  • Ensure consistent application of scheduling standards, Critical Path Method principles, schedule-quality expectations, and governance practices.
  • Guide the team’s review of schedule logic, critical and near-critical paths, milestones, constraints, dependencies, and changes to ensure schedules accurately reflect project and program execution plans.
  • Ensure schedules are appropriately structured, sufficiently detailed, and aligned with the execution approach for the supported projects and programs.
  • Promote schedule quality, consistency, governance, and accountability across the supported Distribution portfolio.

Schedule Review, Analysis, and Reporting:

  • Provide leadership oversight for schedule analysis, performance reporting, and executive-level summaries, ensuring information is accurate, actionable, and clearly communicated.
  • Establish expectations for regular schedule reviews with Project Management and other stakeholders.
  • Guide the team in identifying schedule trends, variances, risks, and key drivers that may affect project or program delivery.
  • Ensure schedule reporting provides visibility into planned and forecasted milestones, in-service dates, critical activities, dependencies, and areas requiring action.
  • Communicate significant schedule risks, changes, and performance trends to Project Management, Project Controls, program leadership, and the Construction and Design Services Leadership Team.
  • Support the translation of detailed scheduling information into clear business insights and recommended actions.

Stakeholder Collaboration:

  • Partner with Project Management, Construction, Engineering, Design, Outage Planning, Supply Chain, Finance, and other stakeholders to support effective planning and execution.
  • Facilitate discussions to identify and resolve scheduling conflicts, constraints, dependencies, and risks.
  • Promote clear ownership and timely follow-up on schedule actions identified through recurring project and program reviews.
