Construction Management Activities

Site Supervision and Coordination

Early in the project, the construction manager analyses the manpower requirements for his/her construction team.

The manpower requirement is based on the project size and complexity. The construction manager, under the direction of the project manager, establishes the areas of work that need supervision.

The construction team is responsible to supervise and coordinate all aspects of site activities under Met-Chem's mandate, and to ensure that they are completed according to ISO 9001 procedures.

A typical construction management team, for a medium to large project includes:

• Construction Manager
• Contract Administrator
• Expediter
• Cost Controller
• Scheduler
• Project Engineer
• General Supervisor
• Civil Supervisor(s)
• Mechanical Supervisor(s)
• Piping Supervisor(s)
• Electrical Supervisor(s)
• Instrumentation Supervisor(s)
• Warehouse Clerk
• Clerical assistant(s)
• Document Clerk

For a smaller size project some of the previous responsibilities would be combined to one team member; therefore, manpower requirements are reduced.
