The AECOM Simandou Project is comprised of two principle components: A 650 km-long Trans-Guinean railway to transport iron ore from the mine to the coast. Rio Tinto (RTIO) contracted the engineering services to Fluor as an EPCM contract with AECOM as a sub-consultant. AECOM is providing the engineering services for the rail and port components which are expected to account for half of the Project’s total cost. The Simandou Project will be the largest integrated iron ore mine and infrastructure Project ever developed in Africa. I work with AECOM Scheduling Team to Update a Master schedule of Deliverables and services which are include: 1. Monthly Level Schedule Update: the Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 Project Schedules will be updated and issued monthly, and impact of the changes for that reporting period. 2. “3-week look-ahead schedule” will be reviewed in the Project Weekly Status meeting. And weekly progress summaries. 3. Develop a Level 4 Schedule for the Simandou Project life cycles as follows: Stage 1 – Conceptual and Order of Magnitude, Stage 2 – Preliminary Engineering Assessment (PEA) Stage 3 – Derivable of Definitive Engineering (DE) Stage 4 – Derivable of Details Design (DD) Stage 5 – Construction (with testing and commissioning and 1st year Operation)
