The Future of Oilsands Projects – Productivity Improvement & the Role o...Nick Anderson
Mobilizing armies of skilled labor from diverse locations and cultures, moving large equipment into remote locations in harsh climatic conditions and managing to budgets while costs are escalating make oil sands projects among the most challenging ever undertaken. Perhaps the most critical success factor in managing such complex projects is establishing and developing productive relationships. This key factor is very difficult to measure yet is cited repeatedly as the
number one reason for project failure. Consistently, project managers’ expectations of, colleagues, teams, subcontractors, workers and project partners are substantially different from what they actually think is expected of them. Such misalignments result in expected tasks not being completed in the way required for project success, tasks being completed in a sub-optimal sequence or excessive time invested on “low return” tasks.
These misalignments cascade into scheduling conflicts, delays, cost overruns, personnel turnover, increased stress, safety and legal issues.
The take-away: New methods have been developed for the gathering and analysing of expectations from both the expectation originator’s and expectation receiver’s point of view. This enables the diagnosis of misalignments critical to project success, and facilitates the timely conversations required to align expectations and to keep projects on track before they become critical variables. Resource and competency gaps are exposed and addressed. High achieving managers can be identified. A culture of communication, alignment and accountability can be measured and developed.
LoCC Measurable Improvement in Your Development ProcessJoseph Horwedel
Presentation to the League of California Cities Planning Commissioners Institute on Measurable Improvement in Your Development Process in 2009 at Anaheim, CA. The presentation looked at common methods to assess your process, review measurement tools and look at pitfalls based on the experiences in San Jose from outside consultant reviews and on going process improvement efforts.
Improvement of Hospital Project Cost and Schedule Mgmt Final RptEd Kozak
Of pressing concern to the CFO of our client hospital were the spending issues and schedule
slippages of internal implementation projects--issues that he felt contributed to the
current cash flow problem of the hospital that would grow to an even greater problem if
EMR capabilities weren’t fully implemented and operational by 2015. The CFO solicited
external help to 1) validate why there has existed such a level of overspending and
schedule slippage on projects, 2) propose a recommendation for solutions, and 3) change
the existing process to ensure better project budget and schedule control in the long run.
Successful Projects For Leaders (SP4L) had been hired as a consultant to assess what
went wrong with that implementation and to improve how projects in general would be
conducted so that it could move forward with the EMR project successfully. By using a systematic approach, we identified several areas in the project Initiation-Planning-Execution-Control-Closing process that needed modification. The net result is
better project cost and schedule performance, leading to better cash flow budgeting and
planning, with an expected savings of more than $350,000 annually as well as improved
acceptance and ownership by the end-users. Based on the proactive response to their
issues, the CFO, CNO, and PCCs are satisfied and are serving as excellent centers of
influence for the rest of Senior Management and the nursing staff, respectively.

Before Hurricane Rita blew ashore, adding more damage to the already storm-ravaged southern shores, Mahaffey Fabric Structures was contacted by a Fortune 100 utility company, Entergy, and told to be ready to mobilize to Texas as soon as conditions made travel safe.
The day after Rita hit land, Mahaffey was on the scene in Beaumont, TX installing structures to house Entergy’s utility line workers and tree trimmers.
Within 48 hours, Mahaffey Fabric Structures erected a base camp with structures to feed and shelter more than 600 disaster relief workers.

Super Series™ is quickly set up and expandable in both width and length. It has been tested for decades and can be outfitted with just about any accessory item found in a permanent building.
The Super Series is engineered for short-term installations (less than two years), and withstands winds up to 90 mph without a snow load.
Environmental remediation takes on many forms. When remediation needs to take place in an urban setting, a temporary fabric structure is a prudent choice, both for protection and concealment.
Covering the work site with a tensioned fabric structure will help to reduce contamination both of the site itself, (from rain or snow) and the surrounding community, (from fumes and odors.) Mahaffey has got you covered.
We are THE experienced, knowledgeable provider of tents and fabric membrane enclosures. Our structures are modular, scalable and easily relocated.
These pre-fabricated structures can be assembled at an effective rate of 10,000 square feet per day, and can be outfitted with equipment doors, personnel doors, and lighting.
With peak heights of up to 56 feet, there's plenty of room for excavators, loaders and dump trucks.
These tensioned fabric structures enable the tight seal necessary to create a negative pressure environment, and the opaque fabric allows for the optimum level of privacy to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted flow of work at the site.
