Topic Synopsis:
As energy, industrial, and infrastructure owners undertake unprecedented capital construction initiatives, they rely on their PMO and key parts of their organization to effectively orchestrate delivery.
The reality is that, often, owners are not ready. They are not organized or sophisticated enough to deliver new or larger than normal construction portfolios or mega projects. It’s not their core business. They don’t have the people, processes, and tools. And unfortunately, often, they come to realize this when it’s too late.
Research continues to show that the main reason why projects fail is poor communication, especially at the organization-level, which starts with governance within the project owner, which actions -or inactions- cause a “domino effect” to the rest of the capital project process and stakeholders involved.

Learning Objectives: 

• Common cross-discipline/departmental issues created by poor portfolio/project governance
• 10 Key Actions Capital Project Owners Must Take Prior and During Project Execution
• Two real examples of Owners’ Portfolio Readiness Assessment and Project Governance
