August 2011 – February 2012 (Strategies and Processes for Construction) Hemlock Silicon Corporation, Clarksville, Tn.
Construction Manager Owners Rep, DP Host and CLSI
I was hired because of my experience with a previous silicon plant construction, the contractor onsite was having issues with productivity and the quality of work, which was causing them to slip the schedule. I mitigated that with weekly progress review meetings, daily walk of the construction site with the superintendents, foreman and the QC personnel. What I found was that the craft were willing to do the work, but they were being held up by materials not arriving on time, or if they arrived they were not clean enough to use for fabrication and they would have to send it back for cleaning. To mitigate that we started inspecting all materials onsite and at the point of delivery, if it did not meet spec it was rejected and sent back to the vendor, if it was already in the field we would schedule it for cleaning before it was actually required, when we did that we were able to start meeting the schedule milestone. $250,000.00 saving)
