PROJECT MANAGEMENT DESIGN ESTIMATION MATERIAL PLANNING PROGRAMMING AND CONTROL

Project Management

Our projects are mainly characterized by the uniqueness and novelty of their conditions.

In our organization, Project Management is one of the key parameters for successful performance of projects. To achieve the desired outcome on every project, the Project Management department relies on a team of experienced engineers and skillful professionals throughout all phases of the project consisting of Planning, Execution, Delivery and Installation/Erection.

The responsibilities of the Project management department could be categorized in three stages:

  1. Planning – Upon award of a project to EMMC, a Project Manager is assigned to handle all technical and commercial matters associated with the project from inception to completion. At the outset of the project, the project engineers prepare a base schedule defining all milestones, activities, and special requirements taking the size and complexity of the project into consideration.
  2. Execution – The Project Manager communicates the project requirements to all other concerned departments within EMMC such as Procurement, Design, Manufacturing, and Finance. Throughout the execution phase, the Project Manager proactively monitors, controls, and reports the progress of the project and any associated variations to satisfy customer needs using the latest versions of Project Management Software.
  3. Delivery and Installation/Erection- Prior to starting shipment of manufactured items to the Installation site, the Project Management Team assigns a Site Support Coordinator to assist the Project Manager in providing service to EMMC’s customers. The Site Support Coordinator makes site visits throughout this phase of the project and communicates customer needs to the Project Manager ensuring an efficient and timely response. When Installation and is in EMMC’s scope of work, the Site Support Coordinator acts as a liaison between EMMC’s Site Engineer and the Project manager to assist in satisfying the customer and Installation subcontractor’s needs at the site.

Design

Our dedicated team of professional design engineers who prepare the most cost effective design based on customer specific job requirements and applicable codes can provide engineering expertise as well as detailed shop drawings which can be transmitted to the client through the FTP/internet.

EMMC’s design team integrates specific project requirements with detailed CAD drawings and our broad engineering expertise to produce some of the finest quality products available in the industry.

We have established fast communication achieved through electronic file transfer by E-mail or FTP using the internet between the Design department and Technical office of factory and site engineers.

The responsibilities of the Design department could be categorized in five groups:

  1. Mechanical design
  2. Providing shop drawings with the realistic view to the process
  3. Providing BOM/MTO
  4. Providing manufacturing and inspection manuals
  5. Providing Installation and Erection procedures.

Estimation and Material Planning

  • The estimating stage prior to the project being awarded to EMMC (through the Estimating Group)
  • The material planning stage after the project has been awarded to EMMC (through the Material Planning and Control Group)

The Department is responsible for the planning and management of the supply chain process with regards to both raw materials and fasteners, in addition to other special buyouts. This is done through the Material Planning and Control Group and includes the close involvement and coordination with the Procurement department with regards to the sourcing process and the selection of optimum suppliers whose delivery dates satisfy the project’s requirements.

Programming and Control

This department closely controls the processes and results to provide updated and complete reports to ease decision making for the managers. It achieves project requirements of delivery by planning work activities, and reviewing and coordinating between internal departments.

All aspects of our business from purchasing to shipment are monitored and controlled through this department.

The unit tasks are defined as:

The Programming and Control department produces the Piece Mark Tracking Report (PMTR) to track and monitor the progress and status of each piece in the whole project. PMTR also presents the status of the different stages of production for each project including: engineering completion, production order, preparation, material fitting, welding, shot blasting, painting, Q.C. inspection, and shipping completion. The code used for easy reference during fabrication and erection and cross-checking of the details of the individual piece.
