Plant Construction Management Seminar

Good construction management means that outcomes are predictable. This seminar is a survival guide that provides economic guidance and support to those involved in the management of plant construction activities, whether these activities are the building of a new plant or modification of existing plant components. The processes, checklists, matrices, and abstracts provided in this seminar have been developed by a seasoned plant construction manager with over 30 years of experience. Your new motto after this seminar will be "Surprises are not acceptable."
