Modelling Complex Projects cover

It is widely acknowledged that traditional Project Management techniques are no longer sufficient, as projects become more complex and client's demand reduced timescales. Problems that arise include inadequate planning and risk analysis, ineffective project monitoring and control, and uninformed post-mortem analysis. Effective modelling techniques, which capture the complexities of such projects, are therefore necessary for adequate project management. This book looks at those issues, describes some modelling techniques, then discusses their merits and possible synthesis.

  • This is the only project management book that deals with Project Modelling.
  • Features case studies throughout.
  • Places the various approaches to Project Modelling within a coherent framework, and gives an objective overview.
