- Description
- M.Phil. (Engineering Management), Abstract: Design, engineering and construction projects are inherently complex by nature, let alone when multiple disciplines and organisations are involved. The rapid development of technology, size of projects and speed to market are all factors to consider to remain competitive, efficient and profitable in a global market. Engineering managers are finding it increasingly more important to be equipped with additional administrative and commercial skills to adapt to continuously changing environments. Organisations are forced to be innovative and creative by developing effective management and planning strategies with sound decision making processes. All stakeholders are required to pay more attention to the difficulties and problems experienced with interfacing and change control than ever before. This study presents the problems experienced with interface and change control management and the benefits of implementing effective interface and change control processes. Interface and change control management frameworks are proposed to mitigate the impact of problems by encouraging meaningful communication between all stakeholders to focus on the objectives to complete projects successfully within time, budget and to performance requirements.
