• Integrate schedule, cost, and scope data across engineering, installation, commissioning, and system acceptance activities.
• Collaborate with radar manufacturers, engineering leads, site teams, subcontractors, and FAA stakeholders to gather planning inputs and define task dependencies.
• Utilize project control and scheduling tools (e.g., Primavera P6, Microsoft Project) to identify critical paths, track progress, and monitor performance against baselines.
