• Minimum of 3 years of experience in project scheduling, preferably in the electrical infrastructure construction industry.
• Proficiency in Primavera P6, including the ability to independently build, baseline, update, analyze, and report an assigned project schedule.
• Working knowledge of critical path methodology (CPM), including predecessor and successor logic, constraint use, total float, and critical path identification.
• Experience establishing and maintaining schedule baselines and performing progress, variance, and float analysis.
• Experience preparing schedule narratives and supporting time impact analyses (TIAs).
• Familiarity with resource loading, Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) development, and contractual schedule submittal requirements.
• Strong analytical, communication, and collaboration skills, with a focus on safety and project excellence.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain master schedules in collaboration with the management team, ensuring that all phases of the project are properly planned and accounted for.
• Break down the master schedule into multiple 3-week look-ahead schedules, coordinating with crews and providing timely notifications to customers.
• Build activity logic in Primavera P6, establishing predecessor and successor relationships and applying only those constraints required to reflect genuine project restrictions.
• Establish the schedule baseline with the project manager, documenting the scope, logic, and constraints the baseline reflects.
• Independently develop and maintain assigned project schedules; major baseline revisions, logic changes affecting contractual milestones, recovery plans, and time impact analyses (TIAs) are subject to Project Controls review and approval.
• Develop and maintain the project Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) in accordance with project controls and estimating standards.
• Resource-load schedules with direct labor and equipment to support crew planning and manpower forecasting.
• Perform all scheduling work in accordance with Summit Line Project Controls procedures, CPM Technical Standards & Requirements, contractual scheduling specifications, and approved project-specific requirements.
• Track baseline schedules and update them on a weekly basis to reflect any changes or delays, ensuring the schedule remains aligned with project goals.
• Monitor project progress against the schedule, identify deviations, and propose corrective actions to keep the project on track.
• Collaborate with project managers to ensure schedule updates are accurate and reflect the current project status.
• Perform total float and critical path analysis each update cycle, flagging activities with negative float or eroding float to the project manager.
• Perform schedule QA/QC and health analysis in accordance with Summit Line CPM Technical Standards & Requirements, contractual scheduling specifications, and applicable industry standards, including DCMA 14-point metrics where required; identify and correct logic deficiencies in accordance with those standards.
• Develop and generate insightful reports from scheduling software, providing detailed analyses of project timelines, resource allocation, and potential risks.
• Communicate schedule updates and critical path analyses to project stakeholders, ensuring transparency and alignment with Summit Line's standards.
• Prepare monthly schedule narrative reports covering progress, critical path movement, float consumption, and any recovery actions underway.
• Prepare time impact analyses (TIAs) for change orders, differing site conditions, and weather events for review by the Project Controls Manager or designated Senior Scheduler.
• Confirm schedules meet contractual submittal formats, review cycles, and owner reporting requirements.
• Collaborate with the material procurement team to track material lead times and shipping dates, ensuring that materials are available when needed and that project schedules are not delayed.
• Integrate material availability into the project schedule to maintain work continuity and prevent delays.
• Consult with project managers and field supervision to develop crew assignments, tasks, and subtasks that align with the overall project schedule and meet Summit Line's high standards.
• Facilitate regular schedule review meetings with project teams to ensure alignment and address any potential issues early on.
