Emma meets Paul Kidston and Carolyn Browning to discuss project controls. The pair are co-authors, along with others, of the new APM book, Project Controls in the 21st Century, available at apm.org.uk/book-shop/project-controls-in-the-21st-century/Listen on to find out why project controllers should actually be called ‘truth tellers' and how, in project controls, you need to have both an eye for the technical details and be able to step back and join the strategic dots. But what really matters is the ability to be adept at the people side of things, like communicating well, problem-solving and being a leader who creates the best kind of project culture.Contact us: apmpodcast@thinkpublishing.co.uk

https://youtu.be/Fka2npq2Kjg Marcus Hamaker, CEO of [bu:st] USA, is driven by a passion for helping small businesses find their pursuit of value by simplifying projects, optimizing processes, and streamlining operations for sustainable growth. We learn about Marcus's journey from growing up in a family business to leading [bu:st] USA, where he applies lean principles to help organizations improve alignment, communication, and execution. He explains the 5 Steps to Finding Value framework—Organizational Alignment, Communication, SOPs, Change Management, and Project Controls—guiding businesses to remove inefficiencies and drive sustainable growth. He also shares how the Boost Method ensures teams operate with clarity and purpose, emphasizing fastest time to value as a key metric for success. He highlights key leadership lessons and the mindset shifts entrepreneurs need to scale effectively. --- Pursuit Value with Marcus Hamaker Good day, dear listeners. Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint Podcast. And my guest today is Marcus Hamaker, the CEO of [bu:st] USA, a consulting firm that helps you simplify your projects, optimize your processes and streamline your organization. He is also the host of The Pursuit of Value Podcast. Marcus, welcome to the show.  Hey, Steve, how are you? Thanks for having me.  Yeah, I am super pumped to have you. It's going to be a great episode and we are going to start as usual with the 'Why', because that's what powers great entrepreneurs. They have a strong 'Why'. So what is your personal 'Why', Marcus, and what are you doing to manifest it in [bu:st] or any of your businesses? Yeah. So, my personal 'Why' is just to make companies better. Ever since I was younger, growing up in the family business, watching my dad work hard. I'm very intrigued by business and it's really interesting to me why one business can succeed exponentially and another business really struggles to get off the ground. And so what we do at [bu:st] USA, what my podcast is about, The Pursuit of Value, is really helping small businesses be better.Share on X Real simple. And I also believe that small business has the power to change the world. I believe that business is and can be the greatest force for good in the world today because of just the entity and the formation of it. Also, not only what you can do with your employees internally, but how you can embrace the environment that you're in. Wherever that's in Italy, whether it's here in the United States, you have the ability and the responsibility and the opportunity to impact wherever your business sits. And so I really love small business.  Yeah. And small businesses are always exposed to market forces and there's no way to take it easy and you always have to strive to be competitive and make a profit and definitely is a powerful force for reducing waste. And I'm making this point because one of the things that [bu:st] does is to apply Lean principles. Tell me a little bit about the [bu:st] method that your company, your group developed, and how do you bring in Lean?  Yeah, so when we talk about Lean, it really has to do with value and it has to do with defining what is valuable to the company. So what's valuable to a manufacturer might be very different to what's valuable to a service company, right? So in our [bu:st] method, we always want to start with defining the future picture. What is success to that company? Or more simply, what is the solution to the problem that they're running into? So you define the future picture, you define the targets, you build the roadmap.  And through that whole process of defining the value, you also want to throw out what's not valuable. And that's where it lines up with Lean. And we always really try to focus on making every step, every process as efficient as possible. And that's what's really important. And that's what we do really well at [bu:st] USA. 

In this episode, the conversation revolves around the role of professional bodies in project management, particularly focusing on the APM (Association for Project Management). Adam Boddison, the CEO of APM, discusses the importance of community engagement, the challenges faced by the project management profession, and the impact of AI on the industry. The discussion also touches on career development, the need for a unified approach among professional bodies, and the future of project management in a rapidly changing technological landscape. Takeaways Project management is often misunderstood and needs better representation. Community engagement is crucial for career development in project management. AI will play a significant role in the future of project management. Professional bodies like APM are essential for supporting project professionals. The definition of project success varies and needs to be clarified. There is a shortage of qualified project professionals globally. Project management should focus on people, not just processes. The APM aims to inspire communities to deliver meaningful change. Collaboration among professional bodies can benefit the project management profession. AI literacy is becoming increasingly important for project professionals.

