Right First-Time Megaproject Delivery: Overcoming Complexity and Scale

Recent years have seen recurrent calls to increase the volume of investment in infrastructure in order to boost economic activity and employment. The view of infrastructure, however, is not universally positive. Delivery of these schemes remains under sustained challenge due to a reputation of late and under-value delivery. “Right first time” is a process for delivering high-quality engineering solutions through the development of clear requirements and careful stakeholder management, ultimately avoiding late surprises upon delivery. This session will use practical project case studies from the last 10 years to show how this process, enabled by digital solutions, has helped projects avoid both delays and increased costs. As major work programs become ever more complex and societal expectations continue to increase, join us to learn how megaprojects such as Tideway and BART Silicon Valley II ensured 82% of delivery packages were accepted first time around and reduced production efforts by 32%.
