About the project
University College London (UCL) is inviting applications for a fully funded PhD scholarship (3 years full time) on "Programme Management of Gigaprojects". The PhD Scholarship is situated at UCL's Megaproject Delivery Centre and is part of the AECOM Infrastructure Scholarship Programme, created to advance science in major programme management globally.
Infrastructure provision is a key priority of governments around the world, unlocking societal benefits and enabling economic growth. Given their transformational nature, infrastructure projects are often delivered through megaprojects, which are notoriously difficult to manage and often plagued with cost overruns and delays. Yet, such major programmes are fast increasing in size, requirements, and complexity (Denicol et al., 2020).
UCL's award winning research identified the ingredients of successful megaproject management in six themes, which reveal 18 causes of poor performance and 54 solutions. The theme on Strategy, Governance, and Procurement highlights the importance of establishing the organisational structures to coordinate a large network of suppliers, partners, and stakeholders.
Considering the scale of investments to build entire new cities and rebuild countries, the term Gigaproject is progressively being used to describe a collection of megaprojects (at city, region, country levels) and convey the size of the challenge faced by governments. It is urgent to rethink the strategies needed to deliver infrastructure projects at pace and scale, charting a path for sustainable transitions.
This PhD Scholarship will investigate how to deal with the scale and complexity associated to deliver Gigaprojects. Programme organisations might be established with the purpose of delivering a single of multiple infrastructure schemes, with clients appointing delivery partners to provide capacity and capability in programme management. Such programme organisations have the overall responsibility for integration of the final asset, with the strategy of programme initiation and set-up playing an important role.
The challenge in Gigaprojects is how to balance control and agility, stability and change, creating the structures to maintain overall visibility of best for programme solutions while empowering the supply chain (often organised as joint ventures) to deliver their work packages. The research will investigate coordination and integration of system of systems by exploring topics such as: the initiation of programme delivery organisations, the set-up and evolution of organisational strategies, the decomposability of the Gigaproject into multiple megaprojects, and the inter-(mega)project relationships.
The appointed PhD candidate will be based UCL's Megaproject Delivery Centre and will have the opportunity to collaborate with AECOM's Global Programme Management leadership to disseminate cutting-edge scientific findings. UCL and AECOM are on a mission to advance programme management and improve the delivery of the world's largest infrastructure projects.