In this episode of Navigating Major Programmes, Riccardo Cosentino sits down with fellow Oxford's Saïd Business School alumnus, Shawn Modar, to discuss why mega projects go wrong and what can be done contractually to avoid failure. The pair delve into the role psychological contracts play in the Iron Triangle. Plus, Shawn shares his Oxford dissertation findings, including a prenuptial agreement analogy you don't want to miss. “One of the interesting realizations that I had during this process is: Why would somebody intentionally not comply with their contract, knowing all those legal risks that are out there? And what I realized is when they're not complying with that written contract, they're actually complying with their psychological contract.” –  Shawn ModarShawn Modar has more than 23 years of experience in the engineering and construction industry, with the majority of that time being focused on construction claim analysis and dispute resolution. His primary focus is assisting clients in their efforts to substantiate or defend against claims for the recovery of time and additional costs, to avoid formal disputes, and to make informed decisions that result in equitable resolutions.  Key Takeaways:The risk of acting like something you're not: Relational contracts versus traditional contractsThe truth behind intentional noncompliance in megaprojectsThe benefits and downfalls of psychological contracts If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating and leave us a review on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser or Castbox.The conversation doesn't stop here—connect and converse with our community via LinkedIn:Follow Shawn Modar on LinkedInFollow Navigating Major Programmes on LinkedInFollow Riccardo Cosentino on LinkedInRead Riccardo's latest at wwww.riccardocosentino.com Music: "A New Tomorrow" by Chordial Music.

In this week's pod, we were joined by Micah Piippo to discuss Planning Projects: Past, Present & Future. Micah has spent the last 14 years in Project Controls. While he's performed a wide variety of roles, his passion and main focus is Planning and Scheduling. During his career he's tore down nuclear facilities, built large ferries, built data centers all over the world and more recently is helping Intel deliver state of the art fab capabilities. In December 2022, Micah started writing his Zero Float newsletter. In the newsletter Micah explores his favorite topics that he doesn't see getting enough attention. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: Whilst there are certifications available for schedulers. There is no degree programme that would allow students to learn the fundamentals of construction management, people management, how to use data and learning the project ecosystem. Most planners simply fall into the role The consequence of the lack of certification is a lack of respect for the skills that a good planner can bring to the organization by utilizing their experience A top level planner should have a breadth of experience as well as strong communication skills when dealing upwards and sideways within an organization Technology can help planners and project managers by having finite and usable as-built data Automated capture has helped companies to better define progress and productivity on projects. This was previously a highly subjective area There is a danger that Machine Learning / AI does not capture some of the politics around project schedules. This may affect the quality of data in future There is no mandate for government funded projects to share data despite being funded by taxpayers. This hampers the level of data available to be harnessed by machine learning technology Here are links to some of the topics we discussed: Problems with Construction Project Scheduling - https://www.plannersplace.com/blog/problems-with-construction-projects-scheduling Why Construction Scheduling is Stuck in the 1980s - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/why-construction-scheduling-stuck-1980s-micah-piippo/ Plan Rich – How to become a Senior Scheduler - https://planrich.beehiiv.com/p/beginner-winner Join us next time when we're joined by Parveen Sharma to discuss BIM and Virtual Design - disrupting the Design and Construction industry.

According to Micah Piippo, the poor state of construction projects schedules can be attributed to the six problems he sees with scheduling. linkedin.com Why Construction Scheduling is Stuck in the 1980s TL;DR – The construction industry should be embracing the power of technology to help schedulers build accurate and sophisticated project schedules. Unfortunately, the lack of innovation and motivation has left the construction field decades behind other industries. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/why-construction-scheduling-stuck-1980s-micah-piippo/ Plan Rich Beginner to Winner Learn, grow, and get rich with a career in Construction Scheduling. (70 kB) https://planrich.beehiiv.com/p/beginner-winner InEight InEight Construction Project Management Software InEight is the leader in construction project management software.

