PROJECT AND COST MANAGEMENT IN CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

Abstract

In this study, the management of project organizations, the concepts of project management, the importance and application of planning and cost management in construction projects are discussed. Different planning techniques are mentioned in different situations and visual examples related to them are shared. It has been emphasized that project management is not adequately implemented in many construction companies and that awareness on this issue is increased. Literature reviews on the subject were made and definitions obtained from different sources were presented. The history of project management, the successful results in the areas where it is used professionally and the cases where it is not applied in construction projects are mentioned as a result of theoretical explanations. As a result of the study, there are suggestions for the correct and accurate use of cost management and programming, where project management should be considered as a whole in construction projects.
