Contractors deal with projects that are unique in terms of scope, risks, working conditions and customer expectations. Whether building and installing a large-scale system or working with an architect to design a new system, timelines are tight, the margin for error is small, and the work has to be coordinated with other parties. To complicate matters, the contractor may be supporting multiple projects concurrently, thus spreading time and resources thin, This workshop focuses on the special challenges of managing projects under these difficult circumstances, giving contractor personnel the skills they need to effectively plan, manage, and organize their projects, while minimizing surprises and missed deadlines.
