Setting projects up for success
Dr Jon Broome provides practical advice, training and workshops to help organisations deliver their projects more successfully. As well as being a recognised expert practitioner on the NEC contract family and on contract strategy for the procurement for projects & programmes, he is also an accomplished facilitator with many of his larger assignments combining all three skills.
For the last 25+ years, Jon has worked for construction and heavy engineering clients, contractors and consultants throughout the world, often working with senior management to develop ‘fit for purpose’ commercial and contractual arrangements to deliver successful projects. This often leads onto using the NEC family of contracts where he can write, review and improve the contract documentation.
However, developing contracts is only part of the success story:
High performing project teams
In many projects, the team comes from numerous organisations with different aims, cultures and systems. As a facilitator, Jon combines ‘hard’ project management processes with applied psychology to rapidly build high performing project teams.
Successful implementation
Training the delivery team on what the contract says and in particular how to implement it successfuly is a skill where Jon has developed a reputation as a knowlegeable, pragmatic and engaging trainer.
Jon works with both the public and private sectors, including well-known national contractors alongside smaller regional contractors. He has delivered innovative ground breaking commercial solutions in the defence, aerospace, ship building and coal-mining sectors.
