WORK EXPERIENCE

April 2006 to Shaw Inc. Nuclear Division, Project Controls Manager/Assistant Project Manager

June 2009 Developed, integrated and analyzed the engineering/design schedule deliverables to

support the AREVA Eagle Rock Enrichment Facility Project schedule to support the COLA

submittal to the NRC. The schedule tool of choice for this effort was agreed to be

Primavera Project Planner P6. Both the client and design responsible party agreed that by

implementing P6 the project could be more expediently monitored by all parties in order to

meet the deliverables to the NRC. The schedule proved successful and detailed design and

engineering was initiated in P6. These were for the sections that applied for

engineering/design in the Environmental Report (ER), Safety Analysis Report (SAR) and

the Integrated Safety Analysis Report (ISA). Supported each discipline weekly for updates

and reporting to the Client once the integration of all parties was completed. Weekly

reports included schedule information from Primavera as well as written reports by

discipline, any outstanding correspondence for clarification of questions and status of

Project Management in the Engineering Group. Once the COLA information was compiled

and submitted the concerted effort to develop the engineering and design schedule

execution was developed, released for review, approved and incorporated into the integrated

schedule with the AREVA activities.

Shaw - Stone & Webster Inc. Nuclear Division, Project Controls Engineer

Developed the initial engineering and design schedule for the LES Nuclear Enrichment

Facility utilizing Primavera System tools. The schedule included all deliverables to support

construction such as specifications, drawings, equipment lists, submittals to licensing and

the NRC, building completion of engineering/design and support the plant on line date and

was detailed further as the project progressed. The schedule was developed,

executed and monitored initially with Primavera Project Planner version P5. After the

initial development a concerted effort was extended by all parties to convert the integrated

plan into P6 and move forward from that point. The P6 schedule was executed successfully

to the completion of the project. Worked closely with the owners scheduler so that impacts

were mitigated early in the process to avoid potential slips. Once the construction

management was awarded the focus remained the same however, an Integrated Project

Schedule (IPS) was planned and executed by the construction management team. Monthly

meetings support and weekly updates were provided for integration and analysis of the IPS

to review the interdependencies and logic flow compared to the actual construction progress

on site against the plan for the Facility on line date.
