Innovation Project Management: Virtual In-House Training Companies need growth for survival. Companies cannot grow simply through cost reduction and reengineering efforts. This program describes the relationship that needs to be established between innovation, business strategy, and project management to turn a creative idea into a reality. We will explore the importance of identifying the components of an innovative culture, existing differences, challenges, and the new set of skills needed in innovation project management. Companies need growth for survival. Companies cannot grow simply through cost reduction and reengineering efforts. Innovation is needed and someone must manage these innovation projects. Over the past two decades, there has been a great deal of literature published on innovation and innovation management. Converting a creative idea into reality requires projects and some form of project management. Unfortunately, innovation projects, which are viewed as strategic projects, may not be able to be managed using the traditional project management philosophy we teach in our project management courses. There are different skill sets needed, different tools, and different life-cycle phases. Innovation varies from industry to industry and even companies within the same industry cannot come to an agreement on how innovation project management should work. This program describes the relationship that needs to be established between innovation, business strategy, and project management to turn a creative idea into a reality. We will explore the importance of identifying the components of an innovative culture, existing differences, challenges, and the new set of skills needed in innovation project management.

About this Training Course The two elements which consistently remain in the forefront of every executive, tasked to manage a project, are 'Cost' and 'Time'. There is probably no disagreement or a need to prove that a strong correlation exists between Cost and Schedule. The mechanics of capturing cost during the execution is not that difficult a task, as it is when undertaking Design, Engineering, Estimating, Planning, Scheduling, and seeking financing for the project. The corporate management is expected to provide realistic, reliable and risks adjusted projections of a project's overall financial performance. This 3 full-day course and workshop is developed to make the delegates walk through the engineering formulas and equations to become a professional in managing estimates, projections, risks, uncertainties and secure financing for high value, high risk projects, from both On-shore and Offshore Oil & Gas industry segments. This course can also be offered through Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) format. Training Objectives Objectives of this Training Course: This course and the workshops are developed for the participants to gain comprehensive understanding of the field of Cost Engineering and its impact on the project execution, financing and risk management.

Project Quality Management: Virtual In-House Training In today's environment, quality is the responsibility of everyone. Project success is no longer just the fulfillment of a project on schedule, on budget, and within the scope. Today, projects aren't successful unless the customer's needs are met at the highest level of quality at the lowest cost to the organization. Project Managers must know customer needs, and manage to them throughout the project lifecycle, in order to gain acceptance. Project Quality Management provides an interactive, hands-on environment for participants to practice identification of critical quality requirements (quality planning), fulfillment of those requirements through well-designed processes (Quality Assurance), and statistical awareness of technical specifications of project deliverables (Quality Control). What You Will Learn You'll learn how to: Plan for higher quality project deliverables Measure key performance indicators on projects, processes, and products Turn data into useful project information Take action on analyzed data that will drive down non-value-added costs and drive up customer acceptance and satisfaction Reduce defects and waste in current project management processes Foundation Concepts Quality Defined Customer Focus Financial Focus Quality Management Process Management Cost of Quality Planning for Quality Project Manager Role in Planning Voice of the Customer Quality Management Plan Measurement System Accuracy Data Gathering Data Sampling Manage Quality Process Management Process Mapping Process Analysis Value Stream Mapping Standardization Visual Workplace and 5S Error Proofing (Poka-Yoke) Failure Mode and Effect Analysis Control Quality The Concept of Variation Common Cause Special Cause Standard Business Reports Tracking Key Measurements Control Charts Data Analysis Variation Root Cause Analysis Variance Management Designing for Quality
