1 Day
4 Hours

WHO SHOULD TAKE THIS COURSE

This course is designed for:

  • Construction project professionals who want a practical framework for defining and controlling project scope before work begins
  • Project managers, estimators, and field leaders looking to reduce cost overruns, schedule delays, and rework tied to incomplete front-end planning
  • Professionals who may be interested in pursuing further project management training or certification

WHAT YOU LEARN

  1. Why incomplete front-end planning is one of the most consistent causes of cost overruns, schedule delays, and rework on construction jobs
  2. How a change to one project constraint, cost, schedule, or scope, can affect the other two, and how to communicate that tradeoff to a client or project team
  3. The origin, purpose, and structure of the Project Definition Rating Index (PDRI), and how to use it to score a project’s scope definition, identify gaps, and build an action plan to close them before construction begins

WHAT YOU GAIN

4 hours of instructor-led training on construction scope definition and front-end planning

Practical tools and templates for scoring project scope and communicating constraint tradeoffs to clients and project teams
