ARAVUN helps project leaders, decision makers and organisations move forward with confidence and the best solutions for the value and risk management of megaprojects.
Using experience gained from working on well-known megaprojects such as Thameslink and Crossrail2, ARAVUN can help by facilitating workshops and leading you through the challenge to a successful outcome.
The benefits you can expect from working with ARAVUN include:
Leading the project team to a clear definition of the required outcomes (this will free them up to consider options for delivery);
Validating and strengthening the business case for a project;
Getting consensus on a project in the early stages, without disregarding dissenting voices;
Determining needs of key stakeholder and identifying innovative ways to meet them;
Demonstrating to government or the Board that you’re getting the most out of the investment in the project.
Research shows that change costs 10 times as much at the detailed design stage as it does at concept.
This increases to 10,000 times higher after the project has ended.

What is it like working with ARAVUN?
Karlene pays great attention to detail and has the capacity to understand complex issues and develop practical solutions to these complex issues. Karlene is a pleasure to work with, as she is always enthusiastic, energetic and focused on actions and priorities.
Karlene lectured MSc students at the University of Greenwich where she shared her excellent knowledge of value management and risk management (both quantitative and qualitative), on our Risk Management module. She provided valuable insights into these areas and we hope that she'll come back again to speak to our students in the future.
Karlene spoke at the Danish Society of Engineers, International Risk conference and she made the benefits of combining risk and value management on projects clear. Karlene has an impressive portfolio and it's easy to see why, with her strength in advising megaprojects on risk and value management. Her presentation was insightful, engaging and useful. I would not hesitate to recommend Karlene as a Speaker.
