Tom provided detailed schedules — for a project with over 5 million square feet of construction — broken down into phases with thousands of activities and multiple milestone dates. All formatted so each trade contractor's foreman could execute it.
When working for me I could always count on Tom to get the job done — and more importantly, done right. His attention to detail and pride in his work are second to none.
Tom is a dedicated person whose attention to detail is at the forefront of his work ethic. He puts the needs of clients first and is very willing when it comes to resolving issues. He is very knowledgeable in project control processes with advanced knowledge of scheduling applications. I would recommend Tom and his staff to anyone.
I've worked with Tom on two different engagement teams involving the certification of Project and Program Managers. His knowledge of applied project scheduling techniques and the use of P3/P3e is extremely deep, broad and thorough. He has an engaging delivery style that always scored well with stakeholders.
Tom is the best scheduler and project planner I have ever worked with. He has set the bar for collaboration and consensus building on many complex projects. He integrates technology into his practice in a very complementary way. I highly recommend his services.
Tom and I have worked closely supporting mutual clients since 2001. I have come to trust Tom as a professional who will get the job done. I have observed firsthand his dedication to customers and their reliance on him as an advisor to bring accountability throughout their project team.
Tom is one of the most knowledgeable people I've met in my career in construction scheduling and strategy. Working closely with him on two large projects in NY and NJ led to his doing all construction master scheduling and project scheduling for all Deloitte projects.
Tom is one of the sharpest, brightest minds out there when it comes to CPM scheduling and project management. He's a team player that communicates well with clients and fellow team members. We subcontract work to him as much as possible — he gets us more work simply by doing an excellent job.

Our Consulting Team
When you hire Schedule Solutions, you are hiring a team of professional planners with over 70 years of combined experience planning projects across almost every industry.
Focus on your core competencies. You are not schedulers — we are! You do not have time to focus on your schedule right now and it needs to be done right the first time.
Using Schedule Solutions on a project-by-project basis is more cost effective than having a full-time employee assigned to scheduling. On most projects, the cost for all of the necessary software and training can be more expensive than hiring Schedule Solutions to prepare the schedules for you.
Your proposal or presentation is more professional when accompanied by a well thought out schedule. Stand out from the competition before work even begins.
Improve your financial forecast by making it project-based and linked to cost-loaded activities. Know precisely when money will be spent before it's gone.
Adequately plan ahead to anticipate rather than react. The fewer surprises, the better. Proactive planning is always cheaper than crisis management.
Capitalize on industry-standard Primavera P6 to control the timing and sequence of project tasks. Manage by critical path to meet immovable deadlines — e.g. School Opens September.
Do you know when a project task needs people? How many? What skill-set? Proper resource loading prevents costly idle time and last-minute overtime surprises.
Track actual progress against a baseline schedule to defend your position in the event of a dispute. Documentation is your best legal protection.
We consider your interest in Schedule Solutions a serious investment you are making towards the improved performance and predictability of your organization.
