New International Standard, I am on the IGPC (International Guild of Project Controls) management team editing/updating the newly created International Standard for Project Controls.

Project Controls is my Expertise: Planning, Scheduling CPM and CCPM, Estimating, Cost Management (EVA, EVM, ETC), Risk Analysis, Data Base Creation and Management, Contract Management, Procurement, Project Statistics Analysis and Reporting, and Team Management

Construction Superintendent/Manager with 20 years of proven successful experience and 10 years were a marathon: completed and closed-out 31 successive commercial and institutional projects; several overlapped. All of these projects required daily supervision of all crafts and quantity surveys for materials, change order management due to discoveries resulting in estimating, planning, scheduling.
