Description
With the delivery of projects becoming ever more challenging because of the current economic and legislative environment, Major Infrastructure Projects provides a detailed overview of the management of large infrastructure projects. Each chapter contains a topical case study, allowing students to appreciate the bigger picture behind management practices on an international scale. Such cases studies include taking a closer look at London’s Crossrail project and Al Maktoum International Airport in Dubai. Have a look at the full list of case studies in the sidebar. This title bridges the divide between funding/finance and operational project management for infrastructure projects. The authors have created links between techniques, risk, agile approaches and integrated supply chains, making this a comprehensive reference for all students focusing on project management.
