Project management is one of the most important roles on a building site. In fact, without someone fulfilling this role on a full-time basis, you run the risk of the project collapsing and wasting thousands in your all-important budget. So, you may well be thinking about hiring a trained project manager to oversee your project, or perhaps you've decided to try it yourself. Either way, you should definitely check out a few tips and tricks so you can spot an issue with your project.
Make a detailed budget
Of course, one of the things you will do as a project manager is set a budget. After all, it is almost impossible to carry on with your project without one. However, the mistake many people make when they do this is they don’t create a plan that is detailed enough. Without specific items and issues listed in your budget, then you are far more likely to miss something. This may have serious implications and cost you several thousands in the long run. So, make sure you build a detailed budget before you start the work.
Create a schedule
Building projects can be incredibly busy and there are many things which you will need to look out for. What's more, everything needs to happen in a very specific order and if this is disrupted, it can put your project back for weeks. So, it is vital that you make a detailed plan. This plan will ensure that you meet the deadline and build the house in the safest way possible. We would advise using a spreadsheet so you can easily see your schedule and edit it if you wanted to. However, a good old pen and paper works just fine too!
Write a checklist
Building projects are incredibly dynamic, and things will change quickly. With everything going on around you and tight deadlines to meet, you’ll need to make sure everything is written down so you don’t forget anything. It might be easier to write your list down on your computer or a tablet so you can easily edit it and check things off when you have completed the tasks.
Plant rental
Every building project needs diggers, tools, and excavators. However, they are often extremely expensive and will set your project budget back by a huge amount. So, if you hire your plant items, you can bring the cost of your project down and ensure the equipment is reliable.
