What Makes An Effective Project Manager?
Organisation, knowledge, communication, and proactiveness are essential to being an effective Building Project Manager. Here at Fourth Wall, we stay up-to-date with current trends and ways to work on-site effectively, communicate between teams and meet deadlines.
A great Project Manager understands that projects often don’t go exactly to plan. They should use their knowledge of the industry they’re in and be proactive in enabling the team to get the project back on track in an efficient manner.
How Do Project Managers Add Value To a Project?
Answered simply, a project manager makes sure that effort expended by members of the build team is best put into practice. When you are assessing the likely costs of a project, you may ask yourself how a project manager can add real, tangible value to the project. We assess: –
- Start and end times of all staff under our supervision to keep costs at a minimum.
- All resources arriving or leaving a site, keeping relative costs and any wastage to a minimum where possible.
- Focus on the needs of your customers and clients, bringing in input and ideas from their end to best complete our goals.
- Actively assess and review feedback from all channels and fit this into any plans or proposals going forward. Communication is key between channels, teams and services.
- Maintain monitoring and communication of known and new risks, whether that is cost, discovery of new issues on site, programme review, and feedback on other professional teams involvement or findings.
- We deliver on our promises. Often, when unexpected challenges arrive on a project, we manage expectations and assess liability where suitable, bringing together outcomes to these challenges and creating new updated goals going forward.
