The role of the project manager continues to evolve, presenting new challenges to established practitioners and those entering the field for the first time. This second edition of Peter Fewings' groundbreaking textbook has been thoroughly revised to recognise the increasing importance of sustainability and lean construction in the construction industry. It also tackles the significance of design management, changing health and safety regulation, leadership and quality for continuous improvement of the service and the product.


Using an integrated project management approach, emphasis is placed on the importance of effectively handling external factors in order to best achieve an on-schedule, on-budget result, as well as good negotiation with clients and skilled team leadership. Its holistic approach provides readers with a thorough guide in how to increase efficiency and communication at all stages while reducing costs, time and risk. Short case studies are used throughout the book to illustrate different tools and techniques.


Combining the theories underpinning best practice in construction project management, with a wealth of practical examples, this book is uniquely valuable for practitioners and clients as well as undergraduate and graduate students for construction project management.

Peter Fewings has wide experience of project management and is a learning and teaching fellow at the University of the West of England leading courses on construction and project management, researching and writing in the area of private public partnerships, health and safety, ethics and a practitioner in Myers Briggs. Martyn Jones is a leading authority on supply chain management and innovation in the construction industry. Under the auspices of Constructing Excellence he works with clients and supply-side organisations to unlock the value in their supply chains.
