Project Start-Up

Even in the structured, staid, sometimes same-as-it-ever-was field of infrastructure engineering, there seems to be regular occurrences of project start-up frenzy. There is never enough time at the beginning of a project to start it up ‘right’. 

Project kick-off is always time-poor; the pressure and rush at project start-up will never change. Therefore, processes and procedures must be versatile and flexible in order to allow quick ramp up. It’s like they say: if you keep doing the same thing, you’ll get the same result each time. 

That works in the positive as well. So, utilise repeatable, robust and reliable procedures.
