The Risky Planner
Capital projects waste billions annually on predictable delays, but there's a proven way to deliver ahead of schedule and under budget.
Join Albert Brier, Director, Project Controls and Nate Habermeyer, Director, Marketing at Dokainish & Company, as they discuss how current events and trends are reshaping project controls and mega-projects across industries.
This podcast is designed for project managers, project controls professionals, IT leaders, and executives. Our listeners grapple with high-stakes decisions, tight deadlines, and inefficient project delivery systems. They face overruns, inconsistent reporting, technology misalignment, and integration struggles, leaving projects vulnerable to delays and cost overages.
We'll dissect the biggest industry pain points, including:
- Meeting critical milestones despite limited capacity and complex project scopes.
- Lack of standardized processes, forcing teams to consolidate data manually.
- Technology and system integration failures - where IT projects derail instead of accelerating progress.
- The failure of risk management practices, leaving organizations blind to their biggest threats.
- Why change initiatives fail, and how organizations can build a culture that embraces project controls.
Whether you're leading a megaproject or struggling to get executives to buy into project controls, this podcast will give you the tools and insights to take control of your capital projects - instead of letting them control you.
