Hi Mike,



FEED = Front end engineering design



OR Basic Engineering.



It is not exactly the same in terms of the deliverables to be issued as part of the FEED or basic engineering.

Gary ,



Fully agree with you regarding the link to how good the systems in house are for timesheet, financial and archiving.



You have added the function of Doc. Controller which I would replace with change management.

The new systems for document control become so sophisticated and time consuming.



I would say: for a FEED with man-hours less the 100 K, one person is enough to manage the following: schedule, progress measure, cost control and change management.

Hi Carmen,



When I’ve worked on FEED or other home-office projects, the PC team tends to be 1 scheduler / progress measurer (me), 1 cost control/accountant and 1 Doc controller.



This team then runs all PC for all projects in the office.



I’d estimate total of, say, 100,000 man-hours of projects could be handled in this way. So maybe 1/3 of that for a single person to handle all 3 roles.



Obviously it very much depends on how good/automated your systems are for timesheets, financial reporting, archiving, etc

Regards,



Gary
