Project management and organization of international engineering projects
Schroth, Ralf Wolfgang
In the Geomatic industries it is becoming more and more common that bigger projects are tendered internationally. There is also a high demand for extremely fast production cycles combined with quality insurance regulations. These clearly marked trends influenced by a strong globalization process show the necessity of a qualified project management with international experiences as it is known in the fields of civil engineering or of plant engineering and construction. Therefore the theory of international project management will be described with its demands for organizational structures, education and human skills. Examples from long term international projects with integration of all our Geomatic disciplines like Geodesy, Surveying, Photogrammetry or Cartography demonstrating the practicability and lessons learnt.
