Agua Vista Station

Overview:

Agua Vista Station plays a vital role in securing San Antonio’s future water supply. Located in Stone Oak, the facility delivers nearly 45 million gallons of water per day. It supports the Vista Ridge pipeline system, which spans 142 miles from Burleson County to San Antonio. This is achieved through precise project controls and scheduling services, ensuring successful integration.

CPM Scheduling

Utilizing comprehensive services for scheduling and project controls guided the timely delivery of this essential infrastructure. The scheduler developed the baseline schedule, ensuring alignment with engineering milestones, procurement needs, and long-lead components crucial to project success.

During execution, monthly schedule updates helped facilitate the tracking of progress through scheduling services and project controls. They flagged risks and provided corrective actions when necessary. As a result, the team maintained schedule integrity through every phase.

Additionally, coordination meetings supported collaboration between contractors, engineers, and city representatives. Leveraging these services improved accountability, accelerated issue resolution, and maintained consistent communication.

Moreover, the team consistently monitored labor trends, weather impacts, and permitting workflows, all key components of scheduling services and project controls. Each update included variance analysis and look-ahead planning tools. These insights helped teams forecast challenges and shift resources to meet critical targets.

The Agua Vista project’s complexity demanded a flexible yet disciplined approach. Multiple contractors, high-stakes milestones, and limited float made scheduling accuracy critical. Despite those constraints, the project progressed smoothly and supported the city’s goal of diversifying its water sources.

By project closeout, Agua Vista Station had become a key asset in San Antonio’s water infrastructure strategy. The system now reduces reliance on the Edwards Aquifer and supports future population growth.

This successful delivery underscores the value of proactive scheduling, detailed planning, and collaborative execution within project controls and scheduling services. Through this effective implementation, the team delivered a high-impact utility project with long-term regional benefits, showcasing their essential role in such services.
