**** ***** ******* **. ***** Rouge, La. 70816 - Phone: 225-***-**** - E-mail: ac02kk@r.postjobfree.com Chicago Bridge & Iron (CBI) 6/15/15 To Present

Mr. Cohoon was presented with the challenge of a lay-off through no fault of his own in April of 2015. His job search afforded him the opportunity to be associated with CBI in the Baton Rouge office location in June of 2015, providing expert scheduling and claims analysis to the Environmental and Infrastructure Division. His duties include Planning, Schedule development, updating, reporting of variances to project baselines, cost and resource loading of P6 schedules, Change Management, forensic schedule analysis and claims preparation assistance. The Lemoine Company 7/7/14 To 4/15/15 – Director of Corporate Scheduling Mr. Cohoon formally retired from the Turner Construction Company in June of 2014 to accept the position of Director of Cor- porateScheduling at The LemoineCompany. His duties included the thorough reviewof all current corporate scheduling practic- es as well as his professional evaluation of the effectiveness and compliance of their schedules with AACEI &PMI “Best Practic- es” aswell as, the risk levels (or schedule “health”) of all active Project schedules within the Company. He was also chargedwith the review, evaluation and revision of the Corporate Construction Policies Manual sections related to their scheduling proce- dures. In addition to his primary duties of developing the Scheduling Department, re-structuring the Company’s scheduling pro- cesses and procedures and providing oversight management of the Company’s Scheduling Engineer, his secondary duties in- cluded the development and implementation of a formal instructor-led training program for theCompany’sProject Managers and Superintendents. The purpose of the training program is to assure that the industry’s “Best Practice” procedures are learned by the main streampractitioners within the Company to insure that the risk levels of their schedules are reduced as much as possi- bleandthat thequalityandpurposeof theProject schedulesareof thehighestqualitypossible.ThetrainingprogramthatMr. Cohoon developed was mixed with theory, actual Project applications and P6 software training. Due to the number of users vs the number of application licenses, two training manuals had to be developed. One was created for the Superintendents using the Oracle P6 Web Access module and a separate one made for the Project Managers using the P6 Project Manager module. Both programs were developed to specifically target deficiencies discovered during his evaluation process.
