Course Overview

Projects involving remote road network projects are rarely late all at once; they are late a day at a time. Most recovery effort on network projects is spent on problems that were visible early. It suits anyone whose decisions touch this part of project and portfolio delivery, in large organisations and small ones alike. A common pattern is strong design of remote road network projects paired with weak follow-through. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a delivery plan for this area of project and portfolio delivery as they go. The programme is built to be used, and every section of network projects it covers ends in something applicable. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in remote road network projects before they become incidents. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place network projects among the areas with the widest performance spread. Participants leave with a plan for the project and portfolio delivery discipline sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
