Role & responsibilities :

Single-point owner of planning and scheduling for the Haldia Greenfield Edible Oil Refinery Project. The role combines the planning mandate execution strategy, package and resource planning, budget phasing with the scheduling mandate building the Integrated Project Schedule, monitoring progress against it, and giving leadership early warning while recovery is still possible.

1. Key Responsibilities

A. Project Planning & Baseline
- Translate the project execution strategy into a package-wise plan — contracting strategy, work fronts, milestone framework and phasing across engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning.
- Build the Level 1–4 Integrated Project Schedule (IPS) in Primavera P6; establish the WBS aligned to the execution plan, capex cost structure and plant unit numbering; freeze the approved baseline.
- Prepare package schedules for each process block — refining (degumming, bleaching, deodorisation), fractionation, hydrogenation / vanaspati, bakery fats, blending, packing lines (pouch, PET, jar, tin), PM blowing, tank farm,



jetty pipeline, boiler & turbine, ammonia, WTP / ETP / MEE and utilities.
- Resource- and cost-load the schedule to drive manpower histograms, contractor mobilisation plans and the monthly capex drawdown / cash-flow curve.
- Build statutory approvals in as hard milestones — Factory Licence, FSSAI, PCB CTE / CTO, IBR boiler & BOE, CEIG charging, PESO (ammonia / solvent), Fire NOC, Legal Metrology stamping and Haldia port / customs clearances.
- Reflect site constraints in the logic — monsoon and tidal / jetty windows, piling, hydro-testing and tank calibration sequence.

B. Scheduling, Monitoring & Forecasting
- Update the schedule on a fixed weekly cut-off from site, contractor, vendor and engineering progress.
- Report planned vs actual physical progress, SPI / CPI, variance and forecast-at-completion using earned value, with agreed progress-measurement rules per discipline.
- Maintain S-curves,
