Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

I work for a large construction company who is taking part in a billion dollar mega project. We have several projects of $1-10 million work. Our progress reviews are not based on a programme and a schudular is not even at these meeting. Instead QSs are participating in them. 

What are your thoughts on this practice.

Why bother?  Cost is a consequence of design, procurement and utilisation (schedule control). For some suggestions on how to avoid wasting $1000s on meetings without a purpose see: http://www.mosaicprojects.com.au/WhitePapers/WP1075_Meetings.pdf
