Hi,
Construction management is the planning, coordination, and oversight of the entire construction process, from initial designs to final completion. It ensures projects are built on time, within budget, and according to safety standards. Think of it as the conductor of a complex orchestra, bringing together architects, engineers, contractors, and workers to achieve a successful build.
Hope it clears your question !
