4. What is Construction Management ?
Construction Management is a professional service that applies effective management techniques to the planning, design and construction of a project from inception to completion for the purpose of controlling time, cost and quality.

5. Construction Management Values
Construction Management is a discipline and management system specifically created to promote the successful execution of capital projects for owners.
These projects can be highly complex. Few owners maintain the staff resources necessary to pay close, continuing attention to every detail; yet these details can “make or break” a project.

Collaboration
The new imperative for today’s complex construction projects and programs.
Collaboration is everyone’s responsibility.
CM provides leadership and coordinates a multi-disciplinary team.
Owners don’t want stars – they want successful projects.
Stars tend to be charismatic leaders not character based leaders
