This program will also explore various stages of EPC projects, from bidding and EPC contract management to risk and quality management, providing you with deep insights into the processes and complexities involved in each phase and equipping you with the essential skills required for effectively managing complex EPC projects.
Throughout the program, participants will also discover sophisticated risk management strategies to preempt potential issues and ensure robust project outcomes. You will master the use of Earned Value Management for project monitoring and control and employ advanced reporting tools and performance indicators to help you navigate through the project execution stages, including engineering, procurement, construction, and closing. Participants will also develop strategic decision-making skills through lessons on feasibility studies, stakeholder management, and critical path planning that will help you understand the intricacies involved in managing large-scale EPC projects.
