Peter RapinSubject Matter Expect; Project Delivery| Independent ConsultantOntario, Canada
My interest is in risk-driven project management vs process driven. The objective of project management is to mitigate risk and enhance benefits as is the role of the project manager and the entire project staff. Yet we seem to forget that and immediately focus on process. In my opinion a project, once contemplated, should start with a risk management plan including a risk/benefit analysis (typically detailed in a risk/benefit register). Every action, process, decision from that point on is then to be based on the risk analysis. The prime element of project management is risk management, all other project elements are subservient to the risk management plan. I see risk-driven project management as the basis of a successful project delivery. It takes us from the Traditional (bureaucratic) construction delivery model to Lean construction delivery and beyond. Can anyone direct me to discussion papers, blogs or groups that can help me define, debunk or advance my hypotheses? I should mention that my interest is with delivering infrastructure projects involving design and construction. Saving Changes...
