In the Construction industry, all the stakeholders such as Clients/ Consultants/ Contractors/ Authorities involved in projects aspire that they are successfully implemented based on scope, cost, time and quality.
However, of late there are projects that are delayed, low quality output, cost overrun, misunderstandings, miscommunication, conflicts amongst personnel, conflicts amongst different tradesmen, flash floods, soil erosion, disputes, low profits, many defects and also failures.
Why are all these happenings? Could it be due to lack in management? Could it be due to unrealistic project program? Could it be due to lack of drawings & specifications? Could it be due lack of understanding of contract conditions? Could it be due to unrealistic works program? Could it be due lack of understanding of completion of works? Could it be due to lack of knowledge of local bye laws & Acts? Could it be due to lack of planning & scheduling? Could it be due to lack of organizing & implementing? Could it be due to lack of monitoring & control? Could it be due to lack of understanding of 8M (resources) Could it be due to lack of understanding of WBS (work breakdown structure) Could it be due to laxity in construction safety? Could it be due to laxity in ethics?
Thus, it is imperative that stakeholders grasp and understand the knowledge on Construction Project Management and its relation to Scope, Cost, Time And Quality. This is ensured that the project can be implemented successfully.
