Skanska has announced the hire of Chris Maslyk as scheduling director, in support of its building construction business in California.
Maslyk brings more than 32 years of experience managing the planning, production, and construction of both domestic and international projects to this role. He will utilize his keen analytical skills and experience to support Skanska’s customers by developing CPM schedules, evaluating build sequences and assessing risk to ensure timely delivery of projects throughout the region.
The number of projects requesting Lean expertise is growing, and Maslyk brings exceptional skills and knowledge in this arena.
