Editor's Notes
- #7: -Baseline should be submitted within 7 days of NTP. Do not accept negative float in schedule. Make contract modification for earlier completion dates than required contract completion. -Scheduler be it in house or a consultant should be qualified to utilize the software. Qualifications should be submitted and approved by agency. Employee skilled in CPM network utilizing software for CPM such as P3 or P6. -Cost loaded and resource loaded by crews. Review this carefully for reasonable plan.
- #9: Maintain controlled list of milestones
- #10: Two choices – Include utility work in your master schedule or… If there is only one contractor to manage – include interface points to their schedule. Do not assume utility contractor can work around the contractor. This is difficult to coordinate in urban environments with limited space. Only through coordination meetings and including utility work in the schedule can you manage the interfaces.
