Schedulers and cost engineers inside your team.

Embedded project controls staff who work in your systems, your meetings and your reporting cycle. Planners, schedulers and cost engineers who already know P6, earned value and change control, and contribute from the first update.

Controls gaps show at the update.

01

The update is late again

One scheduler covering three projects means each gets updated thinly, or late.

02

Hiring takes too long

A permanent hire for a two-year peak can take longer to recruit than the peak lasts.

03

A seat filled, not covered

Contract staff who are learning P6 logic on your project, at your expense.

What Beck Franklin does

How we embed.

  1. 01

    Match the role to the gap

    Scheduler, cost engineer, controls lead or document control, scoped to the work that actually needs covering.

  2. 02

    Work in your systems

    Your P6 database, your cost system and your reporting templates, following your procedures.

  3. 03

    Senior review behind them

    Embedded staff have Beck Franklin senior review on difficult updates, analyses and change evaluations.

  4. 04

    Leave the system better

    Procedures, templates and fixes documented, so your team keeps them when the assignment ends.

  5. 05

    Flex with the phase

    Hours scale with the project, so you are not paying for peak staffing during closeout.

What you walk away with.

Scoped to your project. Native files and plain-English outputs that stay yours when we leave.

Timing

When to call us.

The earlier we see the schedule, the more options you keep.

01

A workload peak is coming

Several projects reach construction at the same time.

02

A key person left

A scheduler or cost lead resigned in the middle of a project.

03

A dedicated scheduler is required

The contract names a full-time scheduler you do not have on staff.

04

Your people want coaching

You want staff who teach your team as they work beside them.

Straight answers to fair questions.

Can embedded staff work remotely?

Yes. Many controls roles work well remotely with regular site visits. We agree the split before we start.

How quickly can someone start?

It depends on the role and the systems access needed. We confirm a start date when we scope the request.

Whose procedures do they follow?

Yours. Where a procedure is missing, we propose one and you approve it.

What happens when the assignment ends?

You receive a handover file with procedures, files and open items, so nothing walks out the door.
