Project Planning & Scheduling

Develop and maintain integrated project schedules (L1L5) covering Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Testing, Handover & Close-out.
Prepare baseline schedules, milestone plans, phase-wise and tower-wise programs.
Develop resource-loaded and cost-loaded schedules aligned with approved budgets.
Track progress against baseline; identify critical paths, slippages, and recovery actions.
Prepare look-ahead schedules (2-week, monthly, quarterly) and catch-up / recovery plans.
Conduct delay analysis, support EOT claims, and recommend mitigation strategies.

2. Cost Control & Budgeting

Coordinate preparation of project budgets in line with approved scope and design.
Establish and manage cost control systems tracking:
Budget vs Commitments vs Actuals
Monitor monthly cost performance, identify variances, and recommend corrective actions.
Prepare and update cash-flow forecasts and billing enablement plans.
Perform EVM analysis (PV, EV, AC, CPI, SPI) and forecast Estimate at Completion (EAC).

3. Monthly CTC (Cost to Complete) Preparation

Prepare and update monthly Cost-to-Complete (CTC) forecasts based on:
Physical progress
Balance scope
Approved variations
Anticipated risks and exposures
Ensure alignment between CTC, budgets, schedules, and cash flows.
Highlight cost overruns, risk items, and mitigation measures to senior management.
Support finance and leadership teams with forecast accuracy and funding visibility.

4. BOQ Preparation & Design Coordination

Coordinate with Architectural, Structural, MEP, Faade, and Infrastructure design teams for development and freeze of GFC drawings.
Support preparation, validation, and finalisation of BOQs in alignment with approved designs and construction methodology.
Ensure BOQ quantities align with planning assumptions, sequencing logic, and cost forecasts.
Participate in design reviews and value engineering exercises to optimise cost, constructability, and timelines.
Assess and communicate design change impacts on quantities, budget, schedule, and CTC.

5. DPR, MPR & Management Reporting

Prepare DPRs (Daily Progress Reports) and MPRs (Monthly Progress Reports) covering:
Physical progress
Schedule status
Cost performance
Key risks and mitigation actions
Prepare weekly, monthly, and executive management reports .
Maintain and present dashboards and MIS with clear, decision-oriented insights.
Support RERA / statutory reporting, where applicable.

6. Cross-Functional Coordination & Governance

Work closely with Execution, Design, Procurement, Contracts, Finance, CRM, and PMC teams.
Support tendering and procurement through planning inputs, BOQ alignment, delivery timelines, and cost phasing.
Maintain risk registers, hindrance logs, recovery trackers, and governance documentation.
Support handover, OC/CC, and project close-out planning.
