About

Planning that turns data into decisions.

A results-driven Project Planner and Project Controls Specialist with 15+ years delivering complex EPC, energy and infrastructure programmes, with portfolio values exceeding £300M.

An advanced Primavera P6 user — developing and controlling integrated L2–L4 schedules, establishing baselines, managing progress updates, monitoring critical and near-critical paths, and producing clear executive reporting.

Experienced in NEC4 ECC programme obligations, including preparing and submitting Clause 31 programmes for client acceptance and running Clause 32 revised programme cycles. Proven from tender development through delivery, translating planning data into practical decisions for senior leadership and clients.

Tools I built for the job.

Two analytics platforms for Primavera P6 programmes — one a web application that reads exports directly, one a Power BI programme-controls dashboard. Both grew out of the same question: can this programme actually be trusted?

P6 Schedule Analytics & Forensics

Drop in a Primavera .xer or .xml export and get the whole progress picture in seconds — no P6 licence needed. It recomputes the critical path on the file's own calendars, so it shows where the stored float disagrees with the logic.

  • Earned value & earned schedule — SPI(t), SV(t), forecast finish
  • DCMA 14-point assessment with drill-down to each offending activity
  • NEC4 clause 31 & 32 compliance checks for programme submission
  • Monte Carlo QSRA, windows delay analysis and trend across updates
  • XER repair — fix logic defects and write a corrected file, every change reviewed first

P6 Programme Controls Dashboard

A Power BI reporting suite built directly on Primavera P6 XML exports, covering the full programme-controls cycle — from the executive summary a client reads, down to the data-quality checks a planner runs before issuing an update.

  • Executive summary and programme overview for leadership packs
  • Critical path, float and logic analysis for each period's review
  • Baseline comparison, milestones and a rolling lookahead
  • Resources, cost and schedule health in one model

Career

The programme so far.

Three decades laid out the way I'd lay out any programme — as a Gantt. Each bar is a role, each diamond a qualification. Select a bar for the detail, or filter by sector.
