• Establish activity sequences, dependencies, milestones, durations, and resource requirements.
• Track actual progress against baseline schedules and identify schedule variances.
• Monitor critical-path activities and proactively identify potential delays and constraints.
• Work with manufacturing and engineering teams to understand capacity, labor, equipment, material, and technical constraints.
• Develop short-term look-ahead schedules and longer-term production plans.
• Coordinate material availability and supplier commitments with the production schedule.
• Identify schedule conflicts and work with stakeholders to develop mitigation and recovery plans.
• Maintain accurate schedule data and provide regular status updates to project and functional leadership.
