MIIP: Risk Management Approaches & Technology Trends in Major Project Delivery | Case Study: Hong Kong TM-CLKL – Northern Connection Subsea Tunnel Section Project
Major Infrastructure & Industry Projects - Specific Interest Group (MIIP-SIG) welcomes professionals from all industries.
Risk Management Approaches & Technology Trends in Major Project Delivery.
Case Study: Hong Kong TM-CLKL – Northern Connection Subsea Tunnel Section Project
Experienced project managers, risk experts and executives all recognise that projects can fail, but perhaps the more important, and elusive, question is why do projects fail?
Highlights:
- Importance of establishing improved risk assumptions and evolving the risk process to anticipate how and why projects can fail;
- Share key recommendations from the work done with World Economic Forum on Rebalancing the Allocation of Risks in the development and delivery of major infrastructure projects;
- Introduce contemporary models for collaborative project delivery: Project 13 and OS2;
- Technological trends in the Risk Management & Project Governance;
- Showcase an application of robust risk management and engineering mitigations in complex infrastructure projects (Case Study).
Case Study: TM-CLKL – Northern Connection Subsea Tunnel Section Project
The Tuen Mun - Chek Lap Kok Link (TM-CLKL) – Northern Connection Subsea Tunnel Section project involved a 4.5 km long drive below the sea & 41 subsea cross passages encountering difficult ground conditions with tunnel depth reaching almost 60m.
Numerous innovative technologies and methodologies were thoroughly developed and implemented in order to overcome these challenges, mitigate numerous risks associated with the ground conditions and make the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) drives a success. This presentation offers an overview of the risks that were mitigated by the innovative technical solutions developed and implemented on this extraordinary project.
Learning Outcomes:
- Understand the key risk management challenges in the development and delivery of major projects and the changes required in allocation of risks to set projects up for success from the outset;
- Gain an understanding of the principles underpinning contemporary models for collaborative project delivery in which traditional transactional costs are minimised, capital value is enhanced and all project stakeholders are aligned on the outcome objective;
- Appreciate how technical solutions are implemented to mitigate complex project risks;
- Learn latest technological trends & applications in risk management;
- Improve risk management approaches by incorporating the gap analysis and lessons learned.
After attending this webinar, you will be able to:
- Appreciate the challenges of moving to new delivery models for managing complex risk in major projects;
- Understand the key risk allocation issues that traditionally challenge the ability to successfully deliver major projects;
- Embrace technology trends in risk management of major projects.
Presentation and Discussion Method:
Panel discussion and presentation held via Zoom.
