Key Challenges of the Project

Risks of Mega Projects

Megaprojects are complex and fragile.
Technical & organisational complexity.
Stakeholder attention.
Experience is limited.
Cost and schedule targets are a key success factor.
Mut have the right resources and focus them.
Equipment & material lead in times have increased as new projects increase demand.
Capacity of the industry has stretched as the number of megaprojects has increased.
The industry is starting to see the impact of the significant loss of experienced staff.
There are new players in the client and contractor side.
Industry's focus tends to be on lowest cost rather than value.
Industry cost & schedule performance is declining.

Managing Risk

A good project definition in the early stages of the project adds significant project value.
