Construction projects our company performs are highly structured endeavors. Just like any other project but with the main distinction that construction is mission-based, construction project management has phases from designing to planning and scheduling to the build itself, each phase is complicated and part of a more complex overarching process.

There are a variety of different types of construction projects that depend on the construction sector. The two sectors in construction are residential and commercial and there are four different types of projects:

• Residential home building and renovation
• Heavy industrial construction
• Commercial and institutional construction
• Engineering construction

That means there are a wide variety of types of construction projects that require construction management in order to be successful. Construction management might be required for a simple home to a large bridge, from engineering a dam build to an airport seismic retrofit project. Construction project managers, then, manage the beginning and end of a project build, often managing on-site to ensure safe, successful construction. There are several types of construction projects and each of them has different challenges. However, all of them require a project owner, construction project manager and general contractor.
