Effective project management is more
important than ever - re-engineered and downsized organizations,
international multi-owner teams, and poor construction
practices are but a few of today's concerns. Without
efficient management, there is a 50% chance that your
project will encounter serious delays, substantial cost
overruns, or both. Such problems are especially serious
in countries where there is a lack of experienced, impartial
management. Robert A. King, Inc. (RAKI) provides the
best insurance for avoiding these difficulties -
effective project management by experts acting on behalf
of the owner. RAKI was established to provide this solution
and has proven results on more than 200 projects in
45 different countries, with total investments exceeding
$30 billion. In every case where RAKI has been given
total responsibility and has had proper authority, RAKI
has been successful in controlling costs and quality
of workmanship while adhering to an agreed-upon schedule.
Each RAKI project manager serves as chief executive
and technical administrator and is responsible for achievement
the project's objectives. We get results by focusing
on controlling time, costs, and quality and by bringing
ten elements of effective project management to every
job.
CONTROLLING TIME, COST AND QUALITY
TIME
After a careful survey, a master project schedule is
established. After defining this tight, yet realistic
schedule, our project manager makes sure available resources
include the necessary professionals and equipment. We
often use critical path analysis to determine precise
events and, as the job progresses, we see to it that
all work is inspected.
From start to finish, RAKI management makes the daily
executive decisions required to keep your project on
schedule - even in the face of unforeseen problems,
such as late deliveries or bad weather. And, the project
manager provides regular, comprehensive reports to keep
the client fully informed.
COST
To create a realistic budget for your project, RAKI
considers both our experience with similar projects
and up-to-date information on market conditions. Our
history and attention to detail enable us to create
a detailed budget and manage cost control for the
lifecycle of the project. Our project manager maintains
constant surveillance to anticipate the cost impact
of major design changes and construction modifications
while issuing timely cost reports.
QUALITY
We ensure that the proper specifications and design
standards are established for your project, enabling
your to achieve your goals; meet company and local
regulations; and benefit from superior workmanship.
During all work phases, steady supervision and thorough
inspections help RAKI deliver quality.
