What was at stake.
The health system planned four centers in eighteen months with a single design-builder. Each site had different permitting and utility timelines, and leadership had no way to compare progress across sites or see which opening was at risk.
What we did.
Beck Franklin's role: program scheduling and reporting. We advise and measure; the contractor builds.
One template
We built a P6 template with a standard WBS, logic library and milestones that every site schedule started from.
Site-specific risk
Permitting, utility and equipment risks were added per site, so the template never hid local conditions.
Program report
A monthly program report compared all four sites on the same milestones, float and percent complete.
Lessons carried forward
Durations and sequencing from each finished site were fed into the template for the next one.
What the team delivered.
When every site reports the same way, a problem at one shows up before it repeats at the next.
