Reimagining Capital Projects

Major capital projects are experiencing much uncertainty - from delivery timelines to understanding supply chain networks. All due to the challenges created by COVID-19. The scale of the pandemic itself couldn’t have been anticipated. However, examining the lessons learned from COVID-19 and other Black Swan (or unforeseen) events on major works will certainly help us plan better for the future and help us mitigate risk.

Host Eoin O'Murchu is joined by Sean Lynch, Deputy Supply Chain Director for Hinkley Point C, as well as Neil Broadhead, PwC’s Capital Projects and Infrastructure Leader, and Alpesh Shah, a Partner in PwC’s Risk Analytics Practice. Together, they discuss how not to focus on specific Black Swan events, but instead on the critical consequences for which each business and project can plan.
