Front-End Loading (FEL) Workshop
Course Description
BTS research has shown that project definition, or Front-End Loading (FEL), is one of the most significant drivers of project success. Well-defined projects cost less, take less time to execute, and operate better. The project definition process establishes a framework for aligning the project objectives with the business goals and ensures that business objectives are translated into project objectives. The Front-End Loading Workshop is an interactive program that teaches key members of the project team the essential knowledge and skills required to organize, plan, and execute an FEL action plan for capital projects of all sizes and types.

Key Benefits

Facilitated by experienced BTS staff, the FEL workshop is the perfect opportunity for the project’s different functional groups to raise pertinent project issues and risk. Additionally, upon completion of the FEL Workshop, participants will have gained the following:

  • Essential knowledge and skills for organizing, planning, and executing the FEL action plan
  • FEL roadmap for guiding the project team through essential FEL activities
  • FEL checklist for identifying the key FEL deliverables

 

Target Audience

The workshop is designed to include all functions involved in the project. This includes representation from business and operations, along with key owner(s) project management personnel. The number of contractors participating should be limited to only key players. To ensure interaction among participants, the optimal workshop size is 15 to 20 participants. It is recommend that a subset of participants be identified in advance to consolidate the results of the workshop with the FEL roadmap and checklists produced in the workshop.
