Most Supervisors are rarely aware of the process that proceeds the construction phase of any project. But, because they are usually responsible for managing and controlling costs it is important to understand how the budget was established and the impact of cost changes on all parties.
This module is a whole day that covers the pre-construction process and how project estimates are compiled, how to compare actual project costs with those estimated, and how to control costs to meet the estimate. Participants will also learn the value of effective supervision of workers to improve the Supervisor’s ability to manage costs in the construction process. The learning group will also review construction estimates, who controls project costs, reporting and analyzing actual costs, labor cost variances, working with project partners and the importance of risk management.

- Who controls project costs?
