Integrated Materials Management is a core competence of Bechtel’s global Supply Chain organization. It plays a crucial role in broader process of Project Management, addressing the unique aspects of capital project execution. Materials Management integrates the Engineering, Supply Chain, and Construction organizations to ensure smooth material flow from planning through execution to project jobsites.

 

Engineering and constructing unique projects involve an iterative series of design, supply, and construct activities, all under strict schedule requirements. Early engineering design and the specification of equipment and materials, especially in compressed schedules, are often influenced by sourcing principles and material flow model that determine the acquisition strategy, what equipment and materials are required, and the schedules that are achievable to meet Construction’s needs towards work front planning and constructability reporting.

 

The Integrated Materials Management organization collaborates with Engineering, Supply Chain, Project Controls, and Construction to respond to the dynamic conditions of major capital projects. This collaboration ensures access to critical information on sourcing and supply of materials, facilitating the completion of facility design and enabling Construction to meet installation schedules.

 

There are two distinct roles within Supply Chain’s Integrated Materials Management discipline - Material Planners and Material Coordinators. Material Planners typically work within the
