We can all think of projects that, once started, run out of control and finish late and over budget. Every project needs effective control, and this course will enable an organisation to be more effective at keeping its projects on track. Aimed at those who wish to learn the principles and practice of good project control, this course covers the fundamental skills required and aims to give the student the working knowledge required to undertake a project controls role.
The planning phase of a project is key. When planning and scheduling, we set ourselves up to succeed. Conversely, if we get it wrong at the planning stage, implementation is going to be very hard, and we are likely not to deliver to target. As the saying goes, “if we fail to plan, we plan to fail”. This course is for those who already have some project controls experience and wish to build on it, who want to plan and schedule projects comprehensively and well, and maximise the chances of delivering projects to time, cost, quality, and scope.
Scheduling is vital to project success. Getting it right is fundamental. Without good scheduling, we have little chance of delivering on the key project goal of on-time completion. Microsoft Project is a well-known scheduling tool, used all over the world in many projects. This course will teach you not only how to get the best out of MS Project, but also teach you the best practice scheduling principles that lie behind project success and help your projects complete on time.
Stay in Control of Your Project Costs. Projects can be complex undertakings, and at times seem to be ever changing. In this high pressure, dynamic environment, it’s easy to lose control of your project’s costs and end up over budget. This course will give you the knowledge to enable you to control your costs better, and to help your project stay on track. Whether you are a project manager or project cost engineer, it’s vital that you keep your skills and expertise current.
Project scheduling is a key function of the project controls. Getting this right means that our projects are more likely to deliver on time. Risk management is also a critical part of the discipline, and interfacing the two elements facilitates more robust, adaptable and reliable schedules, and increases confidence that they can be delivered.
Cost management is critical to delivering successful projects. We want our projects to come in on budget and to meet their cost targets. But often, cost seems to run out of control, or things happen on the project that mean existing funds are no longer enough. This course will help you to set the correct budget, to control project expenditure effectively, and to plan realistically for risks and uncertainties that arise. Adopting an integrated approach to cost and risk management, course delegates will increase their confidence that they will deliver on project cost promises, thus making project success more likely.
Risk is all around us – it’s a fact of life, affecting whatever we do, be it personally or professionally. But this doesn’t have to be a problem. Instead, recognising risk, and knowing how to deal with it can improve our professional performance and even help us to make the best of our opportunities. Conversely, if we don’t take risk into account, or know how to manage it, we are exposed to failure in whatever we do. This interactive and practical course will enable delegates to understand and identify a range of risks and provide tools to analyse and manage them so that negative effects are minimised, or opportunities can be taken. Aimed at professional staff in a variety of roles, the course combines learning, practical examples, and student exercises to develop understanding and competence in this important area.
Make Sure that Project Risks Don’t Come and Bite You. Projects can be risky undertakings, and many have suffered because the project manager was unaware of the risks or did not handle them well. If we fail to plan for our risks, then we are asking for trouble. Whether you are a project manager or involved in managing project risk, it’s clear that dealing effectively with risk is a key skill. This course will give you the knowledge to recognise, plan for and manage the risks in your projects and in doing so, increase your chances of project success.
Commissioning is a critical project stage, and it is therefore vital to project outcomes that this activity goes well. Risk management is a key project discipline that can maximise the probability of successful commissioning. Although risk management is applied at all stages of a project, there are particular problems and opportunities in the commissioning phase that require specialist consideration. This course will help you to understand project risk management, and then use it effectively in a commissioning setting.
Adopting an integrated approach to commissioning and risk management, course delegates will increase their confidence that they will deliver on commissioning objectives, thus making project success more likely.
