Dakota Gasification Project

Work Performed:

This project was broken down into multiple phases on a multi-year contract.

The first phase and immediate priority, was staffing a P6 Scheduling expert for the upcoming plant outage.  All resources and attention would be focused on the outage.   

Our Teams role was to supply a seasoned P6 Scheduler and Primavera Consultant to assist with support planning and efforts for the scheduled outage, our team was responsible for maintaining the schedule throughout outage and utilize this first hand experience to provide lessons learned for the subsequent phases.  

The second phase was to begin immediately following the conclusion of the outage.

The Primavera Consultants team’s first
step was an assessment and analysis of the clients process to identify the following:

• Current Procedures & Best Practices
• Develop a Training Plan
• Identify Technical Issues
  
  • Technical Infrastructure
  • Asset Management Suite 
• Best Practices & Procedure Reporting
• Capture Earned Value Management
  Requirements
• Review Project Control Communications
• Identify gaps, present improvement, measure adoption & change management

The third phase was roll-out.

The process provided a long term solution and allowed for a measured approach to future
success. This staged approach allowed the project to move forward in a measured and successful manner. 

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

As a Primavera Expert and Consultant, I recommend you review the sample project materials located on the right hand side of this page. Reviewing these project artifacts will provide you with valuable insight on things you should consider when self-performing your own P6 upgrade or migration. If after reviewing these project materials, you have any questions or would like to hire one of our Primavera P6 Scheduler for your project, please feel free to contact us below. Primavera P6 is a sophisticated tool and can be very beneficial for your project that’s why Owners require it, so make sure you take full advantage of its capabilities

Primavera P6 is a critical tool for effective project scheduling. It allows you to create and track schedules, assign resources, and measure progress among many other benefits.  However, Primavera P6 is a complex software, and it can be difficult to create an accurate schedule without the help of a Primavera expert. A Primavera Consultant can help you create a schedule that is contractually compliant and will meet your project objectives. In addition, a Primavera consultant can provide valuable insight into the scheduling process and help you identify potential risks. If you are considering self-performing your own CPM Project Schedule, please review some of our example Enterprise Structures, WBS and other components necessary for a compliant P6 Schedule
