COURSE OVERVIEW

Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. This course presents the principles and techniques of managing engineering and construction projects from the conceptual phase, through design and construction, to completion. It emphasizes project management during the early stages of project development because the ability to influence the quality, cost, and schedule of a project can best be achieved during the early stages of development. Although each project is unique, there is certain information that must be identified and organized at the beginning of a project, before any work is started. Numerous tables and graphs are presented and discussed throughout this course to provide guidelines for management of the three basic components of a project: scope, budget, and schedule. Project management requires teamwork among the three principal contracting parties: the owner, designer, and contractor. The coordination of the design and construction of a project requires planning and organizing a team of people who are dedicated to a common goal of completing the project for the owner. Even a small project involves a large number of people who work for different organizations. The key to a successful project is the selection and coordination of people who have the ability to detect and solve problems to complete the project.Throughout this course the importance of management skills is emphasized to enable the participant to develop his or her own style of project management. The focus is to apply project management at the beginning of the project, when it is first approved. Too often the formal organization to manage a project is not developed until the beginning of the construction phase. The course presents the information that must be assembled and managed during the development and engineering design phase to bring a project to successful completion for use by the owner.
