The Thomas Consulting Group either reviews or develops CPM schedules for a wide variety of projects, depending on the needs of the client.

The Thomas Consulting Group staff regularly prepare and update master schedules for large or complex construction projects. The master schedule is in a critical-path-method (CPM) format and portrays summary level activities for each phase of the project, such as preliminary design, final design, bidding/award, construction, and start up.  Additional detail can be added as the project is further developed and executed.  In the development of schedules, The Thomas Consulting Group often uses facilitated workshops, also known as full-wall schedule sessions, to promote the involvement of all project stakeholders in this important activity.

The Thomas Consulting Group often reviews contractor’s CPM schedule submittals on behalf of owners, architects, and engineers to determine whether the schedule is reasonable and complies with the contract times and mandated sequences.  As the project proceeds, The Thomas Consulting Group reviews updates and revisions of schedules to confirm that actual performance is reported correctly and that the basis for future schedule performance makes sense.
