This book describes the processes of large group intervention and decision-making
at the start of major project phase transitions. The authors have focused
the application on complex and complicated project environments. The results
are amazing; 30 up to 60% lead time and man-hour cost reduction as well
as a better quality are experienced and internationally reported. The book's
philosophy is focused rather on preventing, than on solving problems
It also contains 22 articles as supporting theories, explaining in more depth
the different available organizational achievements used in the project start
up process (PSUP).
Therefore the book can be considered as a practical and educational document.
Besides entertaining reading, it is a must for those involved with complex project
situations in an ever increasingly complicated society.

..."the underground, failing, streetcar station project
in the busy centre of the Haque had some 55 influential stakeholders
After many millions of euros spend on lawyers it was decided to adopt the
PSU process. Two days before the deadline the first streetcar entered the
tunnel to the station with non-paying passengers"...

vision on how to manage infrastructural projects fundamentally"...
