Project Management
Project Management is the role that takes all of the moving parts surrounding a construction project and manages them to a successful project completion. It is the ability to take the plan of the architect and the vision of the owner and turn it into reality. The successful project manager wears many hats from making sure that crews and subcontractors perform their work on time and on budget to handling communication of change orders with the owner or general contractor, these processes all have to be documented.
Software can be a help or a hindrance in these cases. If the system isn’t easy to access and use the amount of time spent will make it the system inefficient. However, if the system is intuitive and can be accessed from the field it can speed up the entire process. Imagine if change requests could be documented when the issue is discovered one time and communicated instantly to owners, subcontractors, general contractors and architects while storing a copy of the document(s) automatically on your server. We implement systems like this all the time and our customers reap the benefits.
