SUMMARY:Rice Global Forum Monthly Roundtable “What Makes a Great Project” Sept 16 – Houston
DESCRIPTION:This Event Reminder is Sponsored by:\n\nFriday, September 16, 2022\n11:15 am – 12:00 pm Registration & Networking\n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm Lunch & Program (live and streamed via Zoom)\nIf you are attending this meeting virtually, the program will be streamed via Zoom from 12:00 – 1:00 pm. A link will be sent to you 24 hours prior to the meeting.\nTopic:\n“What Makes a Great Project?”\n\nThis presentation is based on a survey among executives in project-based businesses. The objective of the survey, including subsequent interviews, is to determine exactly what project companies are doing well. We asked Project Executives: what makes a great project, what works best for their project portfolio and what is their strategy for executing a string of successful projects?\nThe responders included Owners, EPC, Engineering, Construction, Service Companies and System providers within Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Utility, General Industry, Mining, Medical, IT, Defense and Aerospace. The common denominator among all these companies is that they all run complex projects and they have a project executive overseeing the project portfolio.\nTopics include:\n\nthe importance of the project manager and the team\nscalability and repeatability of project success\nfront-end planning, digitalization and standardization\ncollaboration, agility and contracting strategies\nbest practice and lean principles\n\nThe takeaway of this presentation is about real best practice. What are the novel ideas being applied and which ones are just a fad? Project businesses are by nature very different from each other, so look for lessons learned that are meaningful to your business. However, clarity and cohesion tends to be common to all top performers. Learn how they make that happen.\nSpeaker:\n\nErik Wiik, President, ReAdapt, Inc.\n\nMr. Wiik is the President of ReAdapt Inc., an engineering company serving the Energy Industry.
