Bid too high, lose the job. Bid too low, lose your margins. What's a profit-minded, growth-oriented company to do?
Join our conversation with Quanta Services' Jody Greer, Director of Estimating & Project Controls, to hear how Quanta modernized its estimating work to balance their win rare with accuracy and scale their estimating function in a fast-paced environment.
You'll learn first-hand the details of how they transformed their estimating process, including during their acquisition of operating units, allowing them to expand into new international markets. In short, how they learned to bid it like they build it, and how you can too.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Standardizing estimating processes for growth without losing expertise and autonomy across your operating units
- Gaining complete control of your cost breakdown structure, i.e., estimating based on actual work procedures that are used to do the job
- Meeting customer bid requirements on your terms, giving your clients what they need without giving up your proprietary data and maintaining your estimating process
- Enhancing the accuracy of your estimating team while increasing their productivity
- Embracing the right "bid it-built it" technology, increasing confidence and improving hit ratio
While there have been advances in the running of project management offices (PMOs), it takes strategic program delivery for them to be successful in today’s hyper-competitive market.
In addition to aligning work with organisational and departmental strategic initiatives, you must account for other challenges as well. For instance, how do you handle larger and more complex programs? And what about growing workforces spread across different locations and time zones and being mindful of each unique culture?
Join InEight’s Director of Analytics Catie Williams and a panel of industry insiders as they explore key PMO insights within the contractor and owner spaces. You’ll learn key tips on overcoming the challenges you’ll face when establishing your best PMO.
Among the topics we’ll explore:
- Defining a PMO and if there’s an ideal model to follow
- Establishing PMOs from an owner and contractor perspective
- The role change management plays when establishing a PMO within government departments versus a private company
- The role project management technology plays in successful PMOs
