Programme setup and baselines
Programme structure, WBS alignment and baseline schedules built from production rates and contractual milestones, checked before sign-off.
Project Planning
Senior planners embedded on capital projects: programme setup, baseline development and schedule assurance before float and commercial pressure take over. Owner-side and contractor-side, Brisbane-based and nationally delivered.
Planning work on live capital projects
We join during setup or re-baseline, not to produce a document pack, but to leave a plan the project can run on and leadership can defend in front of a board, client or auditor.
Programme structure
WBS, stage gates and milestones tied to contractual obligations and how work will actually be sequenced on site.
Baseline development and review
Schedules built from production rates and interface logic, then checked independently before the baseline is locked.
Sponsor alignment
Reporting cadence, milestone definitions and governance agreed while the programme is still being shaped, not after the first slippage.
What we take on
Engagements range from a focused baseline review to a planner embedded for the programme setup phase.
Schedule assurance
Independent review of logic, durations and interfaces, with findings leadership can act on before the baseline is locked.
Stakeholder reporting frameworks
Reporting cadences, milestone definitions and governance rhythms that keep sponsors, clients and delivery leads aligned.
Stage gates and milestones
Gate criteria and milestone packs structured for steering committees and contractual reporting.
Planning standards and handover
Planning standards, look-ahead templates and handover documentation so the in-house team can sustain the discipline after we exit.
Re-baseline and recovery planning
When the existing plan has drifted, we rebuild the baseline and recovery position with logic and records that survive contractor or client review.
Sectors
Where we do this work
The planning discipline is the same; the interfaces and assurance expectations change by sector.
Infrastructure
Transport, utilities and built-environment programmes where interfaces and owner-side assurance drive baseline discipline.
View sectorEnergy
Power generation, networks and renewables where milestone credibility and P6 governance carry commercial and safety weight.
View sectorResources
Oil, gas and commodities projects where programme setup and contemporaneous records underpin time and entitlement positions.
