Project Cost Engineering, Risk Management & EVM

Salvo Global’s Project Cost Engineering, Risk Management & EVM course will equip participants with the skills and knowledge to control the costs of their projects. They will learn the foundations of cost estimating, cost control, and planning. It is acclaimed that improving cost engineering capabilities within the industry contributes to the development of affordable products and technologies. There is growing demand at local, national and international levels to impart cost and affordability engineering knowledge to support organisations seeking high-level cost engineers.

Cost Engineering and Risk Management (Day 1 – 3) program will cover the latest techniques and practical methodologies of project cost engineering and risk management to successfully manage project cost and risk, in order to maximize business ROI in the long run. You will gain the combination of unmatched risk analysis skills, cost engineering and thorough knowledge of your project parameters and uncertainties.

Earned Value Management (Day 4 – 5) program will cover the principles, methodologies and industry best practices in Earned Value Management. Using the knowledge to analyse project performance and to provide accurate cost and schedule forecasting, you will be able to contribute to your project’s increased performance and success.

“I attended the trainer’s course ‘Advanced Cost Engineering and Risk Management’, which is a comprehensive training in Cost Engineering with a strong link to overall capital and risk management. He covered the project ‘big pictures’ as well as detail tools and methodologies that are useful for participants to further progress in developing their own toolsets. With my primary role in project assurance, I certainly have benefited from the training and I strongly recommend the training to anyone who is involved in capital projects!”
