💻 Upcoming course: Integrating Asset Management & Governance 🗓 Start date: October 21 https://lnkd.in/gwp-37TG Daniel Pictin, Director of Capital and Infrastructure for the Na‑Cho Nyäk Dun First Nation, faced numerous asset management challenges, including a lack of staffing, difficult logistics and a severe climate in Northern Canada. Before taking part in NAMS Canada training, these obstacles made it difficult to maintain infrastructure and plan for future projects. Daniel says, NAMS Canada training provided him with critical tools for developing comprehensive asset management plans, focusing on long-term maintenance and sustainability. NAMS training also enabled the First Nation to collaborate with surrounding communities, it also enhanced conversations with federal partners, helped secure funding and improved infrastructure outcomes, including preparing for future climate challenges. Asset management training is crucial for First Nations and municipal employees as it equips them with the skills to develop long-term infrastructure plans, ensuring sustainability in remote and challenging environments. #FirstNations #AssetManagement #NotForProfit #Training

I am sure this is all about best intentions, but I cannot help thinking of the Covey habit about starting with the end in mind - The question that should be being asked and addressed is how can we change the mindset to expect government projects to succeed.. I spent a couple of years working on project standards and gateways reviews at the Defence Infrastructure Organisation and they had a great delivery process that was built around a mix of the RIBA process and the Cabinet Office/MOD business case approvals process. What I saw there really taught me that there is a challenge for delivering projects in respect of governance and standards. Too much control exerted by the business over Project Managers stymies individual capabilities and too little leads to the wild west. Neither is successful. A process based on gateway reviews is a happy medium. A robust framework and confidence in accountable staff to deliver reduces need for constant observation and fear of failure motivated interference. Let the PM get on with the job and then give them a thorough check at gateways. Use a reliable tool like #LinkSpace supported by the Ctrl O Ltd team. We can help ensure that there is minimum overhead for the project manager and maximum visibility for all other stakeholders, experts, and interested parties whatever the level and the type of interest.
Infrastructure and Projects Authority (IPA) and HM Treasury have collaboratively published 'Response to Red' guidance, providing crucial support to projects and programmes given a Red rating from independent IPA assurance. 🔴 Our guidance ensures GMPP projects and programmes are supported in taking clear, purposeful steps to improve delivery confidence, setting out the stages of the process, usual timeframes and more. As well, this guidance fits into the broader framework of IPA Assurance Workbooks and aligns with HM Treasury Approvals Process (TAP) guidance. This 'Response to Red' guidance will be beneficial for all GMPP teams undergoing an assurance review, as well as being a useful reference for other project teams. 📖 Read the guidance on the Hub: https://lnkd.in/e_E2_d8q #ProjectAssurance #RedRating #GovernmentProjectDelivery #ResponsetoRed
