Managing Engineering
■How to get 300 engineers
mobilised in a few months in a
temporary organisation to work
together?
Managing Engineering
■You need a method.
proVision – our Engineering Method
What is it about?
proVision
It’s about Manging the Interdiscipline Communication
proVision
It’s about Communicating
the quality of the information available at any given time
proVision
It’s about
Project control – progress is directly given from design status
proVision
Planning and
controlling the
information flow
It’s all about:

Planning and Control of information
flow
The priority of the control object shall ensure optimum sequence of the work.
Priority is decided by:
■ Internal design dependencies
■ Lead time for equipment
■ Need for vendor information
■ Fabrication & installation plans
