​
The Approach:
Dr. Sola Talabi was hired to assist in establishing an advanced risk management program. The program's charter included identification of causes of cost and schedule overruns, documentation of the findings in a user-friendly database and development of a plan of action to prevent issues from recurring.
As a result of this work, the NSSS firm has significantly reduced cost and schedule overruns on the three projects as compared to historical performance. Although the projects are not completed, all major procurements have been made and no significant issues are anticipated.
