Our technology partners will be presenting seven in-depth 35-minutes sessions where they will demonstrate the functionality and capabilities of their innovative products via case studies that includes a problem statement and technological solution.

This stream discusses the fundamental elements of project controls’ disciplines in detail. It provides further education and understanding aimed for beginners and intermediate project controls’ professionals. This is an exceptional opportunity for individuals who have just entered the project controls’ profession, or who wish to gain insight on the various sub-functions of project controls.

PCE is fully embracing digital ways of working in construction: The use of technological innovations such as BIM, robotics, virtual and augmented reality and modular/offsite construction, enables building digitally before building on site so as to be mindful of climate.
The Smart Construction Zone will discuss the various tools, technologies, and contracts involved in the generation and management of digital representations of physical and functional characteristics of places through discussing their application on real-life projects and/or the latest advancements.
There will be an equal emphasis on carbon efficiency highlighting the need for continuous measurement and management of carbon through all project stages, basing project decisions on CO2 emissions as well as health, safety, cost, time and quality.

“Real World” problems and issues are what brings the application of project controls alive. This case-study zone enables you to discuss the application of specific project controls process and how they address the problems in a real-life project environment with clear reference to real project supported by relevant stakeholders."

We treat Megaprojects as large-scale, complex ventures with budgets of >$1 billion. They take many years to develop and build but make a long-lasting impact on the economy, environment and society, affecting millions of people. Here you will discover how to use sound governance and address the challenges while protecting the investments megaprojects represent.

The Masterclass Zone presents a fantastic opportunity to study and discuss the theory and practice of project controls. Our highly experienced project controls’ professionals from around the world, will provide seven educational presentations that enable you to build and enhance your knowledge and skillset.

We are dedicated to self-improvement so, the Innovations Zone is an incubator for bold new project controls’ ideas, and a place where they can be openly discussed. It provides a space for our experts from across the profession s to share concepts for managing projects, with new ways of thinking. In this way, 'best practice' rises to the top and new ideas are perfected.

TBCWe are delivering two workshops on 14 November i.e Day 1 of the event. These workshops will be organized by PCE directly. The topics in consideration are BIM and Schedule Risk Analysis (SRA) workshop in Project Controls.
Speakers will be identified by the PCE team using the “call for papers” process. There will be two sessions from 09:40 to 12:40 (BIM Workshop) and 13:45 to 16:30 (SRA Workshop).
