractor’s schedule will reflect the following:
Schedule dates will be within the parameters of the Master Schedule.
Schedule format may vary based on the requirements of the individual contractor.
Schedule will be in sufficient detail to relate to other construction activities and to effectively measure progress.
Two-Week Schedule of Objectives
Using the Construction Schedule as the baseline document, a two-week schedule will be prepared to provide a “real time” plan for construction activities over a two-week period.
This will be prepared as follows:
A weekly meeting will be held with the Project Team to
Review each activity scheduled to start or be completed within two weeks following the week of the meeting
Identify the items required to accomplish each activity, i.e.
Coordination with other contractors
Engineering
Prerequisite Activities
Access
Material
Construction Equipment
Manpower
Verify availability of the required items.
Based on the actual results of the required items, a bar chart or tabular schedule will be prepared covering the construction activities for the next two weeks.
