Introduction
The construction of a residential building follows the same basic project management approach as construction for industrial buildings, beginning with a Project Charter, which defines the scope of the project.

Overview
The following phase must be realized to assess the successful construction of a residence:

Pre-project - scopes the owners idea and which details the costs and how, where and when the project will be residence will be constructed Planning and Design -confirms that the owners idea is a project , research contractors and determine roles and responsibilities Project Mobilization-decides on a contractor and build construction mobilization timeline Project Operations-the construction manager ensures the implementation of all previous phases are delivered on the construction site as planned, including documentation of onsite activities Project Closeout-is known as commissions and is the completed work, including documentation, payments and the owners feedback

02:00:40 AM

Project Charter
Defines the owners expectations for the residence Establishes the project baseline Outlines roles and responsibilities Assess risks and contingency Assess costs and payment arrangements Determines and creates team structure Creates tasks and deliverables timeline Identifies the location for the residence

02:00:40 AM

Pre-project Phase
The owner: Defines and establish scope Assigns a budget for the resident Research and determine a location for the residence Research contractor and/or subcontractors to construct the residence Determines feedback mechanisms

Planning and Design

The project is fully defined and made ready for contractor selection and deployment during the planning and design phase. Divided into 3 stages First stage Define projects objectives, find alternative ways to attain those objectives and ascertain whether project is feasible.

02:00:41 AM

Planning and Design

During first stage, a project brief will be developed, various sites may be investigated, public input may be sought, cost estimate will be prepared, funding sources will be identified. Second stage-Design professional will develop schematic diagrams showing the relationships among the various project components followed by detailed design.

Planning and Design

Third stage-The output from the design development effort is used in the final stage, wherein contract documents are prepared for use in contractor selection and installation work at the site. The design professional prepares not only the detailed drawings but also written contract conditions containing legal requirements and technical specifications.

Selecting a Contractor

Inputs = charter information ~ buyers contract Tools & techniques = expert judgment ~ Selecting a Project Manager

Based on proposed project plan of work listed in charter Contractor tenders/plan represents a preliminary schedule, cost estimate, resource estimate, risk planning and determination of quality Selected PM/contractor would manage the resources, the schedule, budget, quality, risk, procurement and the overall plan PM/contractor would implement communications and change management processes

Contractor Selection Flow

02:00:43 AM

Mobilization
the phase between the award of the contract and the start of the construction at the site
Develop WBS of all work to be performed Refine schedule based on resource assignments, etc Adjust cost based on resources, materials, supplies, schedule changes, contingency reserves and plan changes Develop communication plan, timeline & methods Determine sub-contractors/human resources needs Develop procurement plan of needs and when needed Determine & mitigate risk of weather, personnel, materials, etc Determine change management procedures to be used

Project Operations/Managing the Project

Monitoring and controlling is managing the resources effectively and coordinating vital documentation and communication activities. Monitoring refers to methods comparing actual with planned performance. Control denotes the actions taken to attempt to bring deficient aspects of the project into conformance. Monitoring and control pertains to the projects schedule, budget, and quality. The contractor should compare progress with what is shown on the project program.

Project Operations/Managing the Project

There are 3 types of changes that could impact the schedule:
Planned changes Changes prior to installation Changes after installation

The budget provides a means for comparing actual with budgeted expenses and draw attention in a timely manner, to operations that are deviating from the project budget, to develop a database of productivity and cost performance data for use in estimating the costs of subsequent projects and to generate data for valuing variations and changes to the contract and potential claims for additional payments.

02:00:45 AM

Project Operations - Quality

Quality assurance may be defined as planned and systematic actions focused on providing the members of the team with confidence that components are designed and constructed in accordance with applicable standards and as specified by contract. Quality control is the review of services provided and completed work, together with management and documentation practices, that are geared to ensure that project services and work meet contractual requirements.

The project is almost complete! The day has finally come . . . Time to close on your home construction and move into your new home.

How exciting!

Project closeout
Projects proceed smoothly until 95% complete, and then they remain at 95% forever! 90% of the effort is expended on the first 90% of the project, and the other 90% is expended on the other 10% of the project. Often termed commissioning

02:00:47 AM

Project closeout
Make sure everything has been built to specifications before making final payment to the contractor. Before closing on your home, it is advisable to complete a final walk through the home.

02:00:47 AM

Project closeout
What do you get at closing? Settlement Statement, HUD-1 Form (itemized list of all related closing costs, this form must be completed and given to you at or before closing) Truth-in-Lending Statement Mortgage Note Mortgage or Deed of Trust Binding Sales Contract (prepared by the seller; your lawyer should review it) Keys to your new home
