Project Controls
SMA’s award-winning, research-based experience with project controls keeps your project on track from start to finish.
Customized project controls based on the latest research methods.
Construction is a highly uncertain environment. In order to keep your project on track, we amplify our project controls services by leveraging our deep understanding of the impact uncertainty can have on a project. We also integrate project controls with Monte Carlo simulation, customizing our services to the given complexity of any project. This provides stronger structure and clarity, giving project managers a comprehensive understanding of their project as it currently stands and a robust sense of its future trajectory. As a third-party manager of project controls, we provide an independent and objective view of your project.
SMA has implemented its services successfully on a wide range of projects, from simple neighbourhood drainage renewal programs to Light Rail Transit (LRT) systems. We were the first to pioneer the use of controls in design and engineering work, a system based on postgraduate research which we have published and presented nationally and internationally. SMA has won a Consulting Engineers of Alberta (CEA) 2014 award of excellence for EVIMS (Earned Value Integrated Management System), the system we developed to implement these services.
