Global Engineering Project Management

Engineering projects that cover multiple countries, politics, cultures, and different standards create additional challenges for project managers. This book aligns real-world experiences in international project management with practical project management principles. It discusses all phases of an international project with real case examples. Written as a hands-on reference, it shows how to anticipate and prepare for upcoming challenges, covering everything from start-up planning and post-project evaluation, to concerns over supply management, cost containment, and intellectual property. Every chapter contains a checklist to remind managers of issues they must prepare for or oversee.
