Mohan Vamsi Potti

Mohan Vamsi Potti is an early-career project controls and field engineering professional whose work sits at the operational “control tower” of large capital projects—where schedule logic, cost visibility, and on-the-ground execution discipline determine whether multi-hundred-million-dollar programs stay on track. Over roughly 2.5 years across power generation, LNG, industrial chemicals, and renewable energy construction, he has specialized in turning complex field activity into auditable plans and measurable progress using modern project-controls methods and tooling, particularly Oracle Primavera P6.

In Texas, on the SLEC 1,200 MW combined-cycle natural gas power plant project (approximately $600M), Potti worked as a Project Controls Analyst responsible for building and maintaining Level 3 construction schedules in Primavera P6. His scope blended practical construction coordination—integrating subcontractor updates and vendor deliverables—with analytical rigor: critical path analysis, float tracking, schedule-risk assessment, and regular variance reporting. Primavera’s scheduling approach is built around critical-path computation and float-path analysis—capabilities that allow project teams to identify schedule drivers, quantify risk, and target recovery actions before delays become irreversible.

At Venture Global’s Plaquemines LNG program in Louisiana—supporting installation of five Gas Turbine Generator units for a $100M power-generation scope—he extended the same controls discipline into cost and performance visibility. In addition to baseline schedule updates and recovery support, he produced earned value management (EVM) reporting and progress curves for forecasting and budget tracking. EVM is widely used on complex programs because it ties scope, schedule, and cost together in a single performance framework, enabling objective assessments of whether a project is earning progress at the rate required to meet budget and delivery targets.

His field-engineering roles at PCL Construction on industrial projects (Formosa Plastics, Port Lavaca, and Chevron Phillips Chemical, Baytown) show the other side of his profile: execution controls in the field. He contributed to measurable improvements in project operations—improving log accuracy, reducing RFI and shop-drawing response times, and reducing material shortages through inventory-control coordination—while maintaining attention to safety standards and code compliance through audits and weekly safety walks.

Earlier experiences—supporting CASATA project planning and contributing to the Waco Solar 1 project—rounded out his exposure to planning, permitting, equipment coordination, and lean construction methods. Across these assignments, a consistent theme emerges: using structured systems (P6 scheduling, cost codes, forecasting models, progress reporting) to reduce ambiguity for stakeholders and improve the reliability of delivery. His PMP certification reinforces that orientation toward disciplined planning, risk management, and stakeholder communication.
