About This Role
About the Role
The Planning Manager is responsible for developing, monitoring, and optimizing the master project schedule.
You will oversee the critical path, ensuring that civil works (substructure and superstructure) progress in a lean, efficient sequence to meet delivery milestones while managing resource constraints unique to vertical construction.
Responsibilities
- **Master Schedule Development:**
- Create and maintain the Baseline Schedule using Primavera P6 or MS Project, focusing on the cyclic nature of high-rise construction (e.g., floor-to-floor cycle times).
- **Vertical Logistics Planning:**
- Coordinate the "vertical factory" flow—optimizing the use of tower cranes, hoists, and concrete pumps to prevent bottlenecks.
- **Civil Sequence Optimization:**
- Manage the transition from deep foundations and basements to the typical floor cycles, ensuring formwork systems (slipform or jumpform) are utilized to their maximum potential.
- **Progress Monitoring & Reporting:**
- Perform Earned Value Management (EVM) to track performance.
- Prepare "S-Curves" and Manpower Histograms.
- Analyze Productivity Rates for rebar fixing, shuttering, and concrete pouring.
- **Delay Analysis & Mitigation:**
- Identify potential delays early.
- Develop "Catch-up" plans and perform Forensic Delay Analysis if Extension of Time (EOT) claims are required.
- **Subcontractor Coordination:**
- Align the schedules of MEP and finishing subcontractors with the main civil structural milestones to avoid "stand-by" time.
Qualifications
- Expert level in Primavera P6 (Standard for High-Rise) and MS Project.
- Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering or Construction Management.
- 15+ years in civil planning, with at least 10 years specifically on Towers/High-Rise (G+40 minimum).
- Deep understanding of Cycle Time Analysis and Line of Balance (LOB) scheduling.
