Overview
Construction Project Management (CPM) is the overall planning, coordination and control of a construction project from inception to completion aimed at meeting a client's requirements in order to produce a functionally and financially viable project that will be completed on time within authorized cost and to the required quality standards.
General CPM activities include defining the responsibilities and management structure of the project management team, organizing and leading by implementing project controls, defining roles and responsibilities and developing communication protocols, and identifying elements of project design and construction likely to give rise to disputes and claims or to cause delays and/or cost overruns. |
|
General CPM functions typically include the following:
1.) |
Specifying project objectives and plans including delineation of scope, budgeting, scheduling, setting performance requirements and benchmarks, and selecting project participants. |
2.) |
Maximizing resource efficiency through procurement of labor, materials, and equipment. |
3.) |
Implementing various operations through proper coordination and control of planning, design, estimating, contracting and construction in the entire process. |
4.) |
Developing effective communications and mechanisms for resolving conflicts. |
JBA's decades of Civil Engineering and Land Surveying experience has given us the opportunity to provide CPM and Design-Build services for dozens of projects, including recreational facilities in Lake Perris, CA, a 64-lot residential subdivision in Loma Linda, CA, a 300-unit mobile home park in Ventura, CA, a co-generation system in Fullerton, CA, a 24,000 square foot concrete tilt-up office building in San Bernardino, CA, a 54,000 square foot industrial building in Rancho Cucamonga, CA, a 100-unit apartment complex in San Benardino, CA, a 30,000 square foot office building in Cerritos, CA, and a 10,000 square foot multi-use medical office in Palmdale, CA.. This cumulative experience prompted us in recent years to develop our own Construction Management Practice Manual (CMPM). Our CMPM has proven to be an invaluable resource for our construction managment professionals throughout the life of development projects.
JBA routinely utilizes industry-standard CPM, scheduling, and project accounting tools such as Microsoft Sharepoint (for secure tracking, document control, file storage/versioning, and reporting), Microsoft Project, AutoDesk Vault (for PS&E distribution and versioning) and Quickbooks Accountant Pro. |
