A common perception is that detailed project execution planning (PEP) is not necessary for pipeline projects. In particular, project teams argue that it is not worth the time and effort for an owner to develop a detailed execution plan because the contractor will provide one before construction begins. In addition, project teams will also argue that developing a detailed, resource-loaded schedule is overkill for a pipeline project. This study was undertaken to test the importance of good PEP to pipeline project results.
