Major procurement activities are an important part of programme management. These projects are difficult to manage. The scope, scale and nature of such programmes mean that timescales are often protracted. Those tasked with managing them must apply a wider range of skills and knowledge in order to identify, control and influence the many stakeholders and drivers to achieve successful delivery. Managing Major Procurement Projects is a comprehensive guide to developing these skills and embedding the knowledge required to handle these unique projects and their challenges. Managing Major Procurement Projects provides the tools and techniques needed to identify, influence and manage stakeholders. Insights are drawn from examining programmes that have significant development, build and through life operating and disposal costs. This book also takes an in-depth look at business case solutions, funding models and risk management. Case studies of major international projects including CrossRail, Al Maktoum International Airport and California High-Speed Rail Project feature throughout the text.
