Good Governance in the Delivery of Public Capital Projects

Capital Projects: In this free guidebook, Gerry Galvin, a consultant with decades of experience in Ireland’s civil and public service, examines capital project governance and in particular its application to public sector capital projects.

Key learnings include:

• How you can demonstrate that the best value for money is being achieved in meeting the project’s objectives.
• Where to put good governance processes in place for the future.
• How capturing project data in a central repository, synthesized into management reports and escalated appropriately, enables timely decision-making.
