'When in the early 1990s I wrote my first book on project management I wanted to describe how to manage time, cost and quality (amongst other things). So I started to read what other people had written. I looked at one famous text book published by Gower. In the index "quality" had two page references. So I looked at both. Both just said that project managers need to manage time, cost and quality. Although chapters were devoted to time and cost, nothing was said about quality on projects. Although a substantial amount has been written about managing quality on projects now, including in my books such as the Gower Handbook of Project Management, there is still much less than has been written on cost and time. A comprehensive guide on how to manage quality on projects is needed, and so Ron Basu's book is very welcome.' Rodney Turner, Professor of Project Management, SKEMA Business School, France 'I have worked on four mega-projects over the last 25 years, Yanbu city building programme, the Channel Tunnel, HS1 and Crossrail. During this, Directors have invariably asked how their project compared with others. This book provides a complete analysis of project excellence and a unique means of measuring it.' Daniel Keeling, Head of Quality, Crossrail, UK If you cannot define you cannot measure and if you cannot measure you cannot control, assure or improve. By identifying and linking project quality success criteria with critical success factors Ron Basu adds substantially to the body of knowledge. He shows how to go above and beyond to achieve project excellence. An easy to apply model for self assessment to achieve project quality is also provided. This is a well researched book complete with meaningful case examples.' J Nevan Wright, Auckland University of Technology, New Zealand 'Projects play an important role in many organisations. Large projects consume great resources and costs runs into billions of pounds. Delays or poor quality frequently costs organisationsMore details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
