6 CE5806A Advanced Project Management Prof David Chua Kim Huat This module aims to equip students with the concepts, methodologies and tools to successfully control a project on site. In particular, they will learn to organise, plan and schedule a project for execution, and put in place controls for schedule and cost. They will learn advanced planning functions that include schedule compression, delay analysis and risk management. 1. Project Planning Function of planning; network methods and computations; concept of floats; work breakdown structure; other scheduling methods; 2.

7 CE5806B Lean Construction Management Prof David Chua Kim Huat This module aims to equip students with the concepts, methodologies and tools to successfully manage a project on site while achieving higher productivity. Lean construction concepts will dramatically improve performance by reducing waste, cost and increase value. Project plans can be made reliable with commitments from stakeholders. Students will learn to diagnose a construction process and devise strategies to increase productivity. 1. Foundations of lean principles: House of lean; identifying sources of wastes; enhancing value-adding; designing pull system; understanding takt time 2. Reducing wastes in construction Work flow diagnostics; understanding flows, bottlenecks and balance; value stream mapping; strategies for work flow improvement 3. Hands On Workflow analysis 4.
