Purpose

Since my life’s odometer has just rolled past 30 years and I am obsessed with things like Schedule, Cost & Performance. I decided to start this website, title it Nelson v3.0 and dedicate it to everything Project Management. Look for future release versions as the years continue to roll on by.

I know, Project Management doesn’t sound like a very exciting topic at first. However, I’ve been working as a Project Manager for close to seven years now spanning from Engineering, to Mining & Metallurgy, to Information Technology. I believe that Project Management is one of those key elements that, if practiced and executed well, will improve efficiency, as well as effectiveness, within any organization.

The more I reflect on it, the more I realize that I tend to apply Project Management tools to just about every aspect of my life. I’ve led the development of a MMOG, provided a Metallurgical Site with an Equipment Strategy and even applied 5S to my own house in attempt to eliminate unnecessary weekend chores (to the the mild agitation of my wife).

This site will be full of the methods & tools that I run into along my journey in the Project Management field, as well as some of the projects that I’m involved with.
