It also set up an international full-service platform for construction machinery industry and constantly improve manufacturers’ international competitiveness.

By more than one year’s market research, CME 2011 has fully learned the aspirations of the majority of construction machinery manufacturers. Therefore,CME 2011 will take the “Asia’s largest” Canton Fair- Pazhou Complex in Guangzhou as a platform. CME 2011 is expected to cover over 50,000 square meters, including indoor exhibition hall and outdoor exhibition hall, which will gather more than 50,000 professional visitors and industry representatives from over 20 countries and regions.

The more exciting news is “China Association of Municipal Engineering Annual Conference” will be held at the same time with the CME 2011.All members of China Association of Municipal Engineering will be present at this Exhibition, including Municipal Engineering Association in various provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, units of municipal road engineering design, construction, maintenance, management, administrative department of transportation, Road and Bridge Companies, Municipal Engineering Company and so on. They will form a powerful and professional purchasing team, which is unparalleled in any exhibition in China.

Meanwhile, it is a blue moon for all decision-making figures of China Association of Municipal Engineering gathering to attend an exhibition, which will give you unexpected surprise to propagandize your product in here and to demonstrate your enterprise image here. Besides, Municipal authorities, management and other related departments, industry will also attend this grand exhibition., so it will bring out an extraordinary effect in China municipal engineering.

Getting to the root of your maintenance issues to ensure reliability and improved maintenance systems as well as achieving zero downtime in your operations

Unwanted incidents happen in our daily lives. The extent of the damage now, or whether bad things happen again, is a product of how we respond to the situation. Often without any analysis, we go ahead with hastily conceived, ill-considered solutions that merely sweep the badness under the edge of the rug, to be inadvertently revealed at some later date. What we need is a method that helps us find the core issues affecting our performance.

Root cause failure analysis (RCFA) / Root cause analysis (RCA) is a methodology for finding and correcting the most important reasons for performance problems. It differs from troubleshooting and problem solving in that these disciplines typically seek solutions to specific difficulties, whereas RCFA is directed at underlying issues the true causes.

Significant industries using root cause failure analysis include manufacturing, construction, healthcare, transportation, chemical, petroleum, and power generation. The possible fields of application include operations, project management, quality control, health and safety, business process improvement, change management, and many others.

Marcus Evans – Root Cause Failure Analysis will provide auditors with an opportunity to learn how to conduct an in-depth audit; what elements of a project should be audited and how to develop and report on the audit findings to ensure the report findings are implemented. You will be engaged through the major stages of projects and receive an expert insight that will ultimately help you simplify and concurrently improve your auditing processes.

This intensive course will deliver a customized training, focusing on the key issues as addressed by the sample market. The training will also feature case studies and group activities, which will give a better understanding on carrying out effective RCFAs and getting to the right root cause so that there will no recurrence of maintenance issues and it will ensure smooth running of your plant.

This will be a 2-day training programme provides engineering professionals with methods to enhance their Root Cause Failure Analysis techniques to enhance the reliability and maintenance system of their organization. Do not miss the opportunity to enrich yourself with better accident RCFA techniques that will elevate your organisation’s maintenance standards as well as eliminating downtime.

Successfully creating a project management toolbox that will positively impact your project’s end result amidst the volatile economic condition

The recession has increased the need for project audits more than ever. As organisations continue to look for immediate ways in which to save money and time, it becomes imperative that a project health check or audit be conducted in order to immediately identify the source of problems that if fixed, will create future opportunities and savings for these organisations. Project audits and health checks have a direct, bottom-line impact on both public and private organisations.

Marcus Evans – Project Audit for Risk Assurance will provide auditors with an opportunity to learn how to conduct an in-depth audit; what elements of a project should be audited and how to develop and report on the audit findings to ensure the report findings are implemented. You will be engaged through the major stages of projects and receive an expert insight that will ultimately help you simplify and concurrently improve your auditing processes.

This intensive course will deliver practical knowledge to our delegates by exposing them to important case studies, scenario building and other exciting activities which will be evaluated by our PMI qualified trainer. Delegates can discuss their most pressing issues in complex contract management and examine the correct practices for smoother project operations and increased productivity.

This will be a 2-day training programme with a carefully chosen trainer who has extensive experience in conducting training courses. The trainer will deliver a customized training, focusing on the key issues as addressed by the sample market. Another important element is to allow more hands-on exchange & sharing between participants whereby the trainer is to attempt to solve participants’ real life case studies brought to the training. This is to allow for more intensive Q&A opportunities with the trainer.

Programme Management: An Approach for Managing Strategic and Complex Projects

Project management is a process by which corporate objectives can be achieved successfully by correct planning, organising and managing of available resources. A project can be any event in the industry with a specific start date and a targeted end date to create a product or service to meet certain specifications and expectations and will bring added value to that same product or service.
Marcus Evans –Project Management will look at managing multiple ongoing interdependent projects at the same time or projects distributed over wide geographic limitations etc. which require more complex management techniques and specialized skills. Complex project management or ‘programme management’ involves larger scale projects than normal project management scenarios and require the project manager to have robust direction over resource allocation and more effective means of project monitoring and control.

Delegates can discuss their most pressing issues in complex contract management and examine the correct practices for smoother project operations and increased productivity.
