PROJECT MANAGEMENT IN GENERAL
Although the term Project Management is becoming more familiar, it is evident that many people are still uncertain about the nature of services provided. Perhaps the most important aspect to point out is that all services stem from the same objective, to represent and protect the client’s interests throughout the entire engagement. As the word suggest a project manager is a consultant or company appointed on the client’s behalf to co-ordinate, supervise & control the entire project including all other parties such as architect & contractor, etc.
The project manager also acts as a ‘ one point ‘ contact and takes on the responsibility for ensuring, amongst other things, that all client request are communicated and incorporated in the works.
Apart from an active service, most project management companies and certainly construction consultancies, also offer a single source of information regarding procedures, legalities and costs. The intention of the advisory service is to enable the clients to see an overall view of involvement and expenditure before any commitment is made.
In conclusion, it is with little doubt that any client considering a construction project, either private work or development, large or small, would stand to benefit from at least an initial consultation before venturing into the unknown.
