It’s easy to overlook everything that goes into a construction project. After all, when the project is done, the structure moves onto practical use, whether as a residence, an office building, a roadway, or even an airport, with the construction process long behind it.

Construction project management tackles all of the various parts of a project. For this reason, it’s often used as a catch-all term, oversimplifying what the process truly involves.
