General Introduction:

Training on Actions of Construction Project Managers to Mitigate Project Delays for Construction projects are temporary tasks that requires a specific cost, time and efforts for successful completion. Many factors influence the project progress that result in delays and additional cost. Construction delays may occur in many types, and their impact varies depending factor of delay. Special care and attention is required for successful project. Project manager must keep an eye on influencing factors. Project teams must work collaboratively on a specific site under conditions that will never be delayed. Delays in construction affect progress in the projects. So, project manager and his team must have the knowledge how to control and reduce delays during life cycle of the project.

Course goals and objectives: The participants will gain and understand the implications of the best tools and techniques of completing and handing over the project on time. Meantime, the participants will also learn how to overcome the problems which could be caused by any of the project participants such as the Client, Project Manager, Consultant, Contractors and other Sub-Contractors. The delegates will also learn how to mitigate and reduce the general factors of project delays along with discussions about some issues relating to claims in Construction industry
