• Responsible for scope, schedule, budget, and quality on multidiscipline engineering projects of up to $1MM. Total funded value of engineering projects under my management was greater than $5MM. Portfolio consisted of both fixed price and T&M projects. • Clients in power generation, sugar refining, and research labs. Most projects focused on electrical infrastructure upgrades (e.g. MCC and Unit substation replacements).• Managed subcontractor scope, schedule, and budget. • Reviewed, approved, and/or processed proposals, cost estimates, estimates to complete, scopes of work, milestone and Critical Chain schedules, purchase orders, change orders, invoices, and subcontractor payments. • Prepared and monitored resource-loaded project schedules with milestones driven by workload estimates• Led meetings with both internal, external, and subcontracted stakeholders. Presented project status reports and addressed outstanding proposals/change orders, late invoices, schedule delays, and scope creep.• Responsible for ensuring engineers conformed to company safety procedures including the use and review of health and safety plans and task/job hazard analyses forms. • Acted as single point of contact for client’s corporate personnel. • Reviewed contract documents to ensure conformance by ENERCON and subcontractor personnel.• Provided feedback and coaching to engineers on high level concepts such as the elimination of error traps, reducing rework by following the prescribed work breakdown structure, and technical writing. • Worked with Manager or Projects to address/explain variances in project financials and monitor projects’ financial health. Variances were between recognized revenue (accrual basis, based on project percent complete) and revenue calculated as a function of billed hours. • Experience with accrual-based and cash-based accounting principles• Continued to champion Critical Chain project management implementation into division.

• Lead engineer in multidiscipline engineering projects up to $950k (excluding construction costs) for simple-cycle and combined-cycle gas turbine, coal, and hydro plants. Project funding under my direct management totaled $2MM (excluding construction costs). Projects scopes included initial study, detailed design, vendor management, client management, and construction support. Acted as main point of contact to clients on projects I led. • Prepared, reviewed, and/or managed projects that included the following scopes: Feedwater heaters, steam attemperators, water bath fuel gas heaters, gas turbine performance studies, air compressors, and transformer fire protection systems.• Managed team of 10+ mechanical engineers and technicians• Developed budgets/proposals and managed scope/schedule/budget• Developed cost estimate templates to improve accuracy of scope development, efficiently generate a work breakdown structure, and accurately develop effort-based schedule milestones. Streamlined this approach into a workflow that began at the proposal phase and was efficiently integrated/updated into the project plan upon receipt of purchase order. • Spearheaded effort to implement MS Project and Critical Chain project management processes in division. Case study resulted in detailed design work (200% of conceptual design revenues) pulled forward by finishing all conceptual design projects in case study ahead of schedule and under budget

Kennesaw, Ga

• Prepared and reviewed design change packages for power transmission and distribution projects from design criteria development through construction support.• Used PLSCadd and PLSPole for pole and route design, PIRSTL for foundation design, and AutoCAD for drawing preparation/revision. • Lead engineer on design projects during last two years in this division.• Prepared as-built PLSCadd models and design documentation following construction. • Prepared studies to determine most cost-effective route and structure type. • Performed and/or reviewed PLSCadd models for NERC clearance analysis. Determined applicable ambient weather conditions and clearances based on NESC code, maximum current through conductors, and maximum allowable temperature based on conductor material. • Wrote internal procedure for NERC clearance analysis process to reduce learning curve for new hires. Provided recommended remediations to address these clearance issues. • First-level instructor for the PLSCadd suite for new engineers.• Extensive experience with NESC code and RUS standards • Led an analysis to minimize construction costs that saved client more than $5MM

• Performed calculations and prepared drawings for various nuclear generation projects• Lead mechanical engineer on auxiliary transformer deluge system design change package within one month of employment
