Construction companies and construction projects
needed internal procedures and processes to perform professionally. The
procedures and process description documents is considered a company’s asset. A quality management system is essential for complex and larger
infrastructure projects like hotels, commercial buildings, rail or
Airports, Highways, and aquatic Projects etc. The quality construction
procedures are adjusted according to the contractual requirements and the
construction needs.
It is necessary to make
construction plan, write down the construction process and then
restart the business to make it more efficient and productive. The health,
environment, safety, human resource, and accounting procedures are also
considered necessary for construction
projects along with Quality procedures. The designing and construction
guidelines and instructions are crucial for development of construction plans
and procedures. The process owners and senior staff supervise the construction
process to make construction projects productive and compatible. The following
elements are vital for successful construction project.
- Objective of project
- Type and scope of data
- Internal audits
- Control of documents and record
- Activities performed during project
- Resources including labor team and cost
- Description of approach and methodology
- The outcome and result
The top construction companies
get lots of benefits through communications, cost estimate, and contracting
etc. The effective process planning, top management, operation and control are
crucial to make construction
project successful and profitable. The money earned from the
construction business matters more than the size of the construction company.
The home builders, contractors, commercial and residential company owners pay
attention to the Quick-books setup for strategic and tactical planning,
increasing sales and profits and getting
information about Job Costing, financial Reports, and Job Profitability Reports
to flourish and survive. The important procedures and
processes that a construction project needs include;
Procurement
and Logistics Procedure
The company’s construction team
and resources work together through procurement of construction services. The
construction procurement services are combined with architectural services such
as construction documents, design, or construction contract administration in
most projects. Today the demand for construction procurement and logistics services is
increasing with the advancement in construction techniques.
Design
Procedure
The design procedure defines how
to design the different types of buildings according to the construction requirements of their
valued clients. It is not easy job to start the construction project with one
designer; it requires a team of professional designers, structural engineers, advisers,
architects, interior designers, landscape designers, contractors and suppliers
etc.
Temporary
Works Procedure
Temporary works
procedure is crucial to find the engineered solution of a complex construction
project, to support an existing structure and permanent works during
construction, to improve management arrangements of contractors and to promote
knowledge awareness of the importance of managing temporary and The accurate design and implementation of
temporary works is an essential element for the prevention of risk and
reduction of accidents arising from temporary works failures in construction.
Management
of Equipment and Plant
The economic use
of proper and appropriate construction equipment for specific construction
operations contributes to the economy, construction management, safety,
quality, speed and timely completion of a project. Plant management and proper
maintenance of equipment is important in civil engineering construction works.
Different types of construction projects
required different variety of construction equipment like pilling
equipment, earthwork equipment, concrete mixing and placement equipment, and
hoisting equipment etc.
Inspection
and Quality Control Procedure
Inspection of
the construction procedures, processes and to check the quality of materials
and inputs required for the construction projects are key elements behind the
successful construction. The team appointed to check the quality control should
have qualified inspectors trained in internationally recognized standards and
practices. If the company does not have professional and trained inspectors who
do not follow appropriate procedure and do not make right decisions then the
construction company has to suffer loss. There are different types of quality
inspection services e.g. pre-production
inspection, during production
inspection, final random
inspection, and container loading inspection adopted according to the required
construction situation.
Cost
Control Procedure
Construction
Cost control procedures defines the project cost does not exceeds the budget.
Cost control procedures help to estimates and forecasts of material, factors of
production land, labor, capital, organization and fixed cost expenditures. It
is necessary to hire an experienced construction manager or management firm to
review the cost analysis before and during the construction project. Cost
control procedures should forecast future costs to cope with any kind of
construction problem and discrepancies.
Training
Procedure
The training
procedure helps to provide entry level construction workers information about
employer responsibilities and their rights and provide information about
conducting construction outreach training classes. Trainers are responsible to provide
information and knowledge of the practices, procedures and principles of
construction planning, safety and health etc.
