What is at stake.
The owner's production plan depends on equipment install starting in a building that does not yet exist. Process equipment, clean dry rooms and utility capacity all have long lead times, and the EPCM team had no baseline that tied them together.
What we are doing.
Beck Franklin's role: baseline development and p6. We advise and measure; the contractor builds.
Baseline from the end
We built the baseline backward from first production, through equipment install, dry room certification and utility energization.
Equipment lead times
Every major equipment package has a procurement chain with factory acceptance test and shipping.
Utility dates
Power and water connection dates are tied to the utility's own schedule and reviewed monthly.
P6 standards
WBS, activity codes and calendars are set so the contractor schedules roll into the master.
Where it stands.
A production date is only as good as the equipment chain behind it. We built that chain first.
Lead scheduler, Beck Franklin
