This document summarizes the results of a value management workshop for an educational building project in Klang Valley, Malaysia. The workshop identified ways to reduce costs and improve value. Recommendations included changing from conventional to industrialized building system construction, reducing the number of lifts, combining electrical rooms, and changing to a hollow slab system. These and other changes could save an estimated RM1,127,133.84 and reduce the construction cost from RM4,687,275.92 to RM3,560,142.08. The value management approach was deemed successful and should be implemented earlier in the design process.

This document discusses and compares different construction project procurement methods for a proposed 20-story condominium development. It analyzes traditional procurement, management contracting, lump sum contracting, and design-build approaches. The traditional method is recommended due to the project size and the client's need for cost certainty and control over design quality. This procurement method provides a fixed contract price early and ensures the client can directly influence the design, while also transferring most risks to the contractor.
This document discusses and compares different construction project procurement methods for a proposed 20-story condominium development. It analyzes traditional procurement, management contracting, lump sum contracting, and design-build approaches. The document recommends the traditional procurement method for this project, noting it provides price certainty, allows for client control over design quality, and secures the project budget and completion timeline. Traditional procurement is seen as most suitable given the project characteristics and client needs and risks. Design-build is not recommended due to reduced client control and potential cost-cutting affecting quality for a large-scale development like a 20-story condominium.
This document discusses four procurement methods - traditional, design and build, management contracting, and construction management. It analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of management contracting and traditional methods in terms of time, cost, risk, and design control. Traditional method provides more certainty of cost and schedule as design is complete before tender. However, it has a longer project duration. Management contracting allows for earlier start but has uncertainty of final cost until contracts are signed and client loses some design control. The document concludes the traditional method is most suitable for the project.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.
