Construction Project Management: Resource Management

Construction Project Management: Resource Management

1 hr. Online Course

Level: Intermediate

Item#: RV-11401

SME: S. Sears

Much of the job of a project manager, as well as the job of a field supervisor, focuses on the efficient investment of resources to achieve the project objectives. A resource can be considered anything that adds value to the project. When we talk of resources in the context of construction, we typically think of manpower, equipment, and materials. 
 
In addition to what we normally understand manpower to mean—that is, craft workers who actually do the work on the project—there are many other people who add value to the project. It is the job of the project manager to manage all of these resources in support of efficient execution of the project. This interactive, online course will focus on methods and procedures involved with the management of the three primary resources of manpower, equipment, and materials.
Course Objectives

  • Understand the importance of resource management 
  • Identify practical means to improve the allocation of labor resources
