In order to successfully perform client project work, we perform a high level of quality assurance and using quality control methodology to attain the correct balance between the project triad of scope, cost and schedule. This requires a comprehensive project management approach and detailed work plans. Key members of our project management team have experience and expertise on both large and small, complex multidisciplinary projects. We develop a project management plan to ensure that all project goals, milestones and deliverables are successfully achieved within the scheduled time frame. Our Project Management Plan typically includes:

  • Analysis and design of objectives and events
  • Project scheduling
  • Action item “punch list”
  • Project work plan
  • Data reporting and management plan
  • Planning work according to the objectives
  • Assessing and controlling risk
  • Estimating required resources
  • Allocating resources
  • Organizing the work

  • Change control
  • Tracking and reporting progress
