The difference between construction management and general contracting

Construction Management

Commercial and industrial construction management is a professional service that provides coordination, management, and oversight of construction projects. It is typically used for large-scale projects that are complex in nature.

General Contracting

Commercial and industrial general contracting, on the other hand, is a type of contracting that focuses on the physical aspects of construction. General contractors are responsible for the day-to-day management of construction projects, as well as the coordination of workers, materials, and equipment. While both commercial and industrial construction management and general contracting are essential to the successful completion of construction projects, they are distinct services that serve different purposes.

Pre-Construction Process And Advantages

The pre-construction process is a vital step in the overall journey of a project. It serves to outline key objectives, review the scope and feasibility of a project, and create a comprehensive plan for how to move forward. During this phase, vital decisions are made such as budgeting, site analysis, and design reviews — all essential items needed to ensure the rest of the project runs smoothly. Not only that but properly mapping out plans in advance sets the foundation for quality control throughout the entire development process. In other words, pre-construction is an integral part of any successful project and should not be overlooked.
