  Context

  Industrial Engineering is the science of diagnosing, modeling, simulating, designing, operating, and managing change in the activity systems of organizations. The Industrial Engineering Laboratory (LGI) at CentraleSupélec, a member of the Université Paris-Saclay, focuses on (a) product/service systems marketed by companies, and (b) production or business systems. These systems and the processes they entail are examined throughout their life cycle. That means knowing how to observe, diagnose, design, improve, operate (run, regulate, maintain), and recycle them.

  The LGI has a staff of 100, including 30 teacher-researchers and 60 PhD students, covering design sciences, industrial engineering, automation, computer sciences, economics, and management. The LGI is organized into four research teams, five cross-disciplinary themes, and five industrial chairs. The teams are Design Engineering, Operations Management, Risks, Resilience, Reliability, and Sustainable Economy. The crosscutting industrial and societal themes are mobility systems, energy systems, healthcare systems, the industry of the future, and the circular economy.

  This research project occurs within the Design Engineering team at the crossroads of Project Planning, Contract Management, and Project Risk Management. The project leader is Professor Franck Marle, who has contributed to these themes for many years in research and teaching. He has led several projects on risk management in complex projects with Alstom Transport (Marle & Vidal, 2014), PSA Peugeot-Citroën (now Stellantis) (Jaber et al., 2015), Renault (Jaber et al., 2018), and the CEA (Pointurier et al., 2015). He also managed a Chair on megadevelopment projects for Total, which covered several topics, including the contractual breakdown of projects (Mammeri et al., 2017), risk management adapted to such projects (Marle et al., 2017; Ventroux et al., 2018), and assistance in selecting actions contributing to the long-term development of the host country, whether or not related to the project itself (Vidal et al., 2021).
