Our society will host several events throughout the year to encourage professional development, knowledge exchange, and community building.
How to Prepare a Good Programme: From the Baseline to a Practical Project Management Tool
How confident are you that your programme truly reflects the way your project will be built? Does it serve as both a contractual baseline and a practical management tool — or merely as a schedule for submission and approval? This lecture will explore how to develop realistic baselines, establish logical sequencing, and apply proper resource loading to create programmes that are not only compliant with contract requirements but also usable for day-to-day project control.
By understanding how to prepare a robust and dynamic programme, stakeholders can gain clarity, improve communication, and ensure that the schedule becomes a powerful management and evidentiary tool rather than a contractual formality.

Cost and schedule risk analysis: Putting deterministic costs and schedules into perspective
As a contractor, what is the probability you will finish your multiyear and multi-million project on time and on budget? As an employer, what is the probability you will have enough contingency in your budget to complete the project? While these questions may now seem as though they are impossible to answer with any degree of certainty, the aim of these lectures will be to show how with the help of statistics and Monte Carlo simulations they actually can be answered!
It will also be shown how stakeholders can acquire powerful insight not only into the effect of risks on their schedule and budget, but also of the specific risks threatening their schedule and budget. Without these insights it is impossible to know where to focus efforts and resources in order to eliminate or mitigate the effects of these risks.
