-Clear roles assigned to each party
-Generally transparent process
-Thorough resolution of program requirements and design prior to
construction

,-Direct professional relationship between the client/building users and
the architect

-Clients sometimes perceive extras as being more prevalent and costly
under this form of of contract
-Contractor is unknown when CDs are prepared

lowest bidder who may not be well qualified to do work.
Prequalification of contractors on public sector bids is not common.


What is Construction Management (as a form of project delivery)?
Correct Answer-Construction Management:
Broad term covering a variety of project delivery scenarios where a CM
is added to the design team early on to oversee: schedule, cost,
construction method, or building technology (could be an architect,
contractor, engineer, developer)


More common on large/complex projects because of added fee of
additional consultant. CM is not a licensed activity in most provinces


List 2 roles the Construction Manager can play (in CM project delivery).
Correct Answer-CM's can serve in different capacities with varying
degrees of authority:

, Advisor - during a particular phase


Manager of the construction of the project, with the owner contracting
directly with each trade contractor. CM may or may not be permitted to
assume responsibility for construction activities outlined in GC's of
specifications (ex temp facilities, site layout, clean-up).


List the advantages and disadvantages of Construction Management
Projects Correct Answer-Advantages:
-Direct contractual relationship with the Owner
-Construction advising during the design process
-Sequential bidding (saves time by permitting a start on construction
before all documentation is completed - fast track)
-Careful monitoring of costs and schedule:
Different checks and balances apply during design and construction
because the architect, trade contractors and CM are independent entities


Disadvantages:
-Construction usually commences before total costs are known
-Added cost/time for addition of additional consultant (CM)
-More complex relationships (traditional roles can be confused)
-Professional relationship between architect and owner and architect and
contractor now includes a third party (can sometimes complicate direct
communication)
