The success of your organization often depends on how efficiently you deliver a product or service.

For most of us, we manage this effort with some kind of scheduling software—typically Microsoft Project.

But just because you implement a scheduling program, it does not guarantee successful project outcomes.

You can survey your project managers or schedule owners, but you still may not find the reasons why some projects achieve a successful outcome and why others do not.

Auditing a schedule is a great way to evaluate a schedule, capture lessons learned from projects, and determine how to improve the success of your organization.

Cindy’s objective in this webinar is to discuss scheduling audits, provide examples of what these audits might reveal, and provide suggestions to get started with auditing in your organization.

Learn:

• How audits drive consistency and show opportunities for schedule efficiency;
• How to ensure a visible critical path and verify resource workloads are properly loaded;
• The #1 mistake organizations make monitoring progress and how to fix it;
• Why missing baseline information prevents lessons learned.

In this session David Mosey (LinkedIn profile) will explore the new FAC-1 Framework Alliance Contract, highlighting new ways to create integrated frameworks whilst improving value and working effectively with the supply chain.

Case studies from the UK Ministry of Justice, Surrey County Council and Futures Housing Group (the first adopters of the FAC-1 form) will help you learn why this new contract is becoming the contract of our time and was described by delegates in a previous PMI webinar as “state of the art”.

King’s College London Centre of Construction Law created the new FAC-1 standard form after 12 months of consultation with over 120 organizations in 14 countries, leading up to its publication in June 2016. The published form is already in use, has been presented at many international forums and is being translated for use into 5 other languages.

Case studies will show you how clients and teams can improve value under a framework or alliance, using connected projects to build on their experience and establish more integrated systems. FAC-1 makes this easier for all parties and creates a transnational basis for improved working practices.

FAC-1 is not a new building contract form, and instead is designed to connect any one or more existing building contract forms including:

• any national or international building and engineering contract forms including FIDIC
• any national or international consultant appointments.

Project Management topics covered:

• Procurement Strategy
• Contract Management
• Project Governance
• Collaborative Working & Effective Communication

Many organizations are planning a move to Microsoft Office 365 or Google’s G Suite due to vendor pressure or a desire to devote fewer internal resources to email and other collaboration tools.

But a cloud office can also provide important new capabilities that support employee engagement, consumerization and a more agile work environment – in other words, a digital workplace initiative.

Discussion Topics:

• Why organizations are considering a transition to cloud office
• How a cloud office deployment can change the work experience
• How cloud office capabilities can support a digital workplace initiative

Presenter: Jeffrey Mann, (LinkedIn profile) IT Industry Analyst & Research VP for Gartner.  Jeffrey’s specialties are collaboration, social software, unified communications and collaboration.

So you know the fundamentals of training evaluation. It’s time to take it to another level.

Never before has there been so much interesting in demonstrating the impact and return on investment in training programs as there is today.

In fact, according to ATD/ROI Institute research, impact data and the financial ROI are the number 1 and 2 types of data senior executives want to see.

Learn how to:

• Demonstrate the real impact of your program
• Isolate the effects of your program
• Convert data to money
• Tabulate the fully-loaded costs of your program
• Calculate the ROI
