    Construction project management involves planning, coordinating, and controlling all aspects of a construction project from beginning to completion. The project manager is primarily responsible for construction management, which includes planning the job and overseeing its progress. Key responsibilities are creating clear objectives, managing scope, time, cost, and quality. A project has defined objectives, constraints including time, cost and quality, and lifecycle stages of initiation, planning, execution, and closing. The success of a project relies on effectively managing resources like time, cost, labor, materials, and equipment throughout its lifecycle.

    PROJECT MANAGEMENT
    Introduction
    What is Construction Project Management?

    • It is the overall planning, coordination, and control of a project from


    beginning to completion.
    • It is aimed at meeting a client's requirement in order to produce a functionally
    and financially viable project.
    •The management of construction projects requires knowledge of modern
    management principles as well as an understanding of the design and
    construction process.
    Who does hold the responsibility of Construction Project Management?

    • The Project Manager has the primary responsibility of Construction


    Management, which is planning a particular construction job and
    overseeing its progress along the way.
    •A Project Manager is responsible for accomplishing the stated project
    objectives.
    •Key project management responsibilities include creating clear and
    attainable project objectives, building the project requirements, and
    managing the constraints of the project management triangle, which are
    cost, time, scope, and quality.
    What is a Project?

    “A project is a unique set of co-ordinated activities with definite starting


    and finishing points, undertaken by an individual or organization to meet
    specific objectives within defined time schedule, cost and performance”
    Every project is unique in its own way; there are certain basics which define
    most project work.
    These are:
    •objectives,
    •constraints,
    •lifecycle.
    Construction Management

    • Significance & Objectives


    • Functions
    • Stages of Construction
    • Construction Personnel
    Significance
    • As construction involves various activities starting from the
    design and planning to project completion and quality check,
    there is a exorbitant need for Management of construction.
    • Construction Industry plays a crucial role in the economy and
    development of a nation.
    Objectives
     To complete the project in specified time and with allocated budget.
     To Plan and schedule the work and distribute between various
    departments. Deployment of personnel in Different tasks.
     To achieve High quality workmanship.
     Creating an organisation that works as a team.
     Using the limited available resources and producing maximum
    output.
     Providing safe and satisfactory working conditions for all
    personnel and workers.

    Project Constraints

    • Each project needs to be performed and delivered under certain constraints.


    These constraints are typically as shown below:

    •Mainly, project management wishes to provide at the end of the project


    a product which is delivered on Time with a high Quality and minimum
    Cost. However, it is practically difficult to achieve this.
    •The reduction of project’s time involves increasing cost (this could
    mean using extra labour and equipment), or reducing quality of work.
    Project Lifecycle (Project Development Stages)
    •INITIATION: At this stage, project’s scope is determined. An understanding of
    the business environment to make sure that all the project’s key controls are fully
    addressed and incorporated into the project. If this stage is not performed well, it
    is unlikely that the project is going to be successful in meeting the needs for
    which it was undertaken.

    •PANNING & DESIGN: After the initiation stage is performed, the project’s
    WBS is designed in addition to all other project’s documents which are prepared
    pre-construction. Occasionally, a prototype of the final project’s product is built
    and tested.

    •EXECUTION: This stage includes the actual procurement of the project’s set
    plan or design.

    •CLOSING & MAINTENANCE: The Closing includes handing the final product
    over to the owner after the project is finished and the formal acceptance is signed
    and published. The Maintenance, which is an ongoing process, includes the
    correction of any errors have ever been made during the project’s execution.
    The figure shown below describes the activity of work during the project lifecycle:
    Project Resources
    Any project’s resources can be classified as follows:
    - Time
    - Cost (Money)
    - Labour (Man-power)
    - Materials
    - Equipment (Machines)

    • In order to improve the application of any of the 4Ms (Money, Man-power, Materials,
    and Machines), so that they become more efficient and productive and therefore finishing
    the project on Time and at the required level of Quality, a control system of each resource
    should be prepared. For example:
    • To improve Man-power, (motivation, leadership, safety, productivity, and scheduling)
    should be improved.
    • To improve the application of Machines, (productivity, Scheduling, construction method,
    and contracts) should be improved.
    • To improve the use of Materials, (scheduling, quality, chemical, suitability, and
    purchasing/hiring) should be improved.
    • To improve the application of Money, (sources of funds, scheduling, estimating, and
    cash-flow) should be improved.
    Project Participants
    Each project, whatever is its type or what kind of construction involves, requires the
    participation of three main parties. These participants are the Owner, Engineer/Designer,
    and Contract. The figure shown below displays the relationship between each of these
    participants:

    In addition to these main participants, there are other sub-players, such as Consultants,
    Suppliers, Sub-contractors, and many others. They are working together under the role of
    the Project Manager in order to deliver the project’s final product.
    Types of Construction Projects

    Construction work mainly includes anything is built and permanently


    attached to the ground. This includes different kinds of structures such as,
    multi-storey buildings, bridges, dams, roads, etc.
    Generally, construction work is classified under one of the following
    categories:
    •Building construction work. [For example, residential complex,
    commercial towers, hospitals, malls, etc.]
    • Engineering construction work. [For example, dams, bridges, airports,
    highways, etc.]
    • Industrial construction work. [For example, petroleum structures,
    electric-power plant, water plants, etc.]
    • Specialised construction work. [For example, deep tunnels, wind
    turbines, etc.]
