COURSE OVERVIEW
Developing a realistic and executable project plan goes hand in hand with a project schedule that is based on solid estimates of resources and work durations, including the ability to monitor and control progress and expenditure efficiently. It is important to treat estimating, scheduling and cost control as an integrated process rather than a disjointed set of activities.
This 5-day training course on Project Coordination, Management & Cost Control will provide participants with a proven set of critical methods, processes, tools, and techniques to integrate the relevant processes and will enable delegates to:
- Master important project planning and control techniques
- Develop effective performance monitoring and control systems
- Measure, forecast, and control project performance and progress
- Produce clear and concise project progress reports and administer project documentation and reporting
- Effectively manage schedule and technical risks and perform contingency planning
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
By attending the Project Coordination, Management & Cost Control training course, delegates will learn how to:
- Integrate scope, time, resources and cost management
- Develop project network diagrams (CPM) and do advanced PERT calculations
- Maintain continuous project performance and delivery control
- Compress the schedule when required by adverse circumstances
- Apply a dynamic risk mitigation process to reduce risk
- Apply the process of linear scheduling to repetitive project activities
- Develop a project recovery plan for budget and schedule overruns
TARGET AUDIENCE
The Project Coordination, Management & Cost Control training course is designed for:
- Project Professionals and Project Leaders
- Project Planning and Scheduling Staff
- Project Team Members
- Other business services staff who have the responsibility of planning and controlling project schedules and costs in client and contracting companies
TRAINING METHODOLOGY
Delegates attending the Project Coordination, Management & Cost Control training course will develop critical project management performance and control skills and knowledge through formal and interactive learning methods. The training course includes team projects, applicable case studies, group discussions and critical analyses of video material based on actual large construction projects.
This brand new course will significantly enhance the skills and knowledge of delegates and improve their ability to plan, schedule, estimate, and control projects. The material has been designed to enable delegates to apply all of the material with immediate effect at the office.
Pre & Post course assessments will be used to measure the effectiveness of this training.
