Project Execution Methodology -- Foundation Builder,
By A Customer
This review is from: Planning, Estimating and Control of Chemical Construction Projects (Cosmetic Science and Technology) (Hardcover)
I am about 50% through the book, and it has provided me with a good baseline approach to small & large projects. I have worked in process engineering, manufacturing, and process automation/control, but I have never professionally executed a chemical construction project. The book has everything you need to formalize a project execution methodology, including estimating rules-of-thumb and expected outcomes of each phase in the project. The only problem that I've seen is the author's repeated incorrect usage of the word "insure" -- in most cases, Pablo should have used "ensure". OK, so I'm picky..
