### [It's not all Engineering - How Important is Project Controls to the Engineering Process?](https://percheronllc-4612435.hs-sites.com/its-not-all-engineering-how-important-is-project-controls-to-the-engineering-process)

Feb 16, 2021 7:30:00 AM

I have had the great privilege of working in Project Management and Project Controls in Canada, the Middle East, South America, and in both the DJ Basin (Colorado) and the Delaware Basin (Texas). My experiences have included engineering firms, industrial construction, and pipeline installation companies as well as with an Oil & Gas operator. One thing I have learned, sometimes the hard way, is that good Project Management requires good Project Controls. One coupled without the other is a potential for poor project execution, cost and schedule overruns, and the development of a project without an understanding of what risks could occur and how best to mitigate them.
