Planning Engineer

Job Accountability: Develop, baseline, and maintain detailed baseline master schedules using Primavera P6 in alignment with Critical Path Method (CPM) principles and Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) standards. Perform resource loading, progress updates, physical status tracking, and generate baseline project S-curves for time and cost monitoring. Calculate Earned Value Management (EVM) key performance metrics, specifically Schedule Performance Index (SPI) and Cost Performance Index (CPI), to evaluate project health. Calculate and monitor labor productivity, labor unit man-hour requirements, and related workforce efficiency metrics across site activities. Perform delay analysis (EOT claims / schedule variance identification), highlight critical path disruptions early, and recommend corrective mitigation plans to project management. Track daily, weekly, and monthly site progress, identify operational schedule risks, and prepare analytical progress reports using advanced MS Excel tools (pivot tables, formulas, interactive charts). Coordinate closely with site execution teams, subcontractors, MEP engineers, and project management to ensure real-time alignment with baseline deadlines. Education: Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related engineering field. Specific areas of expertise: Primavera P6 scheduling, Critical Path Method (CPM), Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) development, Earned Value Management (EVM), resource loading, labor man-hour productivity calculations, and delay analysis techniques.
