Engineering Project Management: The IPQMS Method and Case Histories

Autor Louis Goodman
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 mar 1999
Engineering Project Management presents IPQMS (Integrated Planning and Quality Management System) as a powerful management methodology. This system ensures accountability, cost-effectiveness, and quality in the construction project, environmental cleanups, and other sectors - providing an integrative force for essential teamwork in industry and government.

This resource contains IPQMS case histories or postmortems as distinguished from engineering and business case studies. Each case history analyzes the entire spectrum of a particular project, demonstrating the interrelationships among policy makers, planners, designers, implementers, and managers in creating a project. Lessons learned from over 35 cases in nine countries clearly show the need to establish accountability for quality execution of programs, projects, and policies. An outline for a two-week training program on the IPQMS for planners, designers, and managers is included.

Recenzii

"...must reading for both university students and practitioners. My professional experience in over 40 years of consulting projects shows that lack of accountability is the single, outstanding problem. The IPQMS will solve that problem if properly implemented..."
- Donald J. Neubauer, P.E., President, Neubauer Consulting Engineers, Potomac, Maryland
"This book should be required in all education and training programs dealing with the design/build industry. It is also a must reference book for owners, designers, consultants, contractors, and subcontractors. With this excellent methodology, all parties will work as a team toward a common goal."
- Gary A. Wildish, P.E., Special Projects Coordinator and Senior Project Manager, Chambers Construction, Eugene, Oregon
"We in Hawaii have greatly benefited in using IPQMS - in both developing alternative energy sources and rebuilding Kauai from the devastation caused by Hurricane Iniki in 1992."
- Takeshi Yoshihara, P.E., Retired Deputy Director, DBEDT, State of Hawaii
