Vice President Saybrook Associates Providence, Rhode Island
Presentation Description: In this presentation we will present the steps needed to manage complex renewable projects. The key premise is projects should be developed not in terms of efforts, but outcomes. OSW projects (COP development and submission, on and offshore construction, permitting, etc.) are dependent upon large groups of stakeholders and supply chains coming together as a team to complete projects on time and on budget. In many instances, major projects begin without the development of frameworks that are inclusive and modeled to the outcomes expected.
Saybrook has developed a process for reducing project risk, increasing success and creating project frameworks that can serve as a model for managing outcomes. In our experience, we have found that the downfall of projects is not technology, its communications, coordination and control. We will discuss how to build these into project management which lead to outcomes that are predictable, cost effective and completed in less time.
The methodology we use is Map, Model, Measure and Manage. The value of each is that informs a process and creates frameworks that can be followed by stakeholders, supply chain partners and internal resources to ensure deadline and budgets are met.
Learning Objectives:
Initiate projects that have agreed upon goals and outcomes that become the basis of modeling project workflows leading to successful outcomes
Create workflows and project frameworks that incorporate stakeholders and supply chain into the delivery of successful outcomes.
Ascertain project risk points and build contingencies prior to the start of the project thereby reducing budget and resources risks.
