Colorado Department of Nati tesources <br />' Drought Mitigation and Response Plan Revision <br />E. Management Summary <br />Management Summary <br />Describe the administrative approach and project management techniques employed during the <br />contract to ensure the coordination and timeliness of the work. <br />Ability to Complete Projects on Schedule <br />The AMEC team understands that one of the concerns in selecting a consultant is to <br />ensure that the project can be completed in a timely manner. The key staff assigned to <br />this project will have sufficient time available to accomplish the project tasks within the <br />project schedule, based on our existing and forecast workload. <br />AMEC finds that regularly scheduled conference calls held every two weeks with our <br />clients helps to keep projects on schedule and progressing forward. AMEC uses <br />Primavera P3 or Microsoft Project, depending upon the complexity of the project, as its <br />scheduling tool throughout all project stages from initial planning through completion. <br />These tools allow AMEC project managers to analyze schedules for each project - <br />specific work element, anticipate cost and schedule challenges and evaluate major <br />milestones to ensure that decisions are made in a timely manner. <br />Ability to Complete Projects on Budget <br />Compliance with established project schedules and budgets are a result of effective <br />project planning and experienced execution and management. AMEC establishes the <br />baseline project schedule and budget with input from the client, key team members and <br />other stakeholders. Other tools include the development of project management plans <br />and detailed work breakdown structures. <br />AMEC has a proven project controls system for managing complex engineering <br />projects. Our systems combine effective management tools, processes and procedures <br />to provide the flexibility to satisfy critical project requirements and quickly respond to <br />changing priorities. AMEC uses BST@) cost accounting system for project cost tracking <br />and control. The BSTO system includes a wide range of possible queries to produce on- <br />line, real -time reports to track and manage individual projects and programs. AMEC's <br />BSTO system is web -based and thus is available to all AMEC staff from any internet- <br />compatible location. The BST@) system is updated on a daily basis and is used to <br />develop a Cost Report/Forecast of the costs expended to date and forecasted future <br />costs, all totaled and compared against the authorized project budget. <br />ameO <br />
