Automated Project Controls and Critical Path Analysis: Turning Experience into Earlier Project Decisions

Complex engineering and infrastructure projects rarely fail because a project team does not have a programme. They fail because the programme, cost forecast, risk register, procurement plan, construction sequence, supplier performance and operational constraints are not understood as one connected delivery system. Most projects generate a substantial volume of information.

Managing Change on Complex Projects: Controlling Cost, Programme and Risk

Change is a normal part of project delivery. It is particularly common on complex engineering, infrastructure, energy and operational projects, where technical development, existing conditions, operational requirements and specialist interfaces continue to evolve as the work progresses. However, a change is rarely only a technical matter. A revised design, different

Construction Management: Controlling Delivery on Complex Engineering Projects

Construction management is the point at which a project’s design, programme, procurement strategy and engineering intent are tested against the practical realities of delivery. It is where drawings become installed systems, planned activities become work packages and theoretical sequences are tested against access restrictions, existing services, site conditions, specialist contractor

Managing Change Without Disrupting Operations

Construction & Commissioning in Live Operational Environments: Managing the Transition Without Disrupting Operations Construction within a live hospital or manufacturing facility is fundamentally different from construction on an empty site. The physical work may be similar, but the environment in which it has to be delivered is not. Hospitals still

Engineering Management: Why Technical Interfaces Define Complex Project Performance

Complex engineering projects rarely struggle because the individual disciplines lack technical capability. The mechanical, electrical, process, civil, structural and controls expertise may all be present. The greater challenge is getting those disciplines to develop together as one integrated engineering solution. As projects become more technically complex, the number of interfaces

Project Controls: Why Complex Projects Lose Control Before They Lose Time

Project delays rarely begin with a missed completion date. They begin much earlier, when small changes in engineering, programme, cost, risk and delivery performance stop being understood as part of the same picture. Complex capital projects generate enormous quantities of information. Engineering deliverables, procurement schedules, construction programmes, cost reports, technical
