Hamza G.

Top Rated Plus Scheduler & Estimator ($190k+ Upwork earnings). I build bulletproof Primavera P6 baselines, analyze complex delay claims, and deliver precise quantity takeoffs for commercial & residential projects. Construction time and cost problems are rarely separate. A change in quantities, resources, productivity or sequence can affect both the project budget and the completion date. I help contractors, consultants, developers, subcontractors and project owners manage both sides of that equation through professional planning, scheduling, delay analysis and construction estimating. I am a Civil Engineer with a Master’s degree in Project Management and more than 7 years of construction industry experience. My experience includes more than 2,000 projects overall, including 230 completed Upwork contracts. PLANNING, SCHEDULING AND CLAIMS I develop construction schedules that are practical, logically connected and suitable for actual project control. My planning and scheduling services include: • Primavera P6 baseline schedules • Microsoft Project schedules • Tender and contract programmes • Work Breakdown Structure development • Activity coding, calendars and schedule organization • Construction sequencing and logic development • Critical Path Method analysis • Resource and cost loading • Schedule updates and progress measurement • Planned versus actual progress analysis • Look ahead programmes • Recovery and mitigation schedules • Progress curves and manpower histograms • Schedule narratives and management reports • Independent schedule reviews • Logic, constraint, float and critical path reviews I also support contractors and consultants with delay analysis and Extension of Time claims. My claims related services include: • Identification and assessment of delay events • Delay event chronology development • Time Impact Analysis • As planned versus as built analysis • Window based delay analysis • Critical path impact assessment • Concurrent delay assessment • Extension of Time claim preparation • Review of contractor and subcontractor claims • Preparation of responses to claim comments • Review of schedules, correspondence and progress records • Preparation of clear cause and effect narratives For every delay assignment, I work from the available schedule files, contract documents, progress reports, correspondence, drawings, instructions, variations and other contemporaneous project records. The analysis is presented in a clear and traceable format so that the relationship between the delay event and its effect on project completion can be understood. CONSTRUCTION ESTIMATING AND QUANTITY TAKEOFFS I prepare accurate and clearly organized estimates that help clients budget their projects, evaluate costs and submit competitive bids. My estimating services include: • Material and quantity takeoffs • Detailed construction cost estimates • Bills of Quantities • Bills of Materials • Labor, material and equipment breakdowns • Tender and bid estimates • Budget and conceptual estimates • Trade specific estimates • Change order and variation estimates • Scope review and drawing analysis • Marked up takeoff drawings • Excel based estimating reports • CSI division and trade based cost breakdowns • Review of assumptions, exclusions and scope gaps My estimating experience covers residential, commercial and civil construction. Relevant trades include concrete, reinforcement, masonry, structural steel, framing, drywall, ceilings, roofing, insulation, doors, windows, flooring, painting, finishes, earthwork, sitework and selected mechanical, electrical and plumbing quantities. SOFTWARE • Oracle Primavera P6 • Microsoft Project • Microsoft Excel • PlanSwift • Bluebeam Revu • On Screen Takeoff • RSMeans and available pricing databases WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT I approach every assignment from both a technical and commercial perspective. For scheduling assignments, you will receive a structured programme with clear sequencing, realistic logic and transparent assumptions. For claims assignments, you will receive a documented analysis supported by the available project records and an appropriate delay methodology. For estimating assignments, you will receive traceable quantities, organized cost information, marked drawings and clearly stated inclusions and exclusions. My objective is not simply to produce a schedule or spreadsheet. It is to provide reliable information that helps you plan the work, understand project risks and make informed decisions. If you need a baseline schedule, schedule update, recovery programme, schedule review, delay analysis, Extension of Time claim, quantity takeoff, Bill of Quantities or construction cost estimate, please send me your available documents. I will review the information and confirm the scope, required deliverables and completion time before starting.
