Scheduling is an important factor for projects of all types and sizes, as mistakes associated with timing, material deliveries and processes can be very costly.
According to a study published by Angotti Engineering of CA, three of the top project schedule risk factors include:
- Optimistic Scheduling - "tell them what they want to hear" without regard to real and practical limitations.
- Piling on People – All will go well if we throw people at the project, especially at crisis points.
- Refusing to anticipate learning curves when new people, tools or processes are introduced.
We're pleased to announce that we have been selected to perform a renovation and systems upgrade project by the US Navy.
This fast-track initiative will involve interior renovations and HVAC-system updating in the officer’s
club building at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard.
The scope-of-work will include new ceilings and
walls, electrical and architectural upgrades, interior finish work, and the installation of a dormer on
the building’s slate roof to accommodate the new HVAC unit. The new system will be more energy
efficient, and will also have sufficient capacity to properly heat and cool the entire facility.
