Project Time Management....The Big Opportunity Your Missing?!
Allergate House, Belmont Business Park, Durham
In these difficult times, every organisation needs to find ways of improving performance and results. In our projects-based industry, the way we mange time is currently a significant failing and an opportunity that is currently being missed.
In an industry suffering from reduced budgets, poor procurement policies, skills shortages and the further erosion of already slim profit margins, gasping such an opportunity could be the difference between success and failure, thriving or just surviving, perhaps even surviving or not!
Experienced specialists from Spectrum Consulting and Athena Project Services will outline how an effective method of ’Managing Time in Projects’ can deliver:
- Increased revenue, reduced costs and improved profits
- Maximised resource efficiency and productivity
- Elimination of lost time and contractual issues
- Elimination of acceleration and overrun costs
- Elimination of the cost of contract claims and legal fees
- Proof of entitlement and secured monies owed
- Increased capabilities, improved performance, enhanced reputation and customer retention
Since increased costs and disputes are principally centred on time, good project time management is an obvious essential. It is crystal clear that a real problem exists, and the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) has taken a leadership role in examining and analysing just why that is. The CIOB has conducted research, analysed it carefully and compiled a range of good advice about the power of best practices.
The presentation will build on the research conducted by the CIOB and the best practice guide that has now been produced to offer direct action for your organisation. This includes the credential structures currently being established and the supporting range of professional development services now available. Clarity will be provided on how organisations can benefit from a understanding:
- The problem:
What’s the scale of problem across the industry at large and more specifically what’s the scale of the problem in your business?
- The opportunity:
What would it mean to your business if your projects were all delivered on time?
- How to address the problem and the opportunity:
What’s being done to correct project time management problems in your business and across the industry at large?
- What assistance is available:
Going forward, how would you begin to address the problems towards the most value-added solutions?
