Before you start

What to understand about construction

Construction requires coordinating design, budget, materials, labor, equipment, logistics and controls within a work sequence. Many decisions made before work begins influence both cost and ease of execution.

It is therefore useful to divide the project into stages and identify the information required at each one. Preliminary studies, drawings, budgeting, contracting and site planning all contribute to reducing later improvisation.

Points to evaluate

  • Define scope, priorities and constraints before contracting work.
  • Coordinate design, budget and the construction sequence.
  • Plan materials, access, equipment and site logistics.
  • Maintain controls and documentation throughout project execution.
