Strengths, shared features and improvable aspects are appropriately presented in each case. Insights, intangibles and details of each experience are also evidenced and the key elements of success are highlighted, as retrieved from direct contact with project managers, in order to serve as possible inspiration. The contact details of the person/entity responsible for answering questions on each initiative are also provided in each case.
