Registration of participants of the conference on project management has started

The conference speakers will include leading Russian and international experts in project management and cost engineering, representatives of the largest project-oriented enterprises, self-regulatory organizations construction industry, leading professional associations and universities that train specialists in this field.

The organizers named as key themes of the event:

Engineering consulting as decision support. The role of a consulting engineer in construction is to control the quality of decisions, control the functionality of the object that is created in the project, ensure a balance of risks and interests of project participants.
Value engineering as an integration ideology, and not just as a methodology for determining the cost or value of strategic assets and the programs and projects that create them. How to correctly calculate NPV in projects?
Quality management - as a three-tier model from on-site quality control, to the application of the fourth-level schedules to ensure the correct technology for performing work, and finally to systemic quality assurance when system-by-system delivery is tracked object equipment and you do not have to patch holes during commissioning.
Moderation as a technique for introducing the methodology of project management in particular and management in general. Facilitation, framing and other approaches to launching strategic asset management systems, projects and programs.
State support for project management - how does it affect the development of the Public Private Partnership (PPP), and what is the interest of private business in project management in government agencies and vice versa.
Earned value methodology - myth or reality of project management? How does it work when expanding the scope of the project to the efficient operation of strategic assets?
Are risks compensated from profit or from turnover? How to “de-energize” corruption schemes: by introducing accounting and control or the right motivation tuned to the end result for the majority of participants?
Maturity in project management. What happens if maturity is measured by different metrics - the Babylonian pandemonium or the Apocalypse? Long live the TCM maturity assessment!

The conference will be completed by the second visiting Russian workshop of the International Association for the Development of Cost Engineering AACE International - Moscow Workshop-2017, which will be held at the same venue on June 1. This specialized event with the participation of the management and leading assessors of AACE International will be opened by the new president of the association - John Livengood, Managing Director of NAVIGANT.
