ex Projects. This must-have practical handbook for Large, Complex Projects originated in the trenches of actual project execution. It is not a heavy and detailed bible, but rather a practical reference for project practitioners to understand the principles and traps of Cost Control and Forecasting and be able to raise the right challenges to their teams. Proper Cost Control and Forecasting must support the Project Manager's decision making; unfortunately, that is still rarely the case. This handbook explains how to better implement these key processes, thereby improving significantly the odds of maintaining projects under control and taking the right decisions at the right time. The second improved edition expands to cover both owners and contractors. Already more than 2,000 copies sold to leading global project-driven companies!
