• Perform weekly and monthly schedule updates incorporating field progress, productivity data, change orders, and approved scope revisions.
• Conduct schedule variance analysis and prepare earned-progress and completion forecasts.
• Perform time-impact analyses (TIA) and as-built vs. as-planned comparisons to support change orders and claims.
• Develop recovery and mitigation plans when schedule performance deviates from baseline.
• Model alternatives using resource leveling, lead/lag adjustments, fast-track sequencing, and additional shifts.
• Identify constraints and analyze impacts from material delays, labor shortages, design changes, site access, and procurement issues.
• Produce weekly schedule health reports and dashboard metrics for milestone completion, critical path status, and recovery efforts.
