This book will give readers a detailed understanding of the critical aspects of running a successful construction company in today’s complex regulatory, economic, and social environment.
Construction Company Management will give readers a detailed understanding of the critical aspects of managing a successful construction company in a dynamic and complex construction business environment characterised by intense competition, supply chain disruptions, and rapid changes in technology, regulations, client preferences, and market conditions.

The book will introduce readers to different dimensions of construction company management. The topics covered reflect current business practices in the construction industry, including company strategy and business models, stakeholder management, contract management, resource management, risk management, knowledge management, company finance, digital innovation, organisational resilience, and the regulatory environment. The book also includes much-needed discussions on ethics, integrity and professional standards, and diversity, equity, and inclusion in construction companies. It explores the opportunities and challenges relevant to construction company management in global contexts with the help of case studies from different regions of the world.

Providing a concise book on this essential subject, Construction Company Management serves both students and those educators who teach it in their construction management courses. Practitioners will find the theory-informed company management practices discussed in the book valuable and useful in their practical contexts.
