Construction Management Jumpstart is the definitive introduction to the field, providing a detailed walkthrough of each stage of a project from the construction managerโs perspective.

Construction managers work alongside project managers, and use many of the same tried-and-true techniquesโbut construction managers must also adhere to a vast array of industry-specific standards and regulations.

Evolving regulations, advancing technology, and economies in flux all impact the construction industry in a number of ways; managementโs job is to clear obstacles to delivery and streamline the projectโs completion. To be effective, construction managers must stay up to date on the latest tools and best practices, and have a strong grasp of the fundamentals of the role. Construction Management Jumpstart provides a practical, highly-relevant introduction to the field.
