Then in five chapters you'll learn how to identify changes and put together cost proposals.To manage quality, you'll gain an understanding of submittals, field questions, and consultant reports, and learn how mockups and pre-installation meetings will avoid problems.The risk management section introduces five types of labor shortages and explains what happens when a subcontractor goes out of business. And finally, we'll explain twelve types of insurance that limit risk.Closeout is a long process with everything from punch lists, final billings, and warranties, to owner manuals, demobilizing, and audits. It's all covered!Construction Project Management explains the shortcuts, what to avoid, how money is made or lost and how risk is managed. This is a strong resource you'll find yourself reaching for again.
