While the PMP serves as a guide, it is active and engaged project management that keeps our projects <br />on schedule and under budget. The following are the keys to our successful delivery: <br />Continual Budget Control <br />We use Deltek for all our accounting functions. Deltek has modules 'Project Review" and "I -Access' that <br />allow project managers to enter budgets for Mark Thomas and the subcontractors and track spending <br />in real-time. We use these modules to track earned value on our project and will be done for each task <br />order. <br />Our Work Breakdown Structure forms the base for our budget. As shown in the chart, we plan our <br />work using a resource loaded schedule, monitor the project progress, and track the planned budget vs. <br />actuals, and we report this to the City on a monthly basis. We review and report any variations along with <br />a corrective action plan. <br />20,000 <br />1A <br />10,000 <br />0 <br />5,000 <br />35% 50% 65% 95% 100% <br />TIME AND COMPLETION 'LEV- rot. <br />Proactive Schedule Management <br />Our project managers are taught to take a proactive approach for planning project activities, looking <br />ahead and drilling down to track tasks critical to achieving each milestone. Identifying the risks to the <br />project schedule and mitigating them by advancing early activities where possible without the risk <br />changes later in design. Our strategy for keeping projects on schedule is simple, track the action items, <br />communicate key milestones often and over communicate. <br />"Mark Thomas continues to show flexibility and adaptation with changing <br />project circumstances to ensure the project fulfills grant funding budget and <br />schedule. The team is well-rounded, responsive, and proactive to meet project <br />and design team needs." <br />- Sarah Aziz, Project Manager, Port of Los Angeles <br />ON -CALL ENG IN EER ING SERVICES MARKTHOMAS <br />City of Santa Ana Page 13 <br />