In this week's pod, we were joined by Ellen Mellington to discuss Streamlining Operations with Agile Controls: The Key to Business-As-Usual Performance. As a transformation and governance leader Ellen has delivered change portfolios and major projects in transport, healthcare and environment sectors. Having direct exposure to the challenges faced financially, culturally and commercially in delivering Public Services she has applied the right blend of governance and controls to achieve integration and collaboration. The aspect that she enjoys the most is supporting businesses to design successful operating models by connecting the dots between people, process, organisation and technology. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: - Agile processes are applicable to all projects, not just IT projects - Using waterfall processes can limit innovation within businesses - The main challenge around implementing agile controls is convincing businesses that Project Controls are a core function and not an optional extra - One of the challenges in convincing business leaders to adopt an agile mentality is that they are too reactive to change - Every organization should have a change management function Join us next time when we're joined by Micah Piippo to discuss Planning Projects: Past, Present & Future For more information, blogs or to support our charities visit www.projectchatterpodcast.com If you'd like to sponsor the podcast get in touch via our website.

In this week's pod, we were joined by Shane Forth to discuss Navigating the Project Control Landscape: A Journey Through the Decades and Beyond. Shane's project controls career began on Phillips Petroleum Teesside Oil Terminal, a 1970s mega-project. Aged 20, he learnt the fundamentals of scheduling using manual techniques. Career progression followed with three further mega-projects worth tens of billions of pounds in today's terms. This was interspersed with UK construction projects for leading mechanical contractors. In 1992, as Planning Manager for a major EPC contractor, he quickly learned two important lessons. His enthusiasm to introduce effective project controls integrating cost and schedule was out of step with senior management and a discovery of a skills gap and shortage of project controls resource. His industry leadership, uniting groups and individuals to create project controls standards, occupational certifications, career paths, competency frameworks, higher professional recognition, and especially apprenticeship programmes, may Shane's my most enduring legacy. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: The main evolutions in Project Controls are a realization around the importance of data to major projects and having a dedicated resource pool Ask the right questions, get the right answers When delivering bad news as a Project Controller, always try to de-personalise the updates Project Controllers should aim to engage the experts if they are not sure on a subject New starters to the Project Controls function should try to work on their literacy and presentational skills as these are two key competencies that will be used throughout your career Project Controls is now seen as a core function and not just an optional extra on major projects Here are links to some of the topics we discussed: Human Resource Skills for the Project Manager: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1880410419/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Handbook of People in Project Management: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/140943785X?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_thcv_0&storeType=ebooks&asin=140943785X&revisionId=&format=4&depth=1 Join us next time when we're joined by Ellen Mellington to discuss Streamlining Operations with Agile Controls: The Key to Business-As-Usual Performance.

In this week's pod, we were re-joined by Hezron Ricketts to discuss Box to Box: the 'Black' boxes of Controls and Systems. Director of PMO Services at CPC Project Services, Hezron has 19 years working in Projects and Programmes as well as building a consultancy business and business units. Working across the construction, rail, defence to name a few, he enjoys the challenge of delivery and the importance of setting up projects and organisations for success. Hezron has a passion for bringing technological and cultural change in addition to improving diversity within the project profession. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: The annual timetabling of trains is more complex than people give it credit for due to the number of competing priorities to maintain and upgrade existing assets Railway systems need to be engaged up to 20 years before a new train system goes live The building and maintenance of a railway system forms part of an overall national strategy. The new High Speed Rail line in the UK is about freight and capacity as well as improving journey times. Railways are cheaper to maintain than roads although rail asset maintenance costs increase every year the asset diminishes In countries like Australia, it has become easier to create flight paths instead of high speed rail because of the geographical considerations of the country where the majority of people live near the coast The testing and commissioning phase of major rail projects can rarely be shortened. Projects often try to shorten this when the earlier stages start to become delayed. Major rail projects are often backwards looking in their management reporting. There needs to be a step change to use forward looking indicators Join us next time when we're joined by Shane Forth to discuss Navigating the Project Control Landscape: A Journey Through the Decades and Beyond.

