Over the last ten years, the U.S. nuclear industry has seen large demands on its capital project/major modification organizations with the mandate to ensure compliance for a number of concerns. As the nuclear fleet continues to age, projects like these will continue to surface, representing large capital exposure for nuclear power plants. For that reason, successful execution of capital projects has never been more important. ScottMadden believes it is critical to ensure the capital projects organization and its projects are structured and organized with clear roles and responsibilities, disciplined in the execution of policies and procedures, and systematic about informing senior leadership of the likelihood and potential costs of project risks.
Success of your capital program depends on the ability to manage a portfolio of projects well and the ability to execute each project’s required actions on time, on budget, and with quality. ScottMadden’s Capital Program Assessment examines how the capital program is implemented—from top to bottom—with a look at the PMO, a specific project selected by our client, and a review of the performance reporting and tools in place. Our approach analyzes these critical areas to provide a detailed assessment of your capital program with actionable recommendations.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

12 Key Principles for a Project Manager:
5.Determine the Critical Paths and be decisive about
direction and deliverables
6.Make sure an Action is fully defined and do it once,
not multiple times
7.Ask for and obtain AUTHORITY; Responsibility comes
with the territory, but without ……Failure!
8. Authority – without it the Project Manager will be
weakened from the start

12 Key Principles for a Project Manager:
9.Look for active participants and team leaders / members – not passive

10.Realize that for lengthy projects they must be sold and resold, this is
done verbally and in presentation format. Don’t rely solely on Status Reports.
11. Make sure Management is committed to the success
of the Project!
12.Watch out for Creeping Commitments – where the project has a
critical element, but the resources are too limited to complete it.

11. OODA / Project ManagementOODA / Project Management
Development
Planning - Design
Costs – all costs to implement the project must be clearly described, along with cash flow commitments:
Contractor Costs, Software/Hardware/Maintenance Costs, Construction Costs, Employee Wages,
General Expense Increases, Insurance, Other Capital items, etc.
Schedule – a detail schedule with Tasks/Activities, Responsibility, Estimated Start, Est. Stop, and identification of
Critical Items
Teams – Teams and Team Members will be identified by Responsibility on the Schedule
You have now identified the Project, its Goals/Objectives, its Costs,
its Schedule, its Resources and you are ready to obtain APPROVAL.
12. OODA / Project ManagementOODA / Project Management

Organize
Businesses are made up of several departments, each serving a particular function. If the Project is to be
a company wide Project then Matrix Management will be required. For example, take the departments
below and Project Plan how you would include their participation:
Finance – Department head, team members and want to know INPUT / PROCESS / OUTPUT
Operations _______________ ____________ _____ _________ _______
Administration ______________ ____________ _____ __________ _______
Sales/Mktg ______________ ____________ _____ __________ _______
And all other Departments included in the Project Implementation Process

Control
Scope of Work – this is a clear definition of what the Project will accomplish and how each step is required
to meet the Goals and Objectives
Schedule - this is a timetable, identifying the Tasks, Responsibilities, Start and End Times
Cost/Benefits
Budgets - costs are identified in the Budget, Benefits are derived from the Return on Investment
Status Reports – typically there will be monthly / quarterly status reports to Executives (decision makers)
Review they will Review the reports and this is where you could ask for recommendations.
Critical Path - the Status Reports will help identify any Critical Paths that need attention. Sometimes
Analysis this means additional funding or resources. Regardless of impact – Management must
always be made aware of these situations. Every project will have a Critical Path.

Measure
Audit - the most effective method of meeting Audit criteria is to know what is being measured and
make sure the results are identified in the periodic Status Reports.
Contract - Although it rarely happens, towards the end of the Implementation phase is a good time to
to review the Contract and/or Statement of Work. This review helps substantiate the results.
Final Preparation - A Final Status Report will wrap-up any contractual obligations and officially Close the
Project’s Implementation, however, if this is a workable system it will always have
enhancements outside of the original Scope of Work.
Goals vs Accomplishments
– This is the measurement piece. Not all Projects meet 100% of the Goals, but
the successful ones bring returns that reduce costs, and increase revenue.

Project Management Workshop
And OODA Principles
Editor's Notes
Welcome Everyone.
Thank you for attending this workshop. We sincerely hope it will be of benefit to you as you begin development of your project(s).
Please ask any question as we proceed.
See the notes on the page.
OODA Project Management (OODA/PM) can be used for various applications including Technical – Aero, manufacturing, etc., Public Infrastructure – power, roads, broadband and any back Office operations for improved processes.
Development: Size up the project. Collaborate with fellow employees.
Project Definition: Describe the Project. Determine the benefits. Determine the Costs vs Benefits.
Planning: Determine the Resources (people) required. Will there be Capital Expenditures, and how much?
Will the Project be by Department, Agency, or whole Company. Will Matrix Management be required:
Example of Matrix Management:
CustomerOrder Acceptance Shipping
SALES
MATERIALS
PRODUCTION
Goals and Objectives: Must be clearly defined. Why is the Project so important?
Project Leader: A Project Leader should be someone with experience, someone who has performed before and had success, someone who has walked in the shoes of the team members.
Schedule: A time-table is difficult to produce without experience. You must know the capabilities of the team members, the collaboration of other departments and the backing of senior management.
Measurements: If you don’t have the authority or capability of measuring the successful outcome of the project, then walk away from it. Without proper measurements, the project will always be in doubt of its contributions / success.
These 12 points are here to remind you that you must LEAD, must be KNOWLEDGEABLE, EXPERIENCED, and have MANAGEMENT BACKING and COMMITMENT to the Project.
