Introduction
Project schedule/program is an essential tool in project management because it provides a road
map to successful completion of the project. The project schedule communicates the works or
activities to be performed, the timeframe or duration for each activity and the human resource
needed to perform the work. Project scheduling is one of the key elements of project planning. It
is important to ensure that all key activities of the project are included in the project schedule.
For the proposed LC-01A building project, the project schedule contains all key activities from
site preparation to handing over. The project schedule presented here contains the activities that
need to be done, the duration needed to complete the activities, and the stakeholders responsible
for performing the activities. The project schedule is presented in form of a Gantt chart, as shown
in table 1 below. As shown in the project schedule, some activities are overlapping, which will
help in reducing the time of completing the project. The project manager will be responsible for
supervising ongoing works to ensure that they are done in accordance with the project
specifications and the relevant building standards and codes. The design team will be responsible

for inspecting ongoing work to ensure compliance with the design documents and relevant
standards.
