Schedule Review and Management
Why Scheduling Is the Backbone of a Project
Time is a precious resource in construction. Missed deadlines can ripple into higher costs, contractor conflicts, and team frustration. I help clients build realistic schedules–and manage them. The backbone of the schedule offers the project a predictable rhythm throughout construction, so team partners can anticipate and plan.
My Approach to Scheduling
A good schedule does more than track dates—it aligns contractors, deliveries, inspections, and approvals into one coordinated plan. Enforcing and updating the schedule may require weekly meetings or simple status for smaller jobs but hitting milestones as planned is a demonstration of success. I bring in an experienced Scheduler as project complexity requires. My scheduling support includes:
Developing clear and achievable project goals
Early schedule commitment from all contractors and subcontractors
Contractor coordination
Environmental impact time
Sequencing trades and phases efficiently
Early and aggressive corrective recommendations
Monitoring progress against milestones
Adjusting for changes and keeping the team aligned
With decades of experience, I know how to anticipate common bottlenecks and create contingency plans that keep work moving forward.
Benefits of Professional Schedule Management
Project progress ‘on schedule’ conveys confidence to all builders on the job with Owners benefitting from plan success and contractors benefitting from making their profit-plan. Strong schedule management also fosters accountability across the project team, minimizing downtime and miscommunication..
