A construction project manager always needs to be in two places at once.
- In the office, planning the project and seeking out potential subs.
- And on-site, making sure the project is going well and that subs are doing the job right.
Has this ever happened to you?
“I need to work in the office today— no wait, there’s a problem, I gotta go to the job site.”
This dual responsibility may never go away completely. But by hiring the right employees and working with the best vendors, you can minimize problems on the job site and spend more time in the air conditioning.
Experienced Vendors Know What They’re Doing
(so you don’t have to babysit)
Finding a great subcontractor who can work autonomously, do their job quickly and efficiently is a construction project manager’s dream. Ensuring the result of all that meticulous planning often means being on the job site to field questions, check supplies and solve problems as they arise. Just imagine if all subs could be trusted to handle this kind of stuff on their own.
Being the Busiest Guy on the Job Site
As a construction project manager, it goes without saying that you have a lot on your plate. Maybe you build skyscrapers in busy cities, or help municipalities expand their airports or construct bulkheads at commercial marinas. Maybe you build luxury homes or shore up crumbling infrastructure on old college campuses. Whatever types of projects you work on, the workload and responsibility of a PM is more than just about anyone else involved.
On the construction site, you answer to your boss… and the client. You’re not the one hammering nails or guiding beams into place, but the buck will stop with you when it comes to staying under budget, on schedule and getting the job done right… all of which requires hiring the right subcontractors.
The responsibility of planning how and when the parts and pieces of a project come together takes some serious desk time. Endless phone calls, countless emails, erratic schedules, and constant research are a huge part of the job.
Wouldn’t it be nice if you had more time to do that stuff instead of spending so much time on the job site?
