Full Description

This paper discusses how project owners who lack the in-house staff and tools to effectively plan and manage significant projectshave the option to utilize the services of an independent Construction Management firm to manage theentire process: planning; selecting and managing the designer and contractor; and, supervisingconstruction.In other cases, owners may only need specific Construction Management staff and services, projectestimators and schedulers who will work with staff and construction inspectors to monitor theconstruction.Construction Management works equally effectively for both of the above situations, by matching servicesand staff to the needs of the project. The process is structured differently: for one need, theConstruction Management will work as an independent team; whereas, for another need, the ConstructionManagement staff will be integrated with the Owner's in-house staff. Includes tables, figures.
