EPC provides project controls across the following services.
- Project Planning
- Schedule Development
- Schedule Oversight and Reporting
- Schedule Analysis
- Cost Estimating
- Cost Analysis
- Value Engineering
- Budget Development and Forecasting
These are essential to keep projects on budget and on time. They enable key stakeholders to identify risks early, before they become expensive or time-consuming. Project controls also give leadership the data they need to set true expectations and plan with confidence.
It’s our core belief the most successful project managers use controls to monitor time and cost expenditures and compare them to project lifecycle forecasts. They also rely on them to coordinate execution through each project stage.
Our team uses concise and accurate dashboards to report on a project’s status, and project trends. This includes:
- Planning: development of performance (cost, schedule, productivity, etc.) baselines
- Measurement: forecasting, and tracking of project metrics
- Comparison: detecting and measuring variances between the initial plan and current project performance
- Recommendations: determining appropriate corrective or improvement actions
The benefits of project controls are vast and when put in place and used correctly, they contribute to increased efficiency, a decrease in delays and accurate cost management.
