Common characteristics of Mega Projects

What does the PMBOK® Says ?

• Programs are not large projects. A very large project may be referred to as a megaproject*

• As a guideline, megaprojects cost US$1billionor more, affect 1 million or more people, and run for years.*

PMBOK is a registered Mark of the Project Management institute, Inc.

• There has been a significant growth inmegaprojects in the past several years,particularly in the areas of infrastructuredevelopment and engineering projects.Multibillion-dollar projects are now common.

Why Mega Projects ?

Bornstein, L. (2010). Mega-projects, city-building and community benefits. City, Culture and Society, 1(4), 199-206.

• Are seen as transformative, placing a city on theworld stage and thereby attracting visitors,investment, jobs, and, ultimately, a higher qualityof life for residents.

• They often bring together efforts to redevelop theurban fabric with the promotion of economicdevelopment.

Why Mega Projects ?

The Past and Present of Megaprojects , Project Management Journal , 1 December 2017

Megaprojects can be viewed as some of the most interesting phenomena in social science. They represent the major achievements by collectives to influence the progress and direction of society and the mustering of collective strength to infuse major institutional change.

Indeed, launching a megaproject is a way of getting attention, a way of getting things done. A way of creating dreams and high aspirations.

Planning

The Planning Challenges

• Large Number of Projects at the Same Time

• Large number of Stakeholders

• Complex Project Structures

• Impossible Deadlines!

Common planning issues thatface majority of megaprojects

• Duration and Cost are underestimated• Contingencies are set too low• Changes in project specifications and

designs are not sufficiently taken into account,

1. Develop an overall Projects Strategy

2. Establish an Enterprise Program Management Office EPMO

3. Use a robust Portfolio Management System

4. Establish Project Management Offices at different levels

5. Use an Electronic Project Tracking System with Dashboards

Handling a large number of Projects at the Same Time

Managing a Large Number of Stakeholders

Client must develop its own Project Management Plan covering:• Integration of the work of the different

stakeholders• Studying the effects of any changes on all

stakeholders , and on Value Creation.

Managing Complex Projects

• Complex Projects should be treated as a Portfolio of Programs, Projects and related technical work

Meeting Impossible Deadlines

• Anything is acceptable except not meeting the deadline

• Lock all players in a room till they develop a workable plan

• Consider activities of all stakeholders and their interdependencies

Mega Projects Complexity

Misinformation

• Misinformation undermines Parliament’s ability to exercise democratic control.

• The central challenge when defining decision-making processes for mega projects is to create incentives that deliver more reliable information – particularly in the early stages.

Tendering & Contract Management

Tendering & Contract Management Challenges

• Multiple Contractors & Consultants

• Many Changes and Variations

• Taking the Right Decisions at the Right Time

!

Multiple Contractors and Consultants• Clear Organization chart for the Project

• Develop strong communications management plans

• Keep informal channels of communications open

• Regular Visits by top management the site

Many Changes and Variations

• Robust Change Management System

• Any and All Changes through the System

• Non-traditional negotiation methods

• Changing contracting processes.

• Increasingly, the contractor works closely with the client in the procurement process to take advantage of discounts through quantity purchases or other special considerations.

• For these projects, the use of internationally recognized standard contract forms is increasing in order to reduce problems and claims during execution.

Construction

• Mobile Scaffolding on Main Roads.

• Use top down approach for Underground construction

• Factory Assembly and On-site installation

Construction in Congested Areas

Lessons

Lessons Learned (1)• The Leaders of Mega Projects must :

– Have strong unwavering vision– Have High determination for Success– Own A positive can-do attitude at all times– Have The Ability to make the right decisions

at the right time– Influence on everyone working on the project– Be bold in negotiations

Lessons Learned (2)• Mega Projects must be managed as a portfolio of

projects, programs and related technical works

• Pay enough attention to Scope Definition , and also scope updates against Value Creation.

• Rigorous value engineering is required at several stages.

• Investigate and evaluate Innovative Design Techniques and construction methods whenever and wherever possible. Use the most suitable technologies not necessarily the latest

Lessons Learned (3)• The client should :

• Ensure that the integrated Project schedule covers all technical disciplines scope, in addition to governance, and logistic requirements, and covers all stakeholders involvement.

• Audit the work of the Engineer and the Project Management Company

• Monitor the site work on a regular basis• Ensure that Comprehensive and rigorous

systemic risk management• Ensure robust collaboration among partners

Lessons Learned (4)

•Vision determines the direction of the project.

•Leadership determines the success of the project.

•Relationships determine the morale of the project.

Everything rises and falls on Leadership
