Project management is at the heart of what makes a construction project flow. While it deals with the technical sides of budgeting and execution, it also requires a people component, where project managers have to work with the individual needs of the builders, stakeholders, and community.
However, project management is one of those terms that can conjure up all sorts of negative images and it is often associated with large scale, difficult tasks and carries implicit references to risk and the potential for things to go horribly wrong. When we think of project management, we often think of big schemes like super tall buildings, nuclear power stations and rail links. In reality, project management applies to small-scale as well as large-scale activity. So even projects that are relatively small – and that includes a domestic self-build or renovation – need to be managed. But by whom? This is where a project manager comes in; to oversee and manage the construction, refurbishment/ renovation process, from initial planning, to move-in day and beyond, as well as to keep projects on time and on budget.
