What is construction management?

Construction management is a professional service that uses specialized project management techniques to oversee the planning, design, and construction of a project from start to finish. Construction managers coordinate and supervise the building process, ensuring that projects are completed on time, within budget, and according to specifications. They work with architects, engineers, contractors, and clients to achieve project goals and handle issues such as scheduling, budgeting, and quality control.
