Fundamentals of a Construction Project
Construction projects vary in size, scope, and duration. Some projects are 40-story office towers with budgets of hundreds of millions of dollars and schedules spanning several years; other projects are $50K interior renovations completed in 4 weeks.
Construction firms, like other businesses, vary in size and volume. The largest of companies can have over 150 separate ongoing projects; smaller firms may only have 10.
While no one project is ever exactly the same, there is an
operational structure that is generally followed.
