About
Planning Engineer with approximately 3 years of professional experience in the construction industry, currently working with Paharpur Cooling Towers Limited at the Reliance Industries Limited project, where I serve as a Planning and Billing Engineer at site. In my current role, I am responsible for project planning, schedule preparation, progress monitoring, delay analysis, and client billing, while coordinating closely with site execution teams to ensure smooth project delivery. My responsibilities include preparing daily and weekly progress reports, S-curves, hindrance registers, and project monitoring reports, along with managing client billing, measurement verification, and billing submissions to ensure accurate progress tracking and timely payments.
I am also experienced in raising and managing ERP indents for site materials/items, ensuring timely procurement coordination and smooth site execution activities. With my combined exposure to planning, project monitoring, billing functions, and ERP-based material coordination, I am now looking to transition into a Project Controls role where I can contribute to effective project planning, schedule management, progress monitoring, delay analysis, and overall project performance management.
