• Align the schedule to the commissioning plan and L0–L5 requirements to protect handover dates.
• Author and roll out scheduling processes, procedures, and templates across the portfolio.
• Define schedule specification requirements for agreements and review submissions.

• Maintain schedule risk registers and run quantitative schedule risk analysis.
• Assess time impact of change orders and other delays.
• Enforce schedule change governance.
• Produce portfolio-level schedule dashboards and narrative reporting.
