6、il and Environmental Engineering, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA 15213.This book develops a specific viewpoint in discussing the participants, the processes and the techniques of project management for construction. This viewpoint is that of owners who desire completion of projects in a
7、timely, cost effective fashion. Some profound implications for the objectives and methods of project management result from this perspective: The life cycle of costs and benefits from initial planning through operation and disposal of a facility are relevant to decision making. An owner is concerned
8、 with a project from the cradle to the grave. Construction costs represent only one portion of the overall life cycle costs. Optimizing performance at one stage of the process may not be beneficial overall if additional costs or delays occur elsewhere. For example, saving money on the design process
9、 will be a false economy if the result is excess construction costs. Fragmentation of project management among different specialists may be necessary, but good communication and coordination among the participants is essential to accomplish the overall goals of the project. New information technolog
10、ies can be instrumental in this process, especially the Internet and specialized Extranets. Productivity improvements are always of importance and value. As a result, introducing new materials and automated construction processes is always desirable as long as they are less expensive and are consist
11、ent with desired performance. Quality of work and performance are critically important to the success of a project since it is the owner who will have to live with the results. In essence, adopting the viewpoint of the owner focuses attention on the cost effectiveness of facility construction rather
12、 than competitive provision of services by the various participants. While this book is devoted to a particular viewpoint with respect to project management for construction, it is not solely intended for owners and their direct representatives. By understanding the entire process, all participants
13、can respond more effectively to the owners needs in their own work, in marketing their services, and in communicating with other participants. In addition, the specific techniques and tools discussed in this book (such as economic evaluation, scheduling, management information systems, etc.) can be
14、readily applied to any portion of the process. As a result of the focus on the effective management of entire projects, a number of novel organizational approaches and techniques become of interest. First and foremost is the incentive to replace confrontation and adversarial relationships with a spi
15、rit of joint endeavor, partnership and accomplishment. For example, we discuss the appropriate means to evaluate risks and the appropriate participants to assume the unavoidable risks associated with constructed facilities. Scheduling, communication of data, and quality assurance have particular sig
16、nificance from the viewpoint of an owner, but not necessarily for individual participants. The use of computer-based technology and automation also provides opportunities for increased productivity in the process. Presenting such modern management options in a unified fashion is a major objective of this book. The unified viewpoint of the entire process of project management in this book differs from nearly all other lit
