Value-Driven Approach to Facilities Project Management (13 - 14 May 2024) The Gardens Hotel, Kuala Lumpur

OVERVIEW


In today’s competitive business environment, organisations need to keep changing and upgrading to improve their products or services to remain relevant and competitive. As an organisation changer, facilities are also required to undergo transformations to support and enable organizational change.


Facilities management effort is largely aimed at conducting continual facilities improvements since most repetitive activities have been outsourced. The primary focus is adding value to its organisation through initiating and implementing projects that support business objectives, needs, changes and challenges.


Project management skills are more important now than ever, in the new normal after Covid, for facilities managers to provide leadership in initiating facilities solutions to support organizational change and enhancing facilities services to be innovative, productive, and create a better-quality workplace.


Managing facilities projects is different from managing routine tasks. The primary responsibilities are to plan, organize, and control a project to its successful completion and to ensure smooth transition to operations. To do that, the facilities manager needs to gather what work needs to be done, get the right resources to the right work, manage the communication among all the stakeholders, people who have vested interest in the project, involved and control the plan when the project requirements change.


Chances are you have been or are anticipating being tasked to manage projects because you have shown great success getting tasks done. When that happens, you will be tempted to neglect the strategic aspect of the facilities management’s role and immerse yourself in the tactical and operational aspects.


This seminar sets out to demystify the project management process and equip the team with the tools and techniques to control as well as deliver projects in line with expectations. Participants will be shown how to define a project brief, assign responsibilities, produce a time plan, communicate and measure progress, troubleshoot, control documents and to assemble support. The trainer will take delegates through a tried and tested facility project knowledge and illustrate the application of a feasible methodology.

Procurement Fraud Risks, Audit and Internal Controls for Public and Private Sectors (23 - 24 April 2025) St. Giles Boulevard Hotel, Kuala Lumpur

February 25, 2025
OVERVIEW Protect Your Business Against Expensive Malpractices and Fraudulent Behaviour The rise in contract management and the outsourcing of goods and services has created an increase in procurement fraud, which can occur at any stage of the contracting and procurement process. Appropriate controls, fraud prevention strategies and proper tendering processes are necessary in the fight against this fraud. It is important to remember that maintenance of financial controls remains critical in this age of digitalisation. Public and private sectors must continue to comply with legal responsibilities and related guidance on financial governance. It is essential that all staff maintain financial records and decision logs – regardless of any circumstances - so that audit trails are preserved . Procurement, finance, and payroll staff – as well as those who requisition or authorise the purchase of goods, services and works should familiarise themselves with the controls set out to prevent fraud , identify key parameters for auditors in assessing the risk of sub-optimal procurement, and how they should prioritise and conduct their audits to check if these risks have materialised, including the risk of fraud and corruption. Procurement fraud can occur through departmental purchasing of goods and services, as well as through contractual arrangements with external service providers. It can occur in many different ways. Fraud within the procurement life cycle is high risk and can result in recurring losses. You may be at risk due to fraudulent activities conducted by internal staff, collusion between internal staff and external service providers or external service provider or industry collusion. This workshop offers insight into the specific risks and possible management techniques in procurement in good or tough times. This 14 hours training programme would equip participants with the knowledge, skills, and techniques to deter, prevent, and detect various devastating types of fraud. Learn how to identify procurement fraud situations, uncover rogue operatives and threats and provide a higher level of transparency and control over all elements of your purchasing requirements.
