Project Controls Built for the Complexity of Energy Infrastructure

K&A provides project controls services purpose-built for the demands of electric utility and energy infrastructure programs. Our scheduling professionals, including PMP- and PMI-SP-certified practitioners, begin each engagement by assessing the client's existing project controls environment, governance framework, scheduling practices, processes, and tools. Through gap analysis and stakeholder engagement, we identify opportunities to improve schedule development, performance management, reporting, and decision-making capabilities.

Whether supporting a multi-year capital program, a grid hardening initiative, or an EPC delivery, K&A's project controls professionals tailor project controls processes, governance structures, and scheduling methodologies to align with the client's organizational needs and project objectives.

FAQs

Frequently Asked
Questions

What does K&A's project controls service include?

K&A's project controls services cover cost management, schedule development and control, earned value management, KPI reporting, cash flow forecasting, risk tracking, change management support, and lessons learned documentation. Services can be delivered as a full integrated program control function or as targeted support for specific gaps within an existing team.

Do you embed within client teams or deliver project controls remotely?

Both. Professionals are structured to embed directly within client program teams, on-site, hybrid, or fully remote, depending on project requirements. We adapt to existing tools, reporting cadences, and governance structures rather than imposing a one-size approach.

What project types and scales do you typically support?

K&A supports project controls for programs ranging from individual capital projects to multi-year, territory-wide utility programs. Work includes EPC delivery, grid modernization, storm hardening, renewable energy integration, and transmission and distribution infrastructure programs.

What tools and software does K&A use for project controls?

Our team works across widely used project controls and scheduling platforms, adapting to each client's environment. We are experienced with Primavera P6, Microsoft Project, and common PMIS platforms, and we integrate with client financial and ERP systems as required.

How does project controls connect to K&A's other services?

Project controls is closely integrated with K&A's project and program management, document controls, financial services, and contract management capabilities. For EPC programs, project controls can be delivered as part of K&A EPC's integrated delivery model, maintaining unified cost and schedule visibility across engineering, procurement, and construction.

Does K&A provide project controls support for international programs?

Yes. K&A brings American engineering standards and project controls methodology to programs in the US and internationally, including projects across Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. Our teams are experienced in working within diverse regulatory environments and adapting reporting frameworks to local program requirements.
