Suddath believes the term "project management" is more than just the coordination and tracking ofproduct shipments. Our Project Managers constantly challenge the norm and seek to outperform inour client’s best interest. Their focus is maintaining the most efficient and safe operations possible.

Our typical project management team is based on a number of key personnel: l Project Implementation Manager (PIM), corporate basedl Project Manager (PM), site basedl Project Coordinator (PC), consolidation point based

Quality Assurance and Cost Controll Inspection of product at supplier location and/or consolidation point drastically reduces the

probability of damaged or incorrect product arriving on site l Proactive forecasting of inbound shipments l Use of the same dock & drayage facilities prevents unforeseen delaysl Variable support staff reduces costly overhead

Because our project management team tracks the progress of your project as a whole, we providecontrol and visibility that supplier-routed transportation or employing multiple logistics providerscannot offer. With the assistance of our advanced information systems, our project managers helpyou to keep projects on schedule and on budget.

Communication and Reporting At Suddath, we believe that open communication, group planning, teamwork and constantperformance reporting are key to a successful project and high customer satisfaction. We maintaina schedule of regular progress meetings with our clients and service providers throughout all stagesof the project. Frequent cost reporting, work in progress reports, updated schedules, and servicereviews keep all parties informed on current operations.

CONSOLIDATION AND INVENTORY CONTROL

Utilizing a Suddath storage facility, or that of one of our worldwide commercial partners, reduces theneed for on-site storage and allows for strategic kitting of materials based on facility areas or projectphases. Our team proactively looks for concerns to prevent delivery of the wrong or damagedproduct. If damage or an incorrect order is found, Suddath will proactively take action to remedy theissue (this can include: notification of supplier, return to sender, photograph or other documentationof the order inconsistency or damage, and taking further steps to rectify). Above all, our focus is tokeep the project running efficiently.

Our objective is to make the installation and construction processes for energy projects go assmoothly as possible. We can provide labor for unloading and unpacking at the project site. Wenotify the installer/contractor that materials are on site and supervise the process to ensure thatthey are entered into the system as installed.

INSTALLATION MANAGEMENT

l Ability to provide a reliable pool of labor

l Coordination with the Installer/Contractor to schedule and expedite turnover

l Transitional sign-offs are used when turning over to installer/contractor in case of damage

l Supervision of rigging if required for project

l Complete building protection mandatory

l Removal of packaging material from site and recycling

l Punch list executed by phase

l Rigorous safety guidelines for on-site staff

On-Site Storage Management

Although we utilize off-site consolidation points, mostprojects will require some form of on-site storage.We can manage an existing facility or help set up atemporary one for this purpose. If required,Suddath’s SAM (Store-And-Move) division canprovide portable storage containers that offer easilytransportable interim storage solutions.

Sustainability & Green Initiatives We can help you to reduce the carbon footprint of your project by consolidating shipments, usingrecyclable and reusable packaging, and disposing of packaging in an environmentally friendly way.Furthermore, when possible, we can arrange for direct shipments from the supplier to the projectsite; this will cut down on costs as well as reduce the emissions associated with additionaltransportation. A single-source logistics provider is better suited to measuring performance metricsfor a project’s green initiatives by providing aggregate information and data on thelogistics process.

of specific taxesl Real-time inventory reportsl Variance Report - percent of product delivered on-time vs. late deliveriesl Variance from Schedule Report - showing actual vs. proposed installation schedulel VE (value engineered) Logistics Report - showing financial savings while maintaining
