Total Project Management

Introduction

The rate at which projects are growing in size and complexity is continuously increasing. As such, the importance of improving the way we manage projects, from planning through execution, to final hand-over, is now more crucial than ever before. Through the use of advanced technologies, coupled with increased multi-national collaborations, the demand on production, safety, and quality continues to grow to levels that were previously considered unachievable. This has resulted in the way in which projects are managed needing to take a quantum leap forward.
