CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT

Construction project management involves directing and organizing each part of the project life cycle, from ideation to completion. It’s a holistic practice with the goal of delivering projects on time and under budget. Construction project management is a complex discipline that requires addressing many important concerns, including cost control, scheduling, procurement, and risk assessment. Project managers interact with all team members involved in a construction project, from architects to owners to contractors.

Construction project management involves team members from financial planners and C-suite executives to contractors, engineers, on-the-ground crew members, and others. None are as critical to the process, however, as the project manager. The role of project manager may be filled by a contractor, an owner who handles projects in-house, or even a dedicated construction manager.
