Paperback. You can build the thing. Can you run the project?You can design the system, run the analysis, and verify the result. Then someone hands you a project - and overnight the job is schedules, budgets, stakeholders, risk, and a hundred decisions a week your engineering training never covered.This handbook is written for that engineer. It teaches project management the way an engineer learns best: as a system, with the parts shown to fit together rather than scattered as a list of tips.The organizing idea is that a well-run project is a control loop: The baseline is the set point.Earned value and the metrics are the sensor.Variance analysis is the comparator.The project manager and the governance are the controller.The risks are the disturbances the loop exists to reject.If you already think in control systems, tolerances, interfaces, and verification, you are most of the way there - you mainly need to transpose those habits and learn the human and organizational dimensions your degree skipped.What makes this handbook differentEvery formula is worked. Estimating mathematics, critical-path forward and backward passes, earned-value calculations, three-point estimates, decision trees, and quantitative risk analysis appear as calculations carried through on real numbers - so you follow the method and check your own work, instead of memorizing a formula you never see applied.One project runs through the entire book. A single capital project threads from the first planning chapter to the last, its numbers consistent across all 38 chapters.

You can build the thing. Can you run the project?
You can design the system, run the analysis, and verify the result. Then someone hands you a project — and overnight the job is schedules, budgets, stakeholders, risk, and a hundred decisions a week your engineering training never covered.
This handbook is written for that engineer. It teaches project management the way an engineer learns best: as a system, with the parts shown to fit together rather than scattered as a list of tips.
The organizing idea is that a well-run project is a control loop:
- The baseline is the set point.
- Earned value and the metrics are the sensor.
- Variance analysis is the comparator.
- The project manager and the governance are the controller.
- The risks are the disturbances the loop exists to reject.
If you already think in control systems, tolerances, interfaces, and verification, you are most of the way there — you mainly need to transpose those habits and learn the human and organizational dimensions your degree skipped.
What makes this handbook different
- Every formula is worked. Estimating mathematics, critical-path forward and backward passes, earned-value calculations, three-point estimates, decision trees, and quantitative risk analysis appear as calculations carried through on real numbers — so you follow the method and check your own work, instead of memorizing a formula you never see applied.
- One project runs through the entire book. A single capital project threads from the first planning chapter to the last, its numbers consistent across all 38 chapters. Four further case studies — a compressed-schedule launch, a fixed-price dispute, a hybrid hardware-and-firmware program, and a recovery — put the principles under different kinds of pressure.
- It is honest about the hard parts. The silent quality trade. The optimism that underestimates every project. The dashboard that reports green while the project slides. The project that should be stopped but isn't. This book names those failure patterns and shows the disciplines that prevent them.
Inside, you will find
- The work breakdown structure, estimating, and critical-path scheduling
- Budgeting, earned value, and cost control
- Risk identification, analysis, and response
- Execution, monitoring, change control, and quality
- Leading a team you don't control, communication, and negotiation
- Procurement and contracts
- Agile, hybrid delivery, and AI-assisted project work
- Programs, portfolios, recovery, and closeout
A full appendix set adds templates, a formula reference card, a schedule-quality checklist, calibration worksheets, a meeting-cadence pack, a glossary, and worked solutions.
Run your next project like the engineer you already are
The next project you are handed will not wait while you learn this on the job. Put a complete project-management system on your desk before you need it — get your copy of The Engineering Project Management Handbook today.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
