Investors and managers of major projects know how often they result
in cost overruns and schedule delays. Risk Navigation Strategies
for Major Capital Projects builds on conventional best practice to
provide a risk-based view of current practices for planning and
executing large international projects. As economies of scale
continue to drive projects to ever-higher levels of scope and
complexity, new thinking about strategy and risk is required. Since
major projects are highly exposed to external risks, the
traditional view of predictability as something that can be
mandated and ensured by rigorous application of conventional best
practice has become a myth. Fresh thinking is required to manage
projects today, and this book provides a framework for taking
project management best practice to the next level. Risk Navigation
Strategies for Major Capital Projects is intended for executives
investing in major projects, project leaders and managers, as well
as those with a teaching or research interest in project and risk
management.

ESG is a powerful concept that combines expectations for
environmental (E) and social (S) benefits with effective governance
(G), to ensure those benefits are achieved. How can project teams
manage ESG with the same discipline, structure, and consistency
that characterize the way they manage safety, cost, schedule, and
quality? The answer lies in doing what teams do best: breaking down
the problem into manageable chunks, setting up a process everyone
can follow, working together to develop a plan to which all players
can commit, and then executing that plan. This Guide is a
methodology for doing exactly that. It is a workbook, filled with
predefined worksheets to be completed for each project. It provides
a structure for planning workshops to address each aspect of an ESG
plan. In addition to its use by project teams, this Guide can also
be used by executives, investors, lenders, or government agencies
as part of due diligence to ensure plans are in place to meet or
exceed ESG requirements and expectations.
