PROJECT MANAGEMENT
DESIGN, PERFORMANCE, VALUE FOR MONEY, MEETING DEADLINES

The Project Management Role
Project Management has only relatively recently become recognised as a separate profession within the building industry.
The role has come to the fore in recent times as a result of the ever increasing complexity of the process of getting buildings built, the ever more stringent legislative requirements and the necessity to ensure due diligence in cost control.
Clients often assume that when they appoint an architect to design a building they are also appointing them to project manage the process; this is not the case.
Strictly speaking, project management is not the architect’s role, other than to alert the client to the fact that the decisions they have made may affect the budget, or the programme or some other aspect of the project, and to formally ask the client how they wish to proceed.
