Project:Hack 4

The Project Data Analytics Community was created to share best practise on leveraging data within a project, programme and portfolio environment. We all know that data has the potential to transform how projects, programmes and portfolios are delivered, but practical implementation constraints often prevent the full value from being realised.We run Hackathons and meetups to explore some of the challenges at the intersection of data analysis and project, programme and portfolio management and discuss how practitioners are working to resolve them, underpinned by real world examples.We also explore how machine learning and AI can help to resolve some of the challenges at the intersection of project / programme management and big data.Please check out our community site athttp://projectdataanalytics.uk. We are in the process of refreshing it but it will have details of events, community news, videos, slides, blogs and a series of resources on how to get started in project data analytics.

<P>Would you like to help to shape how projects are delivered in the future? <SPAN>You'll have an opportunity to work with others who share this vision and passion. You'll also get the opportunity to influence some major players in the construction industry. We are working on datasets and hope to announce more details in the coming weeks.</SPAN></P>
<P>Data science will transform how projects are delivered, saving billions for society, improving certainty in outcomes and changing the face of the project management profession forever. Project:Hack aims to:</P>
<UL>
<LI>
<P>Explore methods and tools to transform how insights and value can be extracted from project data. Ranging from risk and schedule data through to on site presence of personnel.</P>
</LI>
<LI>
<P>Enable delivery professionals to understand the predisposition of projects to specific challenges, to predict them arising and take action to avoid the avoidable.</P>
</LI>
<LI>
<P>Ignite the professional imagination on what can be achieved and shape the future of project delivery.</P>
</LI>
</UL>

<H3><SPAN>Let’s get started!</SPAN></H3>
<P>We'll start the day by introducing the challenges and the data sets. You'll then have the opportunity to pitch your idea to the crowd to invite team members, or join a team whose idea you want to work on. You'll then spend two days developing the concepts, interrogating the data, building proof of concepts and delivering a solid pitch to support it. Finally, you'll get the opportunity to present to industry experts who will judge your proposal. Not only will you have the kudos associated with shaping the future of project management, but we will be awarding prizes too.</P>
<H3>Happy to support you!</H3>
<P>There will be on-ground support. Data scientists, PowerBI experts and subject matter experts will help you with technical queries and mentors will guide you towards the perfect pitch.</P>
<P>It promises to be a great couple of days with food, drinks, ideas and bucket loads of fun. The only requirement is to come with a lot of bright ideas and enthusiasm!</P>
<P>Space is limited, so please secure your place here as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.</P>
