| Summary |
Government agencies tasked with managing environmental site cleanup strive to increase competition and decrease their environmental liabilities. Many utilize contracts that shift cost overrun risk to contractors. Cost-conscious contractors are transitioning more responsibility to project managers, with less budget and fewer staff to execute project support functions previously provided by company resource organizations. Consequently, many project managers feel like they're managing their own small business--completely in charge of their destiny. This has led to the ruin of many projects and the even the demise of a few proud companies. Each year, many contractors and consultants with innovative technical remedies fail to earn follow-up contract awards or must "team" with larger firms. Some struggle to achieve consistency in one or more Chapter topics because they fail to establish goals, plans, and process-oriented solutions. It's an unfortunate script that repeats itself-over and over again. Best Practices for Environmental Project Teams provides project managers and their teams, Government managers, and regulatory agencies with practical guidelines for continuously improving performance. Project managers and team members can pick from a variety of Chapter topics, stated as Actions, to address existing skill gaps with practical tools and guidelines. Additionally, these topics will enhance personnel professional development plans. Understand your Government Client Business Model Implement a Flexible Environmental Quality Management System.
