The success of a construction project depends on the contributions and strength of the entire team — including the financial professional, as well as open communication, understanding, and collaboration. Managing, tracking, and forecasting the financial results of a construction project requires the understanding of each project phase.

This program teaches construction financial professionals the language of construction project management, how the information available relates to each project phase, and provides expert insight on what can go wrong and how to make it right. Take a journey through a sample job and map it through every project phase, including the adjustment and alignment of financials and data, and explore how to collaborate with the project manager to deliver the most profitable results.

After completing this session, you will be able to:

• Explain the structure and activities required for successful project management
• List the project management steps and discuss the importance of collaboration with other construction project stakeholders
• Identify potential project risks at all stages of the process
• Describe all aspects — from both an operational and financial perspective — of the contract life cycle, including all facets of project bid, acquisition, contract initiation, construction, and completion
• Discuss opportunities to improve communication to enhance project performance and safety
• Implement lessons learned and incorporate proven principles and best practices for successful project management
