Proper planning leads to clarify objectives, enhance operation efficiency, uderstand project deliverables and avail a basis for monitoring and controlling project activities. The quality of a construction plan depends heavily on the level of capabilities and quality of the planning engineer who is responsible for setting a comprehensive plan for the execution of a construction project. This study aims to identify the parameters that qualify an individual to be a planning engineer for construction projects. Contractors in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia were surveyed regarding factors impacting the quality of planning engineers.

This paper provides contractors with parameters to help them to recruit the proper planning engineer and/or to improve the skills of their planners.
