Technical project execution
Project management for investment, construction and conversion projects, from the concept phase to commissioning. Technical, not generic PM. From an industrial engineer with experience in industry and at the authority.
What project execution means when I do it
Four building blocks that run in every technical project; with me they are hands-on, without PM folklore. I deliver tools, not certificates.
-
Project goals & framework conditions
Formulating clear goals (technical, economic, time-related), structuring the framework conditions, involving stakeholders. The foundation that has to be laid at the start, otherwise the project runs away from you.
-
Planning & control
Work packages, milestones, schedule and budget: as detailed as necessary, as lean as possible. No PM show, but control that is actually useful in day-to-day project work.
-
Interface management
Mediating between engineering, purchasing, IT, authorities, suppliers and production. One voice to the outside that understands both the technical language and the commercial constraints.
-
Controlling & documentation
Progress reports without buzzword overhead, traceable to-do lists, a clean project file, so that at acceptance nobody is left wondering what was decided and why.
Typical projects from my practice
Not every project is a fit, but I have already carried out the following kinds of project in several companies as production manager, deputy head of primary production or production assistant:
- Planning and implementing production or warehouse extensions
- Introducing new machines, plants or automation solutions
- Conversions including the permit procedure under trade law
- Optimising technical workflows or organisational structures
- Coordination between engineering, purchasing, IT and management on investment decisions
- Support during commissioning and handover to regular operation

I name specific client projects and references in a personal conversation, subject to agreement with the respective client companies. If you have a similar task and want to know whether I have solved it before: just give me a call.

A project that is stalling or never gets off the ground?
Phone me or book a first call. I will look at where the project stands and tell you what an external project manager can contribute, or whether you are better off solving it internally.
