Project Management Institute: Pike's Peak Regional Chapter

Welcome to the PMI - Pikes Peak Regional Chapter

Monthly Meeting Notice*

(11 June 2009)

Meeting June 2009 :

Location:  Summit Ballroom, 4th Floor of the Crowne Plaza

Tonight's Meeting Topic:

This evening’s presentation topic will be the design and construction phases of the Austin Bluffs at Union interchange in Colorado Springs.  Focus will be on the project management aspects of both, with emphasis on the construction phase.  Areas covered include tools and techniques used to help manage construction, schedules, budgets, citizens, and motorist expectations. 

 

Workshop Topic:

Management is a combination of art and science.  The PMI program provides a superb knowledge basis for approaching contract planning and execution tasks...the challenge is how to pick the right tools and techniques, or modify them, to be successful in meeting client needs while also meeting business standards related to risk mitigation, profitability, etc.  TechWise has provided realistic pre-deployment training support to the Army since 2005.  From that experience base we will take a recent exercise support contract (providing tactical scenario Role Player support to a deploying Army brigade) as a case study to look at some practical challenges and solutions with focus on the following:
 
- Framing the contract and acquisition strategy
- Recruiting, qualifying, and managing human capital
- Managing execution of labor and ODCs in a very austere yet dynamic enviroment
