David is currently working in the UK. He has a professional, pragmatic and structured approach to Planning complex programmes that has evolved over a 30 year period and his expertise has been developed within and applied to many Industrial and Commercial environments including Aerospace, Process Controls, IT, Automotive, Defence, Power Industry as well as others.

Supported by a strong System Engineering, Programme Management and Change Management background and experiences at all stages of implementation have permitted the development of a multi faceted approach to the challenges of optimising Programme Planning deployment and maintenance. The approach followed has been to apply Structured Programme Planning techniques using such tools as P6, Suretrak and Project, then applying active Risk Management, formal Gate Review processes and the use of planned metrics, including Earned Value, to assess the real time status of Programme implementation.

David’s particular interest is the promotion of predictive scheduling techniques to facilitate early warning of threats and to ensure dependencies are aligned prior to activity execution.
