Whether you are a project manager or product manager tasked to oversee an outsourced capital project, or an owner investing in a major project critical to the future of your business, you are most likely starting at a disadvantage.

A savvy contractor’s project team is likely to be populated with project management professionals who have read an abundance of literature on how to maximize project value for themselves.

Unfortunately, little has been written on the best practices for overseeing a project from the client’s perspective.

Participants in this session will gain insight into what is project oversight and why it matters from former Naval Reactors project oversight professionals.

In this webinar Herbert Marshall (LinkedIn profile) & Frank Coon (LinkedIn profile) answers the question of how project oversight differs from project management and covers basic principles of project oversight.

At the completion of this webinar, participants should be able to:

  1. Define project oversight from the client’s perspective
  2. Explain how project oversight differs from project management
  3. List the basic principles of project oversight
