Typical Characteristics

Typcial characteristics of Construction Management include:

The Client and Architect have direct access to all the subcontractors, their costs and contracts

The Contract is directly between the Client and the subcontractor giving greater control

The subcontractors for each package specialise in the scope of work for which they are appointed

The specialist subcontractors give far better quality of finishes and less snagging

Because the Contract is directly with the subcontractor, the Client pays the subcontractor directly and so all the money goes to him without an intermediary taking a cut

The Construction Manager is employed as the Client's representative and is 'on his side of the fence', giving the Client better control and protection

Each package is competitively tendered and therefore the Client knows that the cost of the project is the sum of the tendered subcontracts which gives considerable cost benefits to the Client