In this week's pod, we were joined by Christine McLean to discuss EQ, IQ, and MQ: Unlocking the Power of Softer Skills Christine is the newly elected president of the ACostE, the professional home for project controls. She has more than 20 years of experience working in the utilities, oil and gas and nuclear sectors. She gained her fellowship in 2018 and is a certified cost engineer. Two years ago she transitioned from working in Project Controls to teaching Project Controls and wrote the first Academic Certificate in Project Controls in the US, which can now be taken as part of university studies. She is also a route panel member for IFATE, RQF Assessor, End Point assessment assessor and governor of her daughter's school. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: There are currently 1,700 members of ACostE. Short term goal is to promote diversity within the industry Schools generally teach students to pass exams rather than focusing on communication skills which are essential for success in the workplace Exam results are not the best way of assessing someone's capability for a role MQ – Motivation Quotium Seek feedback – always ask trusted friends and family to provide honest feedback Whilst you can train yourself to improve your Emotional Intelligence, it should be done in an authentic way. If you are unsure how someone is feeling, just ask them It is more common to be motivated by development and wanting to change the world Many Gen Z employees are motivated by wanting to make a difference to the world but do not know how to go about this Here are links to some of the topics we discussed: ACostE - https://acoste.org.uk/node/1 Join us next time when we're re-joined by Hezron Ricketts to discuss Box to Box: the 'Black' boxes of Controls and Systems.

In this week's pod, we welcomed back Alan Mosca to discuss AI in Project Controls – Separating fact from fiction. Alan is the co-founder and CTO of nPlan, where he leads technology, research, and product, whilst developing thought leadership about forecasting and risk. Before nPlan, Alan spent 7 years as a technologist in quantitative finance, on live trading systems, research, and front-office in both high-frequency trading and asset management. Alan has extensive experience in algorithm design and software engineering and holds a BEng in Computer Engineering, MSc in Computer Science, and doctoral research in machine learning theory. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: There needs to be a lot of responsibility with using data from AI toolsets Toolsets are available that can auto-plan a successor activity in a schedule based on previous data Large language models only work based on language. Chat GPT took longer to reach the mainstream because of the data checks to ensure outputs were not inappropriate AI will not replace humans on projects. It will only evolve their current roles In the next 3-5 years we will see models that can internalize the meaning of a project AI could be used to measure schedule compliance with the contract Models can't self-regulate which can lead to biases in data. We're past the point of having a common data environment Create better things not faster things! Simulation is harder than AI because it requires a greater level of precision One person's experience is another person's bias One of the main fictions of AI is that everything will be possible. It will never predict the future, it will only forecast possible outcomes Be a critic! AI outputs are not infallible Here are links to some of the topics we discussed: David Chalmers – Are Large Language Models Sentient? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BcuCmf00_Y Join us next time when we're re-joined by Christine McLean to discuss EQ, IQ, and MQ: Unlocking the Power of Softer Skills For more information, blogs or to support our charities visit www.projectchatterpodcast.com If you'd like to sponsor the podcast get in touch via our website.

Since 2014, Paul has been supporting two major rail projects. He is a Mechanical Engineer by background and has over 20 years' experience in Design Management and Project Controls. In addition, Paul has spent time working in central government, where he managed a construction innovation budget, and as a researcher where he developed some of Adept Management's innovative approaches to design planning and management. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: There is generally more scrutiny on the construction part of a design and build contract however both need equal attention in order to manage projects effectively Design planning is not as linear as other types of programmes. There are generally more interdependencies and iterations of designs Build a WBS and identify relevant activities and inputs before starting the planning process As the project is delivered, the Last Planner System can be used to monitor progress Using % complete to measure design progress can be difficult to implement consistently Working from home has made it more difficult to promote communication and problem solving in major projects as the relevant stakeholders are not collaborating as often as they would in an office based environment Earned Value Management only works when rules of credit are in place and all stakeholders are aware of the limitations of it being the sole measure of progress Digital twin can help engineers to assess the effect of what may seem like a small scale change on a design It is prudent to have a sole interface between engineering and project management in order to deliver a consistent message One of the key challenges for Engineering Managers is to get the “commitment” from the engineering team(s) to deliver to a specified date or budget Here are links to some of the topics we discussed: The Latham Report – Constructing The Team: https://constructingexcellence.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Constructing-the-team-The-Latham-Report.pdf Adept Management: https://www.adeptmanagement.com/ Last Planner System: https://leanconstructionblog.com/What-is-the-Last-Planner-System.html Join us next week when we speak to Tony Welch to discuss five levers for change.

