26/05/2012Seminar How to improve Business / Project Performance
Seminar on “How to improve Business / Project Performance – Partnership, Risk Management and Value Management” Synopsis: In this world of ever-changing and full of new technologies, the management model in all business should also change to meet the customers’ increasing demands and expectations. As a result of traditional hierarchy management approach, there are many examples in cost and time overruns, and even disputes resolved in the Court. What are the reasons behind? Numerous research studies concluded that lack of team spirit, no sense of crisis and no encouragement of creativities are the key factors. Nowadays, Partnering, Risk Management and Value Management are promoted and being implemented in all major infrastructure projects and some large-scale private developments in order to improve the team and the Project performance. The essences of NEC (New Engineering Contract), which will be fully implemented by the Government of HKSAR in the near future, are also based in these three areas. The speaker will share his experiences and best practices in these areas with the participants and hopes that the sharing will enhance each other's business in a much smoother manner. About the Speaker: Mr. KH Fok fulfilled various roles in the Civil and Foundation engineering industry for nearly 30 years. His thorough grasp of the NEC3 and other forms of contract have helped in his successful management of more than 50 construction projects including the Tin Shui Wai Site Formation, the 155m deep large diameter bored pile in Tung Chung and the piling works for the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal. KH is a highly experienced and popular facilitator with an astute understanding of the cross-cultural working environment in Hong Kong, has been facilitating more than 400 workshops in partnering, value management and risk management. KH was appointed by the Housing Authority for a series of partnering workshops and post completion review workshops from 2005 to 2010. He is currently appointed as the partnering lead facilitator for all MTR WIL and SIL(E) contracts and the Risk Manager for some large scale infrastructure projects.
