Book Description

157444218X 978-1574442182 December 3, 1998 1
Environmental remediation has brought significant improvements to industrial sites and surrounding communities throughout the nation. It's also become notorious for high budget overruns and frequent schedule delays, as environmental remediation's technological aspects become subject to political, managerial and economic concerns.
Modern Project Management (MPM) Processes offer a new framework for remediation programs, geared to increased efficiency and precise troubleshooting. Environmental consultant and certified project management professional (PMP) Timothy J. Havranek has helped various companies put MPM into practice: now, he brings his techniques to the environmental remediation industry at large.
Melding traditional project management structure and advanced strategic planning techniques to the needs of environmental remediation, Modern Project Management Techniques for the Environmental Remediation Industry presents this major innovation: a standardized planning process, applicable to all types of remediation projects.
Every participant in an environmental remediation effort can mutually benefit from Modern Project Management Techniques for the Environmental Remediation Industry.
Environmental consultants will discover precise budget and schedule-planning skills-quite an advantage in their increasingly competitive industry. Customers will also know what to consider when selecting an environmental services company, and discover advanced methods for reducing project costs and durations.
MPM: it's bringing new vitality and purpose to environmental protection. Put it into practice with the benefit of Havranek's real-life experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars A perspective from an environmental professional, February 1, 2000
By 
john alonso (Tampa, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Modern Project Management Techniques for the Environmental Remediation Industry (Hardcover)
Mr. Havranek's book provides a very complete overview of project management techniques for the environmental remediation professional. He covers all phases of the project management beginning with evaluation of project opportunities and continuing through project team setup, resource management and tracking and project execution. He also presents a unique approach to strategic planning which utilizes quantitative decision analysis techniques. I highly recommend the book as a project management text.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Comprehensive, November 1, 2008
This review is from: Modern Project Management Techniques for the Environmental Remediation Industry (Hardcover)
Tim's book has been out awhile now, but it is still very applicable to the current remediation industry. His discussion of project drivers and probablistic modeling is particulary comprehensive and useful. I highly recommend the book to any project or risk manager in the industry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Environmental Project Management, October 30, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Modern Project Management Techniques for the Environmental Remediation Industry (Hardcover)
Mr. Havranek starts by putting project management in the environmental industry into an historical perspective and proceeds to illustrate how modern project management techniques can be applied within the environmental industry. In an industry that is evolving from reactive mode to thoughtful planning and execution, the book is a primer for project managers.
