Project List 1995 to Present
PSE&G, Northeast Grid Reliability Project 2014
The Northeast Grid Reliability Project will upgrade 138kV to 230kV on existing overhead transmission lines and will add
a 230kV underground transmission circuit throughout Northern New Jersey. The upgrade will deliver increased electric
capacity required by New Jersey business and residents, increase transfer capability, provide better power quality, and
reduce transmission system congestion.
As the Senior Contracts Manager for PSE&G's Northeast Grid Reliability Project in Northern New Jersey, I was recruited
to help coach, mentor and train my four direct reports (each contract managers with little or no experience in commercial
or construction contracting) on commercial contracting, construction contracting, and the negotiation of commercial terms
and conditions, as well as improving the coordination of contract negotiations with PSE&G’s outside legal counsel. Their
working relationships with internal stakeholders and the outside legal counsel were poor and crucial negotiation deadlines
and program milestones for contract execution were not being met.
At the end of my assignment:
o We met 100% of all contract negotiation and contract execution milestones for that month
o A new sense of urgency and efficiency in responding to stakeholder needs was now in place
o My direct reports had received intensive training on time management, commercial contracting,
construction contracting, and the negotiation of contract terms and conditions
o The working relationship with PSE&G’s outside legal counsel was improved and the amount of
contract language re-writes was down by 60%.
Various Projects 2013
Lead Project Procurement Manager for various EPC Design Build projects in the USA. Led procurement efforts
on materials and services on a major utility power plant expansion project and an ethanol plant.
I was recruited to be the Purchasing Director for Future Projects. As such, I:
o Reduced backlog of contracts and purchase orders waiting to be issued by 30%
o Sourced and located second and third vendors for needed supplies and services; increased
competition and lowered prices by 30% as we moved away from sole source suppliers.
o Coached, mentored, and trained new buyers in commercial and construction contracting.
