<p>And that Olympic Dam is an amazing, it's an amazing, it's sort of project actually, it's what we call a mega project, which is made up of a whole bunch of different projects.</p>
<p>The credit really with the people, it's not with me, I help facilitate, I give them the tools, they come in or come up with a solution. But this case, I won't even give more credit because there are a number of change agents there who are already on the ball with where we're going.</p>
<p>And there has to be a clear distinction here between two worlds, or two environments that were involved in terms of management. One environment is an environment where we've got an ongoing, when I say, ongoing operations, where we've got orders coming in, we're supplying those orders. I mean, that's got challenges in itself. But it's basically an ongoing operations, which is cause obviously being tweaked the whole time, as you're going in there. But the world of projects is a very different environment, the world of projects, is a world where we're talking about when you've got something which is non-routine.</p>
<p>So how do people generally deal with uncertainty in projects, any, any experienced project manager will tell you, if he hasn't been trained in critical chain hasn't had the TOC training, they'll tell you Well, the way we deal with risk mitigation is we have to build safety buffers into the various tasks of the project. Now, that seems to make sense.</p>
<p>How is it and this done so much research on it, the best companies, less than 30% of these projects come in, on the trip precious triangle of scope, in terms of what the what you're meant to be delivering schedule,</p>Links
