In the fast-changing construction industry, agile and lean strategies are redefining projects. The main directives are founded on iterative, client-centric, and waste-minimizing approaches, which allow for projects to not only be completed, but also optimized for efficiency and excellence.
There are some common notions about safety that are cause for pause. You will often hear it spoken about as a separate thing, like it’s “done” by a safety department. Or it’s cast as a priority, something that you might be able to trade off with other objectives. It shouldn’t be any of these things.
Corruption poses a significant challenge to society, but an anticorruption toolkit aimed at project-based organizations helps to effectively implement and monitor anticorruption measures.
Construction projects often experience delays and cost overruns. To establish reliable and predictable commitments, we must address the art and science of communication.

Within each of these are a lot of detailed considerations. You must plan for them and ensure that they are ready before mobilizing into construction.
This year’s PMI Global Summit in Atlanta helped project managers focus on how they can train themselves to meet the coming needs of employers—which involves three key themes we should all be aware of.
One of the most complex functions large PMOs manage is the prioritization of the organization’s portfolio of projects. Thankfully, artificial intelligence capabilities offer ways to create scenarios that provide helpful options.

Question: While the way we exchange information in meetings is important, are there guidelines and examples of ways to have people work together if they are not in IT—or in a cubicle? Some manufacturing workplaces are loud and action packed and need creative ways to exchange data and ideas. Can you help me?
For decades, predictive project management approaches have been applied with success. But now more than ever, more flexible (and faster) decisions are required in complex construction projects—where change of scope is frequent, and the need for new factories is crucial to remain competitive.
