Develop comprehensive countdown plans and T-minus schedules for asset openings, including phases for trial operations and soft openings.
Track progress against established baselines, identify any schedule slippage or critical path impacts, and escalate risks to readiness milestones with proposed recovery options.
Produce detailed scheduling reports, dashboards, and lookaheads utilizing Power BI and Excel for OR leadership and governance forums.
Coordinate schedule inputs from various functional leads and consolidate updates on an agreed cadence.
Maintain rigorous schedule change control, baseline management, and thorough documentation of all assumptions and dependencies.
Support workforce ramp-up planning by aligning recruitment, onboarding, and training timelines with operational need dates.