In this week's pod, we welcomed back Paul Goodge to discuss why we're bad at promoting the industry. Paul is internationally regarded as a Programme Management and Change Management specialist. He is noted for his ability to swiftly and accurately diagnose issues and evolve solutions both from a technical and a behavioural point of view. In all of his most senior roles he successfully implemented Capability Improvement Plans that received significant praise both internally and with the customer base. Over his career he held a variety of roles both in line leadership and a number of functional responsibilities, providing him with insights across the whole of the enterprise. He has Chaired or sat on a wide variety of internal and external committees and steering groups. An ex-Board member of the Association of Project Management he has continued to work very closely with the organisation and was in the first cohort to achieve Chartered Project Professional status. He achieved an MBA from Cranfield University in 1994. Paul retired from full-time employment in 2012 and enjoys a wide range of interests. His portfolio encompasses consultancy work to various companies, the P3M profession, Executive Coaching and extensive work with various charities, operating locally, nationally and internationally. He is an avid long-distance walker, world-wide traveller, and greatly enjoys music, reading, sport, fine food and wine in his spare time. He has recently commenced studying for a PhD. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: Whilst there isn't much quantitative data on the subject, most Project Management professionals would agree that we are not great at promoting the industry There are not many case studies that people can refer to that show the benefit of project management Whose responsibility is it to promote the industry? Everyone's! The associations also have a role to play in sharing knowledge within the industry as well as promoting it Not enough is currently done in terms of outreach programmes to attract graduates and students into the profession. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) have done this successfully in the UK Failure to entice a diverse range of candidates into the profession will cause issues in years to come Gamification and simulation of projects could be a way of promoting the benefits of project management to schoolchildren Groups such as Project Connect Group are helping to promote networking within the industry. The associations also have a role to play in this We are all ambassadors for the industry – be proud!

In this week's pod, we welcomed Dr Alan Barnard to discuss the theory of constraints & decision-making. Dr. Alan Barnard is an entrepreneur, philanthropist, strategy advisor, research scientist, app developer, author, coach, lecturer, podcaster, and lifelong learner. Alan is considered one of the world's leading Decision Scientists and Theory of Constraints experts. Alan is the CEO of Goldratt Research Labs, which he co-founded in 2009 with Dr. Eli Goldratt, author of THE GOAL, creator of Theory of Constraints and Critical Chain Project Management. Dr. Alan's research focuses on understanding why good people make, and often repeat bad decisions, and how best to avoid these. From this research, Alan and his team at Goldratt Research Labs have developed a range of award-winning Decision Support Apps that help organizations and individuals make better faster decisions when it really matters. Their clients include Fortune 500 companies, Government Agencies, and people from over 70 countries that are using their apps to make difficult life and business decisions. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: There is a massive amount of invisible simplicity on major projects How do you decide on a goal if you do not know what resources will limit you reaching that goal? Many people become successful due to factors outside their control such as luck and good genes, however almost all successful people make good decision and are hard working, which is in their control To create a stable system, have a single constraint that doesn't move Projects are always looking for the inherent but invisible simplicity. Critical path methodology enabled projects to simplify how they represent project delivery, however this usually ignores resource and capacity constraints Many people are better at estimating work durations in big chunks rather than at a lower level / individual task based detail Hard to quantify capacity, availability and capability of resources in a project plan. The easiest thing to track is whether a project is waiting for resource The main planning mistake is to ignore capacity when making commitments and launch too many projects at the same time AI is better suited to production environments where there is repetitive information A key skill of a manager is the ability to keep the team “in flow” Here are links to some of the topics we discussed: Flow Theory: https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/psychology/flow-theory Impossible Unless: https://www.impossibleunless.com/special-copy-registration Project Portfolio Digital Twin: https://www.projectdigitaltwin.com/sale1648625245366 Goldratt Research Labs: www.goldrattresearchlabs.com Harmony Apps: https://harmonyapps.com/ Dr Alan Barnard Website: www.dralanbarnard.com Critical Chain - Eliyahu Goldratt: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Critical-Chain-Business-Eliyahu-Goldratt/dp/0566080389 How to Improve Work Flow in any Environment - keynote by Dr. Alan Barnard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AkrjO55VBQ&feature=youtu.be Join us next week when we speak to Paul Waskett to discuss Project Controls in design and engineering stages For more information, blogs or to support our charities visit www.projectchatterpodcast.com If you'd like to sponsor the podcast get in touch via our website.
