A&D Northwest
LIG to Present a "New Approach to Project Integration"
Please join us for the second part
of a unique meeting detailing a whole new concept in integrating complex
projects
Part 2: New Concept for integrating Complex
Projects
June
18, 2008 5:30 PM-8:30 PM PDT
This
presentation proposes a project development and process that defines
a projects as a system that produces the end product(s)
of the project. This innovation enables the use of the product development
process to develop and integrate the project as a system.
Because most engineers and project managers understand this process,
learning is minimized and project execution will be improved. However,
examination of the process from this perspective has identified some
needs for new techniques and tools to integrate within and between
project elements and these will be presented. Evaluation of this approach
and next steps will be discussed.
