Background: 

 

The construction and infrastructure sectors have seen the evolution of Project Managers becoming an increasingly common and significant role in managing the creation of building assets on behalf of owners. They are also referred to as the consultant Project Manager as they employed through a consultancy agreement.

The Project Management Institute NZ and the NZ Institute of Building established a joint working group to create guidelines defining a standard Scope of Services for a consultant Project Manager’s services for vertical construction. While this Scope of Services document has been developed with vertical construction primarily in mind, it can also be adapted for horizontal construction, or infrastructure.

These guidelines are designed to provide a clear understanding of the roles, responsibilities, processes, and procedures involved. They aim to promote transparency, enhance communication, mitigate risks and ultimately contribute to successful project delivery. They are a reference for all project stakeholders, ensuring consistency, efficiency, and quality in delivering project management services.

This Scope of Services breaks down the Project Manager’s role and provides a general checklist to define usual activities.

These are separated into the five major project phases:

  1. Project Establishment
  2. Design
  3. Construction Procurement
  4. Construction
  5. Post-completion

Plus, a General Services and Supplementary Services sections. Clients and consultants can tailor the checklists to suit the specific project requirements.
