JSC Presenting at NA08 - Johnson Stephens Consulting

MHIA Announces that JSC will be presenting at NA08:
Steve Johnson will be presenting “Complexity and Material Handling Equipment Systems Projects: How to Really Make Your Project Succeed!" April 23, 2008 (Wednesday) CLEVELAND, OH – Speakers for NA08 – The Material Handling and Logistics Show and Conference – were recently announced by the Material Handling Industry of America (MHIA) and the Association of Professional Material Handling Consultants (APMHC). In association with APMHC, Steve Johnson, Principal of Johnson Stephens Consulting, will be presenting a practical approach on how to make complex material handling equipment systems projects succeed. MHE Systems projects can be very challenging and complex. For every success that is described in trade publications, there are many that do not reach their potential. Many project delays, cost overruns, and/or design failures can be attributed to decisions that were made early in the project planning and organization stage. The information contained in this session will provide insight into important lessons learned that can be helpful in your next MHE project.

This seminar will focus on practical, real world examples and provide the MHE project owner with a new, easy to apply, “how to" approach for guiding efforts regarding their decisions relative to MHE complexity and the impact of complexity on success. Attendees will leave knowing how to use the MHE Complexity Assessment tool before they begin their next project, large or small. When applied, the assessment results can be used to guide project management to build and staff the right project team, minimize risk, optimize costs and achieve the desired objectives of MHE projects.
