Construction Management (CM) is a professional service that uses specialized, project management techniques to oversee the planning, design, and construction of a project, from its beginning to its end. The purpose of CM is to control a project’s time / delivery, cost and quality—sometimes referred to as a project management triangle or “triple constraints.” CM is compatible with all project delivery systems, including design-bid-build, design-build, CM At-Risk and Public Private Partnerships. Professional construction managers may be reserved for lengthy, large-scale, high budget undertakings.
Construction supervision and management involve overseeing and coordinating the construction of a project. It manages resources, including labor, materials, equipment, and finances, to achieve project objectives within the defined timeframe and budget.
Planning and scheduling: Develop a construction plan, set milestones, and create a schedule.
Budgeting and cost control: Estimate costs, create budgets, and monitor expenses.
Procurement and material management: Oversee material procurement, delivery, and quality control.
Overall, construction supervision and management coordinate all aspects of a project, requiring strong organizational, communication, and leadership skills.
