As a construction project manager, achieving this while maintaining quality is the most valuable package you can offer your clients. Of course, its value derives largely from it's difficulty - if it were easy to complete jobs entirely to plan then it would happen rather more often. Using a combination of worked examples and case studies, this book examines how projects go over-cost, what lessons can be learned from past examples and what approaches have successfully been employed.
