London’s successful bid for the 2012 Olympic Games created the need for a major regeneration and construction programme to provide the venues and infrastructure needed to stage the Game. Olympic Game is an important event for a country as it will positively impact the hosting country strategically. Countries bid for hosting Olympic Games as this event transforms a country as a strategic initiative. The programme of construction was extensive, technically and politically challenging and up against a fixed deadline of the Opening Ceremony in July 2012. Turning the vision of the Olympic Bid into the reality of roads, bridges, stadium was the job of the Project Manager. ODA (Olympic Delivery Authority) had just over five years to staff up, procure and deliver around £6 billion of major construction works. The majority of the construction works were to be built on a largely polluted site in Stratford, east London. At the same time the ODA needed to satisfy government, media, local residents and the public. PMP (Project Management Professional) course conducted by Shanaka de Silva.
