Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Dear Ruel,

Very chanllenging project, congradulations.

The problems with operational site is that you have to adhere to the Operator’s rules and conditions. So the constraints are very much real and very much affecting your works.

The basics for making a schedule does not change. The scope is known in your BOQs, drawings and specifications. The issue here is the zoning and planning that is going to take place to complete the works.

So I suggest that you hold a few meetings (say 3) within 1 week with your team, and especially the operator, security, quality control, and any other existing entity at the Lab that might affect your Schedule, and start discussing the zone and what you are going to do. Sketch up some WBS during the meeting, then after few meeting, send it to the Engineer for Approval.

Once your WBS and method statements are approved, you can start the Scheduling as usual.

About the zero noize and zero dust. Either you keep it to an acceptable minimum or you submit a quality procedure to ensure that and get it approved by your Engineer.

With kind regards,

Samer
