Course Overview

A schedule for nuclear power station projects without a critical path is a wish list with dates. Projects involving station projects are rarely late all at once; they are late a day at a time. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for the practice within project and portfolio delivery, not for observers of it. The course sets out a working method for nuclear power station projects that participants can apply the week they return. The difficulty is not agreeing that this part of project and portfolio delivery matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in station projects rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better nuclear power station projects is rarely technical. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on station projects and revise it on evidence. The final module sets out how progress on the wider project and portfolio delivery agenda will be evidenced six months later.

Agree the first three actions on station projects that will be taken on returning to work.

05

Recover nuclear power station projects when it is behind, without pretending it is not.

06

Plan handover and benefit realisation for station projects.

07

Identify and quantify the risks to nuclear power station projects and assign owners.

Session 2Building lasting competence in station projects

  • Plan the sequence in which improvements to nuclear power station projects will be introduced.
  • Build the competence framework that supports station projects.

03

Station projects: estimating cost and effort

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1The risks to station projects nobody wants to raise

  • Build the work breakdown for station projects to a level that can be estimated.
  • Review at each gate whether nuclear power station projects should continue at all.
  • Compare resource demand from station projects against other commitments.
04

  • Register the risks to station projects with owner, probability and impact.
  • Prepare the recovery plan for nuclear power station projects before it is needed.
  • Establish who is informed, consulted and accountable in station projects.

Session 2Pricing every change to station projects

  • Write the scope statement for nuclear power station projects including explicit exclusions.
  • Record the rationale for each significant choice made about station projects.
  • Benchmark the organisation's nuclear power station projects against comparable operations.
  • Define how the benefit from station projects will be measured after closure.
