Covering letter:-
My experience of 5yrs in Project Management and co-ordinations both in Middle East and in India includes planning and controlling of medium and large size projects in which the responsibilities were performed to the utmost satisfaction of the clients & consultants. I am a graduate mechanical engineer and recently completed two years full time postgraduate programme in business administration (PGDBA) in a premier B-school in MumbaI, India with Operation Management as specialisation.

My full time PGDBA course, besides MBA skills, has sharpened my project management skills. It has also built into me strong business fundamentals.

As a Project Planning and co-ordination Engineer working with a major DCMEI (Design, Civil, Mechanical, Electrical & Instrumentation) Organisation involved in the construction & maintenance activities with PDO (Petroleum Development Oman), the largest oil & gas exploration company which is a conglomerate of SHELL, Holland, I was involved in tendering, contracts, planning, scheduling, monitoring, material planning & most importantly cost estimation/control of various ongoing projects. These projects involved micro level planning using all planning software’s like MS Projects, Suretrak & Primavera to achieve the completion target, with highest level of safety and quality.

As a Planning Engineer working with Petrochemical Business Unit of the largest engineering organisation in India, LARSEN & TOUBRO LTD, My responsibilities included preparing project schedules using advanced planning tools, monitoring & reporting, co-ordination with project engineers, job allocation, procurement follow up and preparation of job cost reports and cost statements.

My five years of functional experience in Project Management blended with management skills & knowledge in emerging business concept makes me an ideal candidate for your company. Looking forward for a favourable response.

Yours Sincerely,

Sanat Kumar Sahoo
