Frequently Asked Questions

01 My company aims to implement a fully integrated Project Controls system and environment.

Based on an evaluation of your firm's current circumstances, we can assist in establishing a comprehensive Project Controls system and environment for your implementation.

This transformation will encompass Schedule Management, Cost Estimation and Control, Change Management, Document Control, Performance EVM as well as Risk Management.

02 My project requires a schedule to support the bidding process.

Are you currently preparing the required documents for project bidding and need a Project Schedule? We can assist in developing a comprehensive Project Schedule for your submission.

My project already has a Project Baseline Schedule used for Bidding. We now need to expand and finalize a comprehensive Baseline Master Schedule.

Leveraging the existing initial project bidding schedule and converting it into an expanded, detailed Project Baseline Schedule (Levels I - V) can lead to significant cost savings.

In alignment with your well defined Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), we can help develop a more detailed Project Schedule that accurately reflects project tasks.

04 My project already has a developed Project Baseline Schedule. We require your remote support to perform cyclical updates.

Have you already started developing a Project Schedule? We can assist in updating your schedule on a bi-weekly or monthly basis, tailored to your project requirements.

Our project requires resource loading a schedule to measure Earned Value, and we are encountering challenges.

Traditionally, Earned Value Analysis (EVA) has relied on a 'top-down' approach. However, Modern Earned Value Management (EVM) requires a resource-loaded schedule to calculate the Schedule Performance Index (SPI) with greater accuracy.

This approach ensures that Earned Value (EV) and Planned Value (PV) are supported by detailed and sophisticated project schedules. We can assist in resource-loading every project schedule, enabling accurate manpower forecasting and more precise schedule performance metrics.

06 We have an existing schedule in MS Project that needs to be converted to Primavera P6.

Submitting a project schedule in Primavera P6 while your bidding documents are in Microsoft Project can be challenging. Our service saves you both time and cost, eliminating the need to hire a full-time Primavera P6 scheduler.

Simply, provide us with your completed MS Project file, and one of our technical consultants will migrate the schedule data accurately to Primavera P6. We will handle all necessary validation and adjustments to ensure a seamless transition between the two systems.

We need to merge several project schedules within our program into one unified master schedule.

If you have multiple projects that need to be consolidated at the Program or Portfolio level, we can assist in merging the schedules.

08 We have an internal project schedule and want to assess its health to ensure proper management and optimal efficiency.

Are you currently managing a Project Schedule internally and want to maximize its cost-effectiveness? By adopting internationally recognized best practices, we can help keep your Project Schedule in its healthiest form.

Proper schedule management not only supports accurate progress reporting but also expedites project execution by reflecting realistic, up-to-date progress and remaining durations.

09 Is it necessary to purchase Primavera P6 software in order to attend the training?

We can supply a laptop with Oracle Primavera P6 installed, if required.

10 May I request in-person, individualized training for Primavera P6?

Yes, Primavera P6 training sessions are available in person. Training can be conducted at our corporate office in Vancouver, BC, Canada, or we can travel to your office or project site if required.
