Project Controls Expo 18th Nov 2014 - Introduction and key note presentation ...Project Controls Expo
I believe that project delivery challenges are driving organisations towards greater integration and changing the way we should approach Project Controls within project delivery organisations.
This presentation captures my thoughts on a way forward for Project Controls within a Project Delivery organisation discussing:
Scope definition and Work Breakdown techniques driving more effective data integration (Single sources of key data from numerous functions)
Improvements in systems and system integration
Use of Data Warehouses and Management Information systems
Utilisation of BIM incorporating 4th (Time) and 5th (Cost) dimensions
Taking a simpler higher level approach to creation of a control model
Use of an Earned Value Management system and EV Maturity Compass
The need for a wider range of skills to deliver good control
An integrated industry approach to career definition, development, training and qualifications for Project Controls within the Project Management umbrella
My experience tells me that there is no single ‘magic ingredient’ to delivering successful projects; but greater integration of management and team activities, intelligent application of recognised best practices and fit-for-purpose processes, tools and systems would benefit UK construction as a whole in the future.

To deliver a complex project to @me and cost requires a proper understanding, at regular stages and at an appropriate level of detail, of the rela@onships between: work done, progress against plan, cost incurred against budget, cash spent and cost to come.

GreenStream's Technology Partner Manager Jenna Hytti gave a presentation in Techcode's China seminar and told GreenStream's story in China for the Finnish start-ups. The presentation tells how GreenStream has changed its business for several times in China, due to the rapid changes in the business environment. It also describes many lessons learned from the past 10 years that GS has been active in China.
One of the key issues facing the roll out of carbon capture and storage (CCS) will be the availability of commercial finance to support the significant capital investment needs of the industry. Whilst a small number of projects have begun early discussions with debt finance providers, the appetite for, and understanding of, CCS in the financial sector has not been widely tested to date. With this in mind, the Global CCS Institute recently commissioned Societie Generale to take the pulse of the international finance community to determine the awareness, understanding and appetite for financing CCS projects with debt.
In this webinar, Allan Baker, Global Head of Power Advisory & Project Finance at Societe Generale, presented the findings of this exercise and discuss key issues for financial institutions in the CCS sector, potentially available sources of finance for projects and how to unlock this liquidity.

The Reddix Group:Alternative to the Prime-Subcontractor Business ModelJoe Reddix
As an alternative to the traditional, hierarchical prime-sub contracting model, the Reddix Group’s Networked Team approach is truly innovative and a re-usable strategy across the Federal government. In addition, our thought leadership on policy combined with a management philosophy that focuses on high performing, Integrated Program Teams (IPTs) brings together requisite subject matter expertise at the task level for delivering measurable, tangible results. While typical, status-quo contract teams are stifled by pre-determined qualifications, constrained resources and inability to adapt, our approach is designed to foster collaboration, deliver innovative solutions and improve operational effectiveness.
In this its 37th year, we look at the medium term outlook for the industry as a whole, key industry, sector, and regional developments, as well as developments on the international stage. We are happy to report some initial signs of stabilisation in the industry but also demonstrate that the industry is operating at wholly unsustainable levels in terms of output

A Best of Breed Approach to Accelerate Projects with High Reliability binozu
We discuss a harmonious mix of proven Best of Breed techniques from multiple leading methods—including Critical Chain, Agile, and Lean—integrated in an innovative way to boost performance by 2X or better with High Reliability. This approach provides leaders in project-centric organizations with a much higher-powered framework for unifying project teams and stakeholders at all levels, for enhancing the flow of productive work, and for aggregating risk for much higher portfolio reliability and for increasing the Return on Investment.

f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

construction and services.

The Merger!
Acergy and Subsea 7 merged in January 2011 to
form a global SURF company
Turnover in excess of $6bn
Delivering over 200 projects ranging from $5m to
over $1bn
Operating in 17 countries around the World
10. 10Page6-Nov-12
Context
A New Vision
‘To have a Project Services function delivered
globally, in a consistent and sustainable
manner enabling the easy transfer of
resources and knowledge and supporting all
types of project’
11. 11Page6-Nov-12
Context
The Challenge!
Two companies with two cultures
Many different stakeholders
Different levels of maturity and understanding in Project
Controls
Different portfolio mix
Must be ‘Scaleable’
15. 15Page6-Nov-12
Approach 1:
Its Not Just About Projects!
• Work closely with Key stakeholders
• Get your structures right
• Change mindsets, eg summary reports
• What do you really ‘need’?
17. 17Page6-Nov-12
Approach 2:
Different Levels of Business Risk
• Be clear where different solutions can
apply eg Risk Management
• Consistent but flexible organisation
model, eg ‘Double Hatting’
• Scaleable systems eg Cost Management
System
18. 18Page6-Nov-12
Consideration 3:
Being in Control not Being Controlled!
How to obtain global consistency
whilst still giving flexibility to
operate in many different
environments?
21. 21Page6-Nov-12
Approach 3:
Being in Control not Being Controlled!
• Corporate Procedures and Local
Work Instructions
• If not a ‘Must Do’ then its Guidance
• Educate people to make their own
decisions within the framework of
Corporate requirements
• Keep it simple, eg WBS
23. 23Page6-Nov-12
Approach 4:
People
• Gain Knowledge eg Survey
• RAG status each office
• Readiness Assessments prior to
change
• Local ‘Champions’
• Use ‘Moments of Truth’
24. 24Page6-Nov-12
Consideration 5:
‘The Sun Never Sets……!’
Dealing with the logistical issues of
a Global Solution:
• Timezones
• National Requirements
• National Custom and Practice
• Travel
25. 25Page6-Nov-12
Approach 5:
‘The Sun Never Sets……!’
• Make best use of technology
• Comms, Comms, Comms….!
• Get involved in key appointments
• Plan your roll-out carefully
• Involve people
