Work Experience:

2014 to 2015 : Complete Technical Services

Title: Planner / Scheduler

Duties: Building and maintaining project schedules in P6, using historical data and drawings. Building and maintaining project curves and reports used to update and status the projects.

2012 to 2014 : Jacobs Engineering, Houston Texas

Title: Capital Projects Scheduler

Duties: Building and maintaining project schedules in P6, using data from the project planner.

Building and maintaining the project curves and reports used to update and status the projects.

2000 to 2012 : Infinity Construction Services,  Clute Texas

 Title:  Sr. Project Controls Specialist
 Duties: My position involved reviewing blueprints, interfacing with project superintendents,
 estimators and sub contract labor to gather information needed to produce computer generated
 critical path, resource loaded, pdm schedules for hard dollar and cost plus projects, using
 primavera software. After completing the schedule I was responsible for tracking the progress
 of the project through the corporate standard reports. These reports would include a schedule
 synopsis, summary schedules, s-curves, planned vs earned report & 3 week look ahead. I compare
 the target schedule to the current schedule to determine the schedule performance indicator
 (SPI). I also compare the actual man hours to the earned manhours to determine the cost
 performance indicator (CPI). Information to status the schedule is gathered from the field
 crews.                              
 I developed and documented a cost control process that I have been using in a world class
 ethylene facility at a local refining company. I used the process to create budgets, track
 cost and project final cost for three turnarounds totaling 50 mil.
 My latest assignment was lead scheduler on a 200 mil maintenance/capital project shut down at
 a large local petro/chemical refinery.

1992 to 2000: Equistar Chemical, Laporte Texas

Title: Maintenance / Turnaround Planner

Duties: As a t/a planner I was responsible to review each maintenance job respective to my
 area. I would determine the most cost effective repair procedure by using all available
 resources. This would involve using the existing plant maintenance file, talking to
 knowledgeable individuals and personal past experience. I would record the procedures into
 the plant CMMS system. I would then acquire materials necessary to complete the job. I would
 prepare the bid proposal, and request a bid meeting through the purchasing department. I would
 also host and direct the bid meeting with vendors associated with my work. I would write all
 labor requisitions necessary for the third party labor. I would create the logic diagrams to
 represent the chronological order of the work. This information was forwarded to a scheduling
 group who produced the pdm schedule. Once the t/a was in progress I was responsible to gather
 the status information used to chart the progress of the outage.
 As a maintenance planner my duties were very similar to the t/a planning except the jobs were
 more of a daily nature. 
 As a maintenance co-ordinator my duties were to act as the primary contact between the
 maintenance department and the production department to put together the daily maintenance
 schedules for unit I was assigned to. 
 Accomplishments:
 I was directly involved in planning and executing three large turnarounds.
