Responsible for creating plans to coordinate all project elements and phases through an Integrated Master Schedule and Earned Value progress management system. Provided Board level status updates, briefings and forecasts.

Providing consultancy services to assist to BG with development and implementation of their global Integrated Planning and Scheduling (IAPS) initiative. IAPS was designed to provide a structured approach to planning CAP activities over multiple time horizons from 8 years to 2 weeks with the level of detail in the plan being increased as the plan matures.
