2.1.

1 Coordination and Supervision


It means maintaining timely, professional, and competent oversight, coordination, and oversight of the Work to
ensure adherence to the authorized construction papers, contract documents, relevant laws, the project timeline, and
all other applicable requirements. The work refers to all such building and service work required to complete the
project, whether carried out by the Builder's or Subcontractor's forces. A person or people may be in charge of
supervision. One person must be in charge of all supervisory duties if they are carried out by more than one person.
Site manager workers who work full-time for the recognized Builder must carry out supervisory duties.

2.1.2 Cost and Time Control


Cost and time are the two main factors in any project. These must be under the contractor's control. The contractor
has agreed to finish the project within the specified time frame and for a set price. In order to make wise decisions on
how to change operations to achieve the deadline and expected cost, project information must be gathered in real-
time. The field staff of the contractor typically completed the project at a low cost because to their abilities and
knowledge. Only after the conclusion of the project, depending on the level of profitability attained and if the work was
completed on schedule, was the efficiency of time and cost control on construction projects apparent.

2.1.3 Quality Control of Work


Construction-related flaws or failures can cost a lot of money. Reconstruction may be necessary and facility
operations could be hampered even by small flaws. The effect is higher costs and delays. Failures could, in the worst
scenario, result in fatalities or serious physical injury. Similar to other accidents, construction-related mishaps can
lead to serious costs and human injuries. Due of these higher direct expenses, indirect costs for insurance,
inspection, and regulation are rising quickly. The project manager makes an effort to guarantee that tasks are
completed accurately the first time and without severe problem.

2.1.4 Keeping of Records


Contractual agreements, architect bulletins, different pre-construction agreements and paperwork, as well as any
adjustments and updates, must all be kept on file for various construction projects. For each building project,
documentation pertaining to costs and payroll is also necessary. The balance of any claim can be tipped by invoices,
daily reports, delivery tickets, and labor agreements, which are all crucial components of recordkeeping.
