• Developed comprehensive project schedules for ongoing sites, meticulously planning timelines, resource allocation, and milestones. Successfully secured approval from consultants and clients, establishing these schedules as the official Project Baseline. • Prepared detailed S-curves, cash flow projections, manpower, and equipment histograms, providing visual and analytical tools that supported project tracking, and resource management throughout the project lifecycle. • Set specific, measurable targets for each phase of the project plan, ensuring that all activities met client specifications and project objectives. Regularly reviewed these targets to align with evolving project demands and client expectations. • Estimated realistic timescales for project activities and established Project Measuring Systems (PMS) to track and manage project progress. This proactive approach enabled the timely identification of potential delays and the implementation of corrective actions. • Developed recovery schedules as necessary, recalibrating project timelines to address any delays or unforeseen challenges. • Updated progress data regularly and conducted EVA for all active sites, providing a clear picture of project performance relative to the Baseline Program. This analysis enabled the identification of variances and informed corrective actions. • Developed detailed 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month lookahead schedules, providing the site team with a clear roadmap for upcoming activities. These schedules were critical in aligning day-to-day operations with the overall project strategy. • Coordinated effectively with site engineers, procurement, and technical design departments, ensuring that materials, drawings, and other critical resources were available when needed. • Maintained detailed records of delays and actively worked on Extension of Time (EoT) claims, preparing robust justifications and documentation to support claims.

Roles and responsibilities • Conducted daily site visits and coordinated with Supervisors, ensuring on-ground activities were aligned with the project plan and addressing any immediate concerns or issues that arose. • Assisted the Senior Planning Engineer in updating work progress, meticulously tracking data in Excel and incorporating these updates into Primavera P6. • Established Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to monitor various aspects of the project, including productivity, safety, and adherence to timelines. These KPIs provided valuable insights into project performance and helped in making informed decisions. • Assigned tasks to Supervisors and Foremen, ensuring that each team member had clear objectives and understood their responsibilities • Conducted timely inspections of work with the consultant, ensuring that all activities met quality standards and project specifications. These inspections helped in identifying potential issues early, reducing the risk of rework and delays. • Prepared daily construction reports, documenting progress, challenges, and any deviations from the plan. These reports were essential for keeping the project team and stakeholders informed of the day-to-day status of the project.

Turnkey Projects Commercial Building & Villas • Prepared detailed time schedules, resource histograms, and S-curves in coordination with the Project Manager, ensuring comprehensive planning and accurate tracking of project progress on a weekly and monthly basis. • Developed and maintained construction programs for both weekly and monthly intervals, producing detailed reports that reflected current project status and highlighted any deviations from the plan. • Formulated recovery or crash programs when the original approved schedule was violated, implementing strategies to address and rectify delays within specified timeframes. • Compared planned resource requirements with actual resources on site, identifying any shortages or surpluses of manpower, equipment, or materials. This proactive approach facilitated timely adjustments and ensured efficient resource utilization. • Initiated site operations at various locations, including the hiring of subcontractors for initial tasks, setting up the groundwork for effective project execution. • Oversaw all civil work, including concrete, brick masonry, and finishing tasks, from initiation through completion, ensuring adherence to project specifications and quality standards. • Conducted quality checks on work executed by subcontractors, verifying that all work met the required standards and specifications before final approval. • Managed invoicing for work completed by subcontractors, ensuring accurate billing and timely processing of payments. • Calculated quantities of materials (such as cement, sand, crushed stone, reinforcement, and formwork) required for various tasks, ensuring accurate procurement and efficient use of resources. • Developed 3D models and plans for bid submissions, utilizing advanced modeling techniques to present detailed and competitive project proposals. .
