A Project Controls Lead who helps companies, project managers, and engineering managers to implement major capital projects on time, on schedule, and under budget. I have an MBA in Project Management and deep knowledge of cost analysis, controls, reporting processes, and P6 scheduling.I also have more than 20 years of success managing the tracking, budgeting, and implementation of complex, widely dispersed projects and teams across multiple industries.Currently, as Project Controls Specialist for Equitrans Midstream, I schedule and track 100+ concurrent oil and gas pipeline capital projects ranging from $5M to $30M each.Previously, as Project Controls Lead and Senior Cost Engineer for Albemarle Corporation, I tracked 100+ simultaneous US Lithium capital projects ranging from $50K - $4M each.As Project Controls Specialist for GE FieldCore, I tracked project costs, created and tracked P6 schedules, related employee classifications, training, and performance for nuclear, gas, and steam power plant outages.While managing a $100M portfolio of accounts as a Financial Analyst and Planning Manager for DuPont, I reduced costs, developed leaner manufacturing processes, oversaw $8M in capital projects, and consistently reduced overall fixed cost by $1M/year.I thrive on analytics, problem solving, and planning out a project forecast from a set of premises. I enjoy tracking and monitoring project cost and schedules, forecasting cost trends vs. budgets, identifying risk, and offering solutions to help steer the project.Colleagues say I ‘live in the weeds’ because I’m overtly analytical and results-oriented, researching to understand problems and develop solutions, and I go after tasks until they’re finished. My long-term hobbies include diving and spearfishing, both activities with inherent risk. My attention to detail and reliance on equipment and procedures that are so vital to ensure safety in the ocean likewise enable me to best industry averages for deliveries and cost control while managing massive projects. Details matter, so I manage them with care.I’m open to InMails and connection requests, or you can email me at dlwilmnc@gmail.com.
