  With the innumerable number of blogs available in the cyber world, Project Professionals\u2019<\/em><\/strong> meaningful contribution will be providing a blend or mix of interrelated discussions.\u00a0 We intend to achieve a blend of pragmatic, practical and authoritative ideas and perspectives.\u00a0 Our focus is implementation of best practices to achieve desired business management objectives.<\/p>\n

  The overall theme is pragmatism with an emphasis on the business of professional project management of engineering and construction projects.\u00a0 While theory, academic views, studies, case law and other information should be considered; business managerial focus is the driving force.<\/p>\n

  We intend to cite industry references and then apply a pragmatic, managerial extension.\u00a0 References and sources include (but not limited to): Schwartzkopf, Pickavance, AACE International (AACEI), Wickwire, Bramble, Callahan, Project Management Institute (PMI), Construction Industry Institute (CII), Ibbs, Society of Construction Law, US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and others.<\/p>\n

  The Project Management Institute (PMI) provides a good example.\u00a0 We have been members of PMI, including College of Scheduling and College of Earned Value Management, for many years.\u00a0 We use PMI publications in providing training sessions and cite their positions when applicable.\u00a0 Our blog is intended as an extrapolation of PMI contributions and resources.\u00a0 This extrapolation is intended to have a business management (including profit) flavor or context.<\/p>\n

  Comments are desired.\u00a0 We view civil dialog and debate as a positive activity.\u00a0 Professionals enrolled in the \u201cschool of hard knocks\u201d are encouraged to provide commentary \u2013 thus practical perspectives.<\/p>\n
