Manage supplier objectives effectively to align project and organizational success within your organization. This book introduces a dedicated method for suppliers to follow to ensure that all relevant targets and expectations are successfully meet. The method integrates a day-to-day high awareness, urgency, and focus on the management of all relevant objectives within the supplier’s project to provide maximum benefit for its organization.
You'll learn that formal targets are routinely established at the start of a project and captured in a contract or project charter. Formal customer expectations, such as timelines, scope, and budget, have high focus and are often pitted against internal day-to-day challenges, such as cost increases and other unexpected changes. These challenges can seem even more daunting as a project progresses, especially when other stakeholders have expectations as well. When not managed properly, this can obstruct the focus of less urgent or informal objectives, such as employee development, process assets, and lessons learned, some of which provide a critical benefit for the supplier’s organization and its future.
To combat this, you'll follow detailed instructions on how to handle such potential roadblocks and how to focus on achieving all relevant project objectives by applying the established method. Each chapter expands the dedicated method itself and provides insight into this philosophy. In the end you'll have all the necessary prerequisites for a successful implementation of these principles within your organization.
What You Will Learn
- Define organizational objectives aligned with the organization’s purpose and values
- Prioritize and align project specific objectives with the organizational objectives
- Facilitate to achieve the project objectives
- Handle day-to-day challenges with managing the project objectives
- Balance customer and supplier targets and expectations

About the Author
Reitse van der Wekken works as project manager at Allseas, a world-leading contractor in the offshore energy market, where he leads innovative offshore platform decommissioning and installation projects, mostly located on the North Sea in Europe. In 1996 he received his MSc degree in mechanical engineering at the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands. Thereafter he started working as project manager on international projects at German multinational Siemens, delivering automation, control and electrical systems for harbor cranes. Driven by a long-term interest in offshore engineering and construction, in 2012 Reitse moved on to Allseas. Since then he has continued his research and writing about project objectives management.
He lives with his wife and two children in the city of Delft in The Netherlands. When not reading, writing, or relaxing with his family and friends, you might find him at sea sailing. His book Project Objectives Management and the project management method introduced in it, is the result of more than two decades of interest and writing about project objectives management, a topic that highly interests and challenges him on a daily basis as a project management professional.
