The challenge

What was at stake.

Steel was late, and the fuel island needed a new permit. The schedule showed the finish two months after the lease end, which would have left city vehicles with nowhere to go.

Our role

What we did.

Beck Franklin's role: schedule recovery. We advise and measure; the contractor builds.

01

Lease date first

We set the lease end as the target and identified the minimum the city needed to move in.

02

Partial occupancy

Fleet parking, fueling and the maintenance bays were scheduled to finish first, ahead of offices.

03

Permit tracking

The fuel island permit was tracked weekly with the agency.

04

Move plan

The city's move was scheduled with the contractor's finish, so crews and vehicles moved in stages.

The city did not need every room finished. It needed the yard. The recovery plan put that first.
