Our Mission
To be the top-of-mind provider of qualified, experienced talent to our clients without the long term employment commitments associated with these professionals.
WorkWise North America believes that engineering and technical knowledge should not just be about building and maintaining heavy industry, but where applicable, should be used to enhance our daily lives. To this end we will freely share our knowledge with our website visitors.
We will post articles that pertain to various topics in solving engineering and project management problems or issues. These articles will be based on real life projects, situations or research.
Our section on Consumer Tips is intended to apply engineering knowledge in cost effectively improving or benefitting the lives of those who read these tips or shared knowledge. Greater detailed knowledge of the things in our daily lives can help us achieve greater utility from our possessions, endeavours and activities.
WHY CHOOSE US
- We minimize the likelihood and occurrence of expensive mistakes in asset management, projects, or daily work execution by providing the scarce, more advanced skills of accomplished professionals with success spanning decades in their respective fields of expertise. All of our professionals have spent their careers innovating, creatively solving problems, applying resourcefulness and doing what it takes to meet tough deadlines. Where mistakes have been made, we formulate strategies for damage control and recovery.
- We are all well known in the business and are re-hired many times by our former employers as needed. Our repeat clients are the several world class petrochemical and heavy industrial plants in Trinidad Tobago and other countries owned and operated by North American and European multinationals and, or governments.
- Our brand is our results. We seamlessly go from big picture to fine details going beyond identifying problems or obstacles. We formulate strategies to solve them now, or permanently engineer them out of the system. We are the ones who have actually done work quality control, supervised field work, planning, troubleshooting, design reviews, implementation, budgeting, cost control, claims management, and supervised contractors and consultants.
- Our professionals are now all available for very short, or longer term assignments as required. No need to incur the heavy commitment of hiring full time senior professionals.
- Our clients get the benefit of our senior professionals being always available for consultation to the less experienced team members even if only the latter are directly hired by clients. We mentor the less experienced in our teams as a means to ultimately increase the skill levels of all team members.
- For all of the above reasons, we get up to full work speed in hours or a few days, not weeks or months.
- We have no organizational baggage or conflicts of interest.
FEES:
We provide an upfront written proposal on all fees for any assignment. There will be no surprises on cost of our services for the duration of any assignment. We strive to be competitive for the value that we offer.
OUR VALUES
We hold professional integrity as one of the core values of our business. We will carry out our
duties to the best of our knowledge at all times, always striving for best practice and
transparency in all that we do. We respect our clients’ interests and operations to the extent that their interests are the reason

efforts. Simultaneous with taking our core values very seriously, we are individuals who enjoy our work,
enjoy interacting with others, laugh and cherish memorable achievements together.

HOUSEHOLD TIPS
Hello world!
Rescuing Troubled / Delayed/ Cost Over run Construction Projects
Troubled projects are not just projects that have been delayed in delivery although this is a key indicator of trouble. In this item we define a troubled project as one that has encountered any one or more difficulties such that the project does not meet its key requirements of fitness of purpose, delivery on time and within budgeted cost.
What separates a good PM from a great PM
Drive – The persistence or stamina to get things done. This is the fuel that makes us ask "what else needs to be done? What can cause me a delay? Approvals? Budget allocation? Design? etc. Drive keeps us focused on doing the things that will see us to the finish line, even if some of the lesser tasks get missed or relegated to "later" Without drive, everything becomes a chore instead of an action in the day's lineup. And when everything is a chore, only the absolute minimum gets done. Not a good scenario.
