Covers the entire spectrum of project management, from the initial project definition, business case, and organizational structuring through investment, risk and change management, reporting, and close-out. This book is closely aligned to the content of the APM and PMI bodies of knowledge.
Covering the principles and techniques you need to successfully manage an engineering or technical project from start to finish, Project Management, Planning and Control is an established and widely recommended project management handbook.

With clear and detailed coverage of planning, scheduling and control, which can pose particular challenges in engineering environments, this sixth edition includes new chapters on Agile project management and project governance, more real-life examples and updated software information.

Ideal for those studying for Project Management Professional (PMP) qualifications, Project Management, Planning and Control is aligned with the latest Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) for both the Project Management Institute (PMI) and the Association of Project Management (APM), and includes questions and answers to help you test your understanding. It is also updated to match the latest BS 6079 standard for project management in construction.

He has managed large projects for Tarmac, Sim Chem (Simon Engineering), Senior Engineering and Foster Wheeler Power Products and has accredited many project management courses for the Association for Project Management (APM), as well as setting and marking APM exams. He has taught and lectured widely on the topic at a number of universities including University College London (UCL), was a member of BSI and ISO panels developing new project management standards and acted as adjudicator and expert witness in many industrial and construction disputes.
