Management in the Construction Industry

CIV ENG X464

40512
Delivery Options Online

Managing a small-, medium- or large-scale construction project is a complex process from beginning to end. An error can lead to budget overruns and costly delays, but good management can bring projects in on time and in line with the cost estimates. This course provides a practical, in-depth introduction to construction management and preconstruction services. Multimedia presentations by industry experts introduce you to common management techniques. Both individually and with a group, you cover preparing a request for proposal (RFP), including an estimate with the accompanying qualifications and assumptions; conducting constructability reviews and value engineering analyses; creating construction schedules; and developing staffing and general conditions costs for projects from the preconstruction stage through construction completion. Enrollment is limited.
