FINLEY TO SPEAK AT ISRAELI ENGINEERS CONFERENCE
TALLAHASSEE, Florida - Craig Finley, president and founder of bridge engineering and construction consultant Finley Engineering Group, is a featured speaker at the annual conference of the Israeli Society of Structural and Infrastructure Engineers. The event will be held November 28, 2006, at the Dan Panorama hotel in Tel-Aviv, Israel.
Finley will speak at the Opening General Session. His talk, entitled "Is it Different? Project Management for Design Build/Fast Track Projects," will address several topics including quality control, construction on preliminary design, scheduling/budgeting and data management.
Finley will also deliver a keynote presentation at the event's Structural Session entitled "Project Management for Bridge Projects - Techniques in Planning and Controlling Design and Construction." In this talk, he will discuss planning, organization, scheduling, budgeting corrective actions and close-out.
"I’Äôm honored and looking forward to speaking at the Israeli Society's conference," says Finley."I've believed for a long time that bridge design and construction professionals from various countries should exchange ideas and experiences a lot more than we do. I've spoken at many conferences in the U.S., but this is an opportunity to address an entirely new and different group. I expect to take away as much from this event as I give."
Finley has had significant experience working in Israel throughout his 25-plus-year career. His firm is currently working on the Road 431 project, a $600 million (U.S. dollars) reconstruction of several kilometers of urban roadway. The project includes nine precast segmental interchange bridges that Finley Engineering Group is designing.
Founded in 2004 and based in Tallahassee, Finley Engineering Group, Inc. (FEG) is a nationally recognized engineering firm specializing in complex bridge projects of all kinds. The firm's niche is supplying the all-important link between engineering and construction on these projects.
