Experience
Project Management - Project Planning Specialist
Sep 2023 — Present · Pune, IN
As a Project Planning Specialist at Baker Hughes, I specialize in Core Project Scheduling and Controls, distinguished by my expertise in Strategic Procurement and Manufacturing Methods. While many planners focus solely on software inputs, I utilize my background in Methods Engineering to validate technical durations and my experience in Procurement to accurately forecast material lead times. My approach extends beyond schedule creation; I ensure that schedules are firmly rooted in manufacturing realities and supply chain constraints. Currently, I manage intricate engineering schedules using Oracle Primavera P6 and MS Project (for smaller projects), ensuring that Critical Path timelines are not only ambitious but also attainable. I serve as a crucial link between Engineering, Supply Chain Management, and Project Management, proactively mitigating risks before they impact financial performance.
