 BIM stands for
“Building information
modeling” (or model,
if you refer to the file)
BIM’s ideals are to
provide ONE model to
handle all the visual
and non-visual (such
as costs, specific heat,
sound absorption
coefficient of material
and a million other
non-visual properties),
and also to
intelligently query all
those properties/3D
with least human
interaction

Project managers have much to think about—from project scope to team member dynamics, from schedule to cost constraints,
from dealing with executive stakeholders to identifying future state requirements.

Project manager duties:

• Develop a project plan
• Establish a project schedule and determine each phase
• Negotiate and prepare agreements for successful execution of work, including bid packages and contract document.
• Manage deliverables according to the plan
• Recruit project staff
• Lead and manage the project team
• Determine the methodology used on the project
• Assign tasks to project team members.
• Inspection of construction work.
• Assist management in risk identification.
• Provide regular updates to upper management

• A project schedule is a document collecting all the work needed to deliver the project on time. ... For example, most tools have
task lists, which enable the manager to schedule multiple tasks, their due dates, sometimes the planned effort against that
task, and then assign that task to a person

Gantt chart
• Graph or bar chart with a bar for each project activity that shows passage of time.
• Provides visual display of project schedule.
• A gantt chart in which a series of horizontal lines shows the amount of work done or production completed
in certain periods of time in relation to the amount planned for those periods.

Project planning
• Defines objectives, tasks and preceding relationships, estimates time and resources.
• Project planning is part of project management, which relates to the use of schedules such as Gantt charts to
plan and subsequently report progress within the project environment. Initially, the project scope is defined
and the appropriate methods for completing the project are determined.

Project scheduling
• Identifies critical tasks which, if delayed, will delay the project completion time.
• Project scheduling is a mechanism to communicate what tasks need to get done and which organizational resources
will be allocated to complete those tasks in what timeframe. A project schedule is a document collecting all the work
needed to deliver the project on time.

Project controlling

• Monitoring and revising progress of a project.

• Define activities
• Identifying precedence relationship
• Determining activity times and costs
• Develop schedule
• Determining critical activities.
• Estimating material and worker requirements.
• Monitor and control project.

• Scoping the project is the process by which need to produce the work framework that have been identified and described in
sufficient details to implement the project.
• It gives the project team to understand what needs to be done at the same time, help the team in establishment of
management control system that can be applied during the execution of the project.
• Scope is the area refers to all the work involved in creating products of projects and processes used in its creation. It includes
necessary procedure to ensure that the project includes all required business processes and all equipment required to
successfully complete the project work.
• “Managing project scope is primarily concerned with defining and controlling what is and is not included in the project.”

• Scope Management in Project Management: Can effective project scope management planning
and controlling reduce project delays and failures in Construction Industry?
• Why scope management is a important role in project management?
• What are the key factors of scope management in order to reduce project delays and failures.
• How can effective scope management enhance project result in construction industry?

• What is Project Scope?
• Scope refers to the detailed set of deliverables or features of a project. These deliverables are derived from a
project’s requirements.

BGSSAP _ Project and Construction Management 19

Project Scope Management refers to the set of processes that ensure a project’s scope is accurately defined and
mapped. Scope Management techniques enable project managers and supervisors to allocate just the right
amount of work necessary to successfully complete a project—concerned primarily with controlling what is and
what is not part of the project’s scope.

• What is Project Scope in Project Management?
• Scope is documented in a scope statement, which is an integral part of any project plan.
And what is a scope statement exactly? It’s a written document that is used as the basis for project decisions
down the line. The scope statement clearly delineates what is in scope (the work required). Everything else
is out of scope.

• Scope verification is the process of formalizing acceptance of the project scope by the stakeholders. It
requires reviewing work products and results to ensure that all were completed correctly and satisfactorily.

BGSSAP _ Project and Construction Management 22

• Control Scope is the process of monitoring the status of the project and product scope and
managing changes to the scope baseline. The key benefit of this process is that it allows the scope baseline
to be maintained throughout the project.

Decision Tree Analysis
• A decision tree analysis is a specific technique in which a diagram is used for the purposes of assisting
the project leader and the project team in making a difficult decision.
• The decision tree is a diagram that presents the decision under consideration and, along different
branches, the implications that may arise from choosing one path or another.
• The decision tree analysis is often conducted when a number of future outcomes of scenarios remains
uncertain, and is a form of brainstorming which, when decision making, can help to assure all factors
are given proper consideration.
• The decision tree analysis takes into account a number of factors including probabilities, costs, and
rewards of each event and decision to be made in the future.
• The analysis also uses expected monetary value analysis to assist in determining the relative value of
each alternate action.
