Conclusion
Every construction project of any significance these days involves
an ever-increasing spectrum of individual professional and trade
skills. Consequently, a project can only be achieved satisfactorily
through a comfortable working relationship between very many people,
with many different personal or collective objectives. In this brief
paper I have endeavored to present an overview of project management
as a modern approach designed to withstand the vicissitudes of such
pressures.
Today's owner who adopts the project management approach to establish
a new facility, finds that he avoids becoming directly involved
with the time-consuming design and construction details. Instead,
the approach enables him to continue to concentrate on his primary
on-going profit-making business.
