  • Partner with estimating and preconstruction teams to establish milestone schedules, phasing assumptions, procurement strategies, and overall project durations for proposals and interviews.
  • Review drawings, specifications, contracts, and owner requirements during preconstruction to identify schedule-related risks, constraints, and opportunities.
  • Provide constructability input from a scheduling perspective to support design development, phasing decisions, budget development, general conditions planning, and contract negotiations.
  • Partner with each project’s Superintendent to build, structure, update, and maintain detailed CPM schedules in P6, including activity logic, durations, resource assignments, milestones, procurement activities, and project constraints.
  • Support baseline schedule development and formal schedule updates in alignment with contract requirements, owner submittal schedules, and project team needs.
  • Provide Superintendents with schedule data, look-ahead reports, and near-term activity sequences to support short-interval planning and field execution.
  • Incorporate subcontractor schedule input, procurement milestones, long-lead equipment tracking, and project team updates into the master schedule.
  • Create updated schedule reports and summaries for project teams, internal leadership, and owner/client distribution.
  • Perform critical path analysis, float management, schedule trend analysis, and variance reporting to identify risks and recovery opportunities.
  • Prepare Time Impact Analyses to evaluate the schedule impact of changes, delays, and unforeseen conditions.
  • Support schedule-related claim documentation and schedule dispute resolution as needed.
  • Monitor schedule performance against baseline and communicate variances, impacts, and recommended recovery strategies to project teams.
  • Present schedule status and analysis clearly to project teams, senior leadership, clients, and other stakeholders.
  • Serve as a dedicated scheduling resource across active DCAT projects, supporting multiple teams and geographic markets simultaneously.
  • Participate in project team meetings, owner meetings, subcontractor meetings, and planning sessions to represent schedule status and resolve scheduling issues.
  • Aid project engineers and project teams in using the project schedule to support RFI management, submittal planning, procurement tracking, turnover, occupancy planning, and closeout sequencing.
  • Establish, maintain, and improve DCAT scheduling standards, templates, workflows, naming conventions, documentation practices, and version control.
  • Train and mentor project managers, project engineers, and Superintendents on scheduling best practices, P6 usage, and schedule management principles.
  • Stay current on scheduling methodologies, industry standards, and scheduling software or technology developments.

Qualifications

  • Expert proficiency in Primavera P6 required; experience managing multiple concurrent project schedules in a multi-project P6 environment strongly preferred.
  • Strong working knowledge of CPM scheduling methodology, critical path analysis, float management, schedule delay analysis, and Time Impact Analysis techniques.
  • Solid understanding of construction means and methods, project delivery methods, construction sequencing, contract documents, general conditions, and owner-required schedule deliverables.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite, especially Excel, Word, and Outlook; experience with Microsoft Project is a plus.
  • Experience with Procore or other construction project management platforms preferred.
  • Ability to work effectively across multiple projects and project teams while managing competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.
