Construction Scheduling Done Right

Tailored to Your Project, Your Team & Your Software

The CPM baseline schedule is one of the most important documents on a construction project. We will ensure the project plan is translated into an effective communication tool to be understood and used by the entire project team; from the Owner, Architect, General Contractor and Sub-Contractors.

Baseline Consulting believes the most effective strategy to creating a baseline schedule is as a team. The baseline schedule is a collaborative effort with input from project management, project field staff and the input from the appropriate subcontractors.

If Properly Set Up a Schedule Will:

1. Provide ongoing communication of the detailed construction plan to the entire project team
2. Provide a graphical resource and cost model allowing the team to plan and maximize the efficiency of the project’s valuable resources
3. Be an accurate way to track the ongoing progress of a project to constantly monitor if the project is meeting contractual milestones
4. Be a powerful tool to portray and substantiate project delays
5. Provide the ability to create real time, “what-if scenarios� to maximize efficiency and minimize project construction time
6. Create a complete historical record of the construction process and delays that occurred for use in delay claims or

Whether creating a baseline schedule for a large $400,000,000 construction project, or a small $200,000 TI (tenant improvement), Baseline Consulting will ensure the best quality CMP Schedule is created for your project. Simply stated, whether you are looking at a large complex project, or a less complex smaller project Baseline Consulting can help you.

Project Schedule Periodic Updates and Maintenance

Once project construction has commenced, the next critical step in the scheduling and planning process is updating and maintaining the project schedule. As the popular saying goes, “Construction is an industry of change� and that applies to the project schedule. It is critical that the schedule be constantly updated and modified to reflect the ongoing changes in the construction process.

Baseline Consulting’s proprietary system of schedule updates is the most highly advanced and accurate means of tracking a project sequence of construction you will find on the market today.

Baseline Consulting will work hand in hand with project field staff, walk the project and attend appropriate meetings to ensure the schedule is updated accurately and reflects the current construction plan. As every project is different, the frequency of the updates is varied from project to project.

Strategic Project Planning for a Great Beginning

In today’s fast pasted and complicated construction industry, it is no longer sufficient to plan a project using “old school� planning techniques. The days of a napkin and a handshake are gone. With timelines and budgets being pushed to the maximum, more sophisticated planning tools are required.

The strategic project planning process is the first critical step in insuring a smooth and successful project. The strategic planning process allows the construction team to identify their needs and generally involve the following steps

1. A complete review of all project documents and appropriate contract requirements
2. In house project strategy session to determine the most efficient sequence to build a project
3. Full assessment of the project’s: opportunities, threats, strengths and weaknesses
4. Creating a full action plan and assigned tasks to responsible parties

Whether the project is in the schematic design phase or construction has already commenced, Baseline Consulting can put together a plan that will minimize duration of construction allowing for maximum profit for the entire project team.
