Project management

QUESTIONS

What owners ask

What is the project management step?

Billing dates, change orders, and notices, run as standards that hold without anyone chasing them. It's step 06 of 8 in CONTROL, drawn from chapter 6.

Does the order make a difference?

Yes. This step depends on estimating system, so installing it first produces numbers nobody trusts.

What does it change downstream?

It feeds monthly cadence, standards and accountability. A change here moves every one of those.

What breaks if I skip step 06?

2 later steps read from it: 07, monthly cadence, 08, standards and accountability. Skip it and those run on numbers that were never established, so the output looks finished and isn't.

Where does step 06 sit in the sequence?

Position 6 of 8 once the dependencies are resolved. It waits on 04. 2 steps wait on it. Most owners install all 8 inside 60 days.
