The Fleet Data Centers Project Controls Manager owns the end-to-end scope, overall project budget, and project schedule change process across large, multi-phase data center programs. This role ensures that all changes are identified, evaluated, approved, documented, and baselined in a consistent, auditable way, protecting MW delivery dates, yield-on-cost (YoC), and commercial commitments.

The Project Controls Manager partners closely with Schedulers, Build TPMs/Project Managers, Supply chain including Cost Management, Design & Engineering, Construction, Procurement, Finance, and Customer Engineering/Customer Success teams to maintain a single, trusted change register and to drive timely, informed decisions on change events.

How will you make a difference?

Change Governance & Process Ownership

• Own the change management framework for data center projects, from change identification through approval and baseline update.
• Define and maintain standard procedures, templates, and workflows for internal and external changes (GC, vendor, and customer-driven).
• Ensure the process aligns with commercial structures.
• Train and coach project teams on change discipline, documentation expectations, and approval thresholds.

Change Identification & Intake

• Establish clear mechanisms for capturing change triggers, including:
• • Customer requests and scope changes
  • Design development / IFC updates
  • Field conditions and constructability issues
  • Utility and power changes
  • Regulatory or code changes
• Facilitate early identification of potential changes through regular interaction with PMs/TPMs, Contractors , designers, and vendor management teams.
• Triage and log change events into a centralized change register, assigning ownership and next steps.

Impact Assessment – Scope, Budget, and Schedule

• Coordinate with Stakeholders and Build TPMs/PMs to assess:
• • Scope impact (what is changing and why)
  • Budget impact (incremental cost, contingency, reserve usage, YoC/$/MW impact)
  • Schedule impact (critical path, float erosion, milestone shifts, EOT needs)
• Support or lead Time Impact Analyses (TIA) i
