Do you want to keep on top of your projects? Are you thinking about having greater influence over your projects?
At PTAG, we focus on creating a strong and early link between the business or mission, project strategy, scope, cost, and schedule, and maintaining that link unbroken throughout the project life. A well-performed front-end planning process can reduce costs, lead to less project variability in cost, schedule, and operating characteristics, and increase the chance of meeting a project’s environmental and social goals.
Successful projects execute front end planning (FEP) differently than less successful projects — specifically concerning information flow activities. These differences include more time spent and more resources utilized while planning projects.
The following figure illustrates the three sub-phases of FEP in the context of the typical life cycle of a project.

How much time do you spend managing conflicts in your projects?
In the construction industry, disputes are common. Identifying the aspects of a project that can lead to disputes early on and the steps required to resolve them is crucial for successful projects.
PTAG has industry specific teams ready to review the causes and administrative costs of such claims, recommend procedures for avoiding claims and investigate alternatives for the early, equitable settlement of claims. Dispute Review Boards (DRB) can be an effective way to facilitate timely on-site resolution of disputes, preventing matters from escalating costs and timelines.
To create a comprehensive system for dispute prevention and resolution, a project must:
Start Right
Stay Right
Provide for Resolution
Within the bounds of feasibility, PTAG provides the solutions for your project’s requirements.
