Project Management For Engineering and Construction

This document provides an overview of project management for engineering and construction projects. It outlines the key steps and concepts involved, including project definition, scope, budgeting, planning, scheduling, tracking, and close out. Project management is concerned with what must be done, when, how much it will cost, and coordinating overall needs from a multi-discipline perspective. In contrast, discipline management focuses on how work will be done, who will do it, how well it will be done, and providing technical expertise from a single discipline perspective. The document also discusses working with project teams, including design and construction teams, and factors like team leadership, building, and conflict management.
