Project Management inclusion - maintenance

Every generation needs a revolution - an entrepreneurial revolution

Every project management plan must include:

     1.  Project plans and estimate

     2.  Construction -  building it

     3.  Maintenance -  keeping the structure new and clean

The same thing with cost estimate.   Cost estimate must include the 3.  

Some offers or bid may be low for #2, but expensive in the long run for 3.   We see that in car repairs, very difficult to remove parts costs much.  Some parts may be cheap but difficult to install.

Management of water resources

Every generation needs a revolution - an entrepreneurial revolution

It is funny to think that PBBM wishes that there is another entity to manage our water resources.  In the debate with Manny Pacquiao, the boxer mentioned of establishing a water department

Indeed it comes as a surprise that water is in stages of plenty and shortages:   floods and low water supply.  We experience floods and no water at times and indeed are people in relevant jobs doing their tasks well enough

Having travelled abroad, it was observed that in a southern continent country there are sips, small impounding ponds to control floods flow and store water for the dry season.   In Singapore, there are underground cisterns required of buildings to collect rainwater during rainy season, and to use the stored water for domestic purposes later on

Yes we can do this here   In the future, the battle for resources will be for water resources.   NWRB!!!

The thing is we do not have to invest in desaination plants  All we have to do is to conserve

This is not a rocket science.  This is a well open, public information

More education on and learning needed by public sector in crisis management?

 Makati City, PHL    November 15, 2013

                     

Ochoa, Almendras now in charge of relief operations

We were discussing with some AGSB professors critiquing the management and leadership of the Yolanda typhoon victims relief operations. We may say that the way CNN criticized PNOY was uncalled for but our kababayan were at the bad end of mismanagement and lack of forceful leadership. 

The supertyphoon was bad enough but the allegations on the challenges of  the ground operations definitely needed improvement:    relief distribution, relief , id of the dead, their retrieval and burial, security, cleandliness and clearing operations, and even handling of pr and interviews.  We were pitiful due to the typhoon, and we were sorry mess in the management of the crisis.  Some further  education of public sector is  needed on how to manage and lead such difficulties

Education leads to better action and handling of difficulties.

We had an MBAH student before who was the deputy of the Disaster Coordinating Council a Dr. and I gave my kudos for the able handling of the disaster in Infanta and Real Quezon (he handled it better than Americans handled Katrina victims)  He became a congressman in the central Visayas.  People were satisfied with how handled the disaster.

The university must practice what it preaches

In many of the NU 12 ideas of the students on how the school is being run, the following comes out regularly:

l.  The P200.00 fine for ids left at home.  In the age of QR codes and Iphone, this is unacceptable to many students;

2.  The toilet facilities;

3.  The parking fee (it should be free)  (Why not include in the tuition)

4.  The unreliable on line enrollment;

5.  No one intranet system in the school

I also noticed that when I complained on a physical plant item (a leaking flush as it wastes water) nothing came out of it.

The university management must practice good management because it is a school of management.
