In the world of finance projects – where accuracy, compliance and tight budgets are nonnegotiable – scope creep can easily turn a well-defined engagement into a resource drain.

Hay un tipo de calor que no se discute. No es “qué lindo día”, ni “se siente pesado”. Es el calor que te obliga a cambiar planes, a buscar sombra como si fuera un lujo. Ese calor volvió a aparecer con fuerza en América Latina entre el cierre de diciembre de 2025 y los primeros días de enero de 2026, con registros que, en varios lugares, quedaron cerca de marcas récord para la época.

It is a learning environment, an employer, a cultural institution, a civic landmark, a landlord, a transportation network, a public realm, and in many towns, the closest thing to a year-round destination resort.

Put simply: the holidays won’t just be “busy.” They’ll be pressure-tests for city centres, infrastructure, housing, and resident tolerance.
