Thirteen years of formal education and experience ranging from USMC to on-hands industrial exposure at Sasol Mega Project, lends me to any employer as a Senior Planner Scheduler / Project Engineer. After obtaining my Primavera (P6)(version 8.3.2), certification from Oracle University, I applied my knowledge of strategic analysis and risk management in the activity placement and durations, along the critical paths to meet cost, budget, and milestone alignment.  All emphasis of the schedule were consistent with the client (Fluor) which allotted the opportunity to field verify all work being completed.  I developed construction schedules to support the work of the estimating group.  I will obtain the required knowledge of the work being performed as well as the logic and durations from preliminary estimate information. Along with this, I will also prepare project cost estimates for the different number of trades, configure the quantity take-offs from the available documents, and enter those into the standardized database. The work will be organized to meet the companies’ and clients’ expected structure. I have extensive knowledge in originating, implementing, and managing complex projects. I’m able to derive at strategies for the method of executing work, such as developing larger packages to be handled as projects where savings can be realized from the use of value-improving practices. I will prepare medium and long range plans to support efficient field results.  This supports me closely working with unit personnel and provide feedback on the quality and prioritize the notifications which maintenance and or turnarounds receive. I use the information received from unit personnel, and develop planning packages to an appropriate level of detail for the task summary and detailed schedules, including appropriate critical path logic, activity durations and resource loading from either estimates created by colleagues or self-performed. These may be to support the estimating group or to support an operating project on an as needed basis. I’m able to do take-off elements of the work accurately and assign them to the appropriate items in the estimate database. I possess a strong attention to detail and solicit subcontract and vendor pricing. Organize the schedule or estimate in a manner required to meet the needs of the project. My capabilities allow me to maintain the essence of a team-oriented objective. Evidence of my critical thinking was the ability to raise production levels from a .38 to a 1.17 on a specific performance (Firewater Pond) of the Mega Project. Other evidence is being able to raise a combat readiness percentage from 40% to 95% in a timely fashion between conflicts which resulted in a Presidential Unit Citation. I strongly believe in the implementation of securing the right personnel to obtain company goals and aspirations, while maintaining cost, augmenting production levels, and pledging safety as a non-negotiable.

Single Channel Ground Airborne Radio System 2538A

January 2004 to Present

 

SINCGARS is a new family of VHF-FM combat net radios which provides the primary means of command and control for Infantry, Armor and Artillery Units. SINCGARS is designed on a modular basis to achieve maximum commonality among the various ground and airborne system configurations. A common Receiver Transmitter (RT) is used in the manpack and all vehicular configurations. SINCGARS family of radios has the capability to transmit and receive voice, tactical data and record traffic messages and is consistent with NATO interoperability requirements. The system operates on any of the 2320 channels between 30-88 megahertz and is designed to survive in a nuclear environment. COMSEC for the basic radio is provided by use of the VINSON device. An Integrated COMSEC (ICOM) version of the SINCGARS is currently in production. SINCGARS is operable in a hostile environment through use of Electronic Counter Countermeasure (ECCM). SINCGARS replaces the current standard manpack and vehicular radios, AN/PRC-77 and AN/VRC-12 family, respectively. An airborne version of the SINCGARS radio is in production and will replace the currently standard aircraft radios, AN/ARC-114 and AN/ARC-131.  The Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS) provides commanders with a highly reliable, secure, easily maintained Combat Net Radio (CNR) that has both voice and data handling capability in support of command and control operations. SINCGARS, with the Internet Controller, provides the communications link for Task Force XXI. SINCGARS configurations include manpack, vehicular (both low and high power), and airborne models. Communications Security (COMSEC) is integrated in currently produced versions of the ground and the airborne radios, and the System Improvement Program (SIP) models providing upgrades to enhance operational capability.
