PMC (Project Management Contract)
Construction projects are highly structured endeavors, whether it’s building a shopping mall or a single-dwelling residence. They have a lot of moving parts and people that must be precisely coordinated.
Just like any other project, construction project management has phases, from design to planning to scheduling to the build itself. Each of these phases is complicated enough by themselves, but in concert with the whole project, they grow exponentially more complex.
Before answering that question, it’s important to first have an understanding of what exactly construction management is.
In brief, construction management is the process of managing construction projects. But when you’re talking about managing a construction project in comparison to other types of projects, the distinction is mostly that construction is mission-based. That means that the project’s organization ends with the end of the project's build.
While generally, project management is generally defined as managing resources over the life cycle of a project through various tools and methodologies to control scope, cost, time, quality, etc.—when working in the construction industry, your outlook must be broader. Construction management usually includes a wider variety of constraints to consider that are specific to the design and build of construction projects. Construction project management can interact with a variety of different disciplines in the lifetime of a project as well, from architecture to engineering to public works to city planning.
There are a variety of different types of construction projects depending on the different construction sectors. There are two sectors in construction: residential and commercial. Depending on the sector, there can be up to four different types of projects:
Residential home building and renovation
Heavy industrial construction
Commercial and institutional construction
Engineering construction
That means there are a wide variety of types of construction projects that require construction management in order to be successful. Construction management might be required for a simple home to a large bridge, from engineering a dam to building an airport seismic retrofit project. A construction project manager, then, manages the beginning and end of a project build, often managing on-site to ensure the safe, successful construction.
There are several types of construction projects, and each of them has different challenges. However, all of them need a project owner, a construction project manager, and a general contractor.
These are some of the main responsibilities of a general contractor:
Supervising the work of subcontractors
Setting up job site safety protocols
Applying for building permits and licenses
Disposing construction waste
Managing personnel on the construction site
Communicating with the project owner and construction project manager
A general contractor is selected after the project owner reviews bids from multiple general contractors.
A Lump Sum Contract: A lump sum contract, or fixed price contract, defines a total price for the completion of the project.
Cost Plus Contract: Cost plus fee contracts are made of two parts: a fixed fee that’s agreed upon by the project owner and the contractor, plus additional costs that are added as the project progresses.
Guaranteed maximum price: It’s the same as a cost-plus contract, but a maximum price is defined.
Project Monitoring and Control
You can’t know the progress of your project if you don’t have a way to monitor it. You’ll be doing this during the previous stages of the project, but it’s important enough to demand its own separate stage in your management. You’ll want to have a way to note the progress, which is why you need to set up key performance indicators for cost control, time tracking, and quality assurance. If you can stay on top of these figures, it’s less likely you’ll manage a failing project. Therefore, stay flexible and communicative throughout so you can adapt quickly to change when it occurs, and it always occurs.
Investigate the job site. Check to see if anything needed. The job site must be ready for the construction, which might mean dealing with environmental issues, such as the suitability of the soil for construction.
