Download or read book Early Equipment Management EEM written by Dennis McCarthy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When capital projects fail to deliver, it is usually not due to technical reasons but a combination of behavioral pitfalls, unclear accountabilities and gaps in design, specification, and/or project-management processes. Early Equipment Management (EEM): Continuous Improvement for Projects explains how well known and award winning organizations avoid these weaknesses by using: Project road maps setting out clear accountabilities for each step of the concept-to-project-delivery process; Progressive design goals for each step to assure the delivery of low life-cycle costs; Processes to codify tacit knowledge, reveal latent design weaknesses, and build high performance cross-functional team collaboration; Project governance processes that systematically raise their organizations ability to reduce time to market for new assets, products and services with higher added value and fewer resources. Hence the books title of continuous improvement for projects. The word Early in EEM refers to the principle of trapping problems as early as possible in the project process when they are cheapest to resolve. That makes EEM relevant to all projects even those that have past the design stages. To support the use of EEM at any project step, the author has designed each chapter as a standalone topic with cross references to other chapters where relevant. This book:- Explains The six EEM project delivery steps setting out the tasks and accountabilities for project teams, project managers and steering committees at each step; How to organize projects to increase project added value through the collaboration of commercial, operational and technology stakeholders The wiring up behind behaviors that contribute to the failure of traditional project management approaches and how to avoid those pitfalls; The use of projects as a vehicle for the development of internal talent and increase capital project added value The systematic development of internal capabilities to deliver flawless operation from day one in less time with less resources How raising project governance capability directly impacts on company wide management competence Uses case studies to explain how to implement the EEM methodology and Describes how EEM principles and techniques applied to product and service development (Early Product Management) multiplies the gains from EEM. This book shows readers how and why EEM works so that they can design their own EEM road map and continuous improvement process for projects.
Download or read book Management of Nuclear Power Plant Projects written by IAEA and published by International Atomic Energy Agency. This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Member States intending to introduce a nuclear power programme will need to pass through several phases during the implementation. Experience shows that careful planning of the objectives, roles, responsibilities, interfaces and tasks to be carried out in different phases of a nuclear project is important for success. This publication presents a harmonized approach that may be used to structure the owner/operator management system and establish and manage nuclear projects and their development activities irrespective of the adopted approach. It has been developed from shared management practices and consolidated experiences provided by nuclear project management specialists through a series of workshops and working groups organized by the IAEA. The resultant publication presents a useful framework for the management of nuclear projects from initiation to closeout and captures international best practices.

Download or read book Public IT Investment written by Dr. Abdullah Ali Al-Hatmi and published by Partridge Singapore. This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The frequent failure of IT projects in the public sector suggests that significant underlying problems remain unsolved. IT projects typically involve a substantial commitment of resources and funds; consequently, project failure can result in the loss of not just the funds invested, but also of the benefits that would have been realized by successful implementation. The delivery of IT projects on time and on budget is inadequate to measure value realization. This research analyzes five Strategic Alignment (SA) perspectives that affect organizational performance in an Australian public agency when implementing IT projects: Organization Strategy (S), Knowledge (K), Decision-making (DM), Enterprise Architecture (EA) and Public Value Plan (PVP).This book shows how public IT decision-makers can realize the benefits of IT investment by effectively employing SA perspectives in IT management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although most federal facilities projects are successfully completed (i.e., they reasonably meet the agency's requirements and expectations), the perception is that development of the scope of work for design for these projects is challenging and in some cases poorly performed. Based on this perception, a study was commissioned by the Federal Facilities Council (FFC) of the National Research Council to identify the elements that should be included in a scope of work for design to help ensure that the resulting facility is one that supports the fulfillment of a federal agency's program or mission. Its objectives also included identifying key practices for developing effective scopes of work for design involving new construction or major renovation projects and identifying key practices for matching the scope of work with the acquisition strategy, given a range of project delivery systems and contract methods.
Download or read book Analysis of Project Management Attributes for the Successful Delivery of Capital Facility Projects written by Sung Joon Suk and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 726 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary goal of this research is to provide quantitative information used for the implementation of project management attributes. Nineteen project management attributes and five project performance outcomes were investigated to examine their relationships. A series of statistical analyses were conducted to quantify the relationships between the implementation levels of the attributes and the probabilities for better project performance. The analyses utilized data from 212 projects collected by the Construction Industry Institute (CII) Benchmarking and Metric database from 2007 through 2010. The results showed that the beneficial effects of project management attributes varied depending on the implementation levels of project management attributes, the performance outcome type, and whether the project was conducted by the owner or contractor organization. Quantified analysis results were provided by this research. Project management attributes were identified as critical if they were found to be significantly related to a particular performance outcome. Minimum implementation levels were provided for these critical attributes, as were results covering the combined effects of the critical attributes on performance outcomes. Based on the analysis results, the research generated specific and quantitative information used in implementing project management attributes for better performance. This information will help practitioners achieve improved project performance in the most effective and efficient way, and thus it is the practical contribution of this research. From an academic point of view, this study designed a data analysis process by a series of statistical analysis methods which makes it possible to examine the relationships between project management attributes and various project performance outcomes in a quantitative manner.
