Best-in-Class Project Management

Complex, large-scale projects and programs are unique in terms of their requirements, scope, and priorities. WSP’s approach to project and program management is to consider each project as a distinct entity, integrating each component from a holistic perspective. Project and program management is a true collaboration with our clients in order to ensure project delivery is effective, cost-efficient, and innovative from an overarching perspective. We represent your interests throughout all project phases, with our project/program manager overseeing implementation across the planning, design, procurement, construction, and operations stages.

Our team combines extensive industry experience with best-in- class project management processes, techniques, and tools for success. We develop your delivery strategy, overseeing the planning, organization, and control of the work required to implement that strategy. We then establish an appropriate and effective assurance regime; and identify and address any deviations from the plan as they occur.

WSP in Action

Quebec City's long-awaited multi-purpose amphitheatre, known as the Videotron Centre, was inaugurated in September 2015. This capped off the sustained efforts of WSP, which served as project manager throughout the process. Our team was commissioned to manage the project, direct and supervise the professional and engineering teams, and oversee the construction manager. We put in place all the necessary project management procedures, managed the costs and budget monitoring systems, oversaw commissioning and LEED accreditation, monitored risks and opportunities, and managed project changes and documentation. In addition, we were in charge of the technical audit of all documentation developed by the master professionals at all stages of the project for all disciplines involved.
