Construction Project Management
Construction projects are highly structured endeavors. Whether the project involves the construction of a shopping mall or a single-family home, there are numerous moving parts that must be precisely coordinated.
Construction project management, like any other project, has stages. Different stages may range from design to planning to scheduling to construction and each phase may develop several sub-stages as the project begins to progress.
Construction management is the process of overseeing construction projects. When comparing construction project management to other types of projects, the main difference is that construction projects are mission-driven. That is, the project’s objective concludes with the project’s completion. But considering the general scenario seen in project management, it involves managing resources of a project through various tools and methodologies to control scope, cost, time, quality, etc.
The two main types of construction fall under the category of:
- Residential
- Commercial
The projects coming under residential & commercial construction can be further classified as:
- Home Building
- Renovation Works
- Heavy Industrial Construction
- Commercial/Institutional Construction
- Engineering Construction
There are various types of construction projects, each with its own set of challenges. All of them, however, necessitate the presence of a project owner, construction project manager, and general contractor.
To lead a construction project from concept to completion, a wide range of skills are required, along with following the process.
- Project Initiation – Build an outline and kick start the project. This stage is important to identify potential risks and issues that may come across developing the project
- Project Planning – Detailing the cost, scope, duration, schedule and other aspects comes in this part. Form your team and start arranging materials, documents and communications.
- Project Execution – This stage involves dealing with customers, team members, project owner and delivering tasks and resource allocation as per time frame set.
- Project Monitoring and Control – Project Monitoring helps understands the progress of the project and regular monitoring is the key factor to control expense, time, quality, etc.
- Project Completion – Successful completion of the project is a combination of various factors that we have discussed here. Construction Project Management is thus the backbone of every successful project.
