Construction management: outline work plan

Revision as of 10:40, 30 October 2013

An outline work plan for a project following a construction management procurement route is presented below. Project plans for other procurement routes are available by clicking here.

Clicking on any of the stages will open up the detailed tasks necessary to complete that stage. Together the tasks represent a single, consolidated project plan from the first moment it becomes apparent a project might be required right through to final evaluation of the completed project.

Notes

1. The stages above are based on the route taken by a project following a construction management procurement route where a construction manager is appointed early in the project as a consultant, and later they take on a management role for the construction of the project. Within this project plan the construction manager is appointed on completion of concept design. Earlier or later appointment will result in some activities being re-allocated between the consultant team and the construction manager (for example the role of cost consultant).
