Building Regulations - the Project Manager would make contact with the Building Inspector on your behalf and ensure that they are notified at the correct stages during the build process
Tender package - preparing and issuing tender documentation, to get you the best trades and negotiate a reasonable price
The Project Manager will liaise with the Structural Engineer and Quantity Surveyor, and has a good understanding of building fabric and the sourcing of sepcialist materials
Accurate budgeting - the Project Manager will keep an eye on budget and ensure you agree any changes to the contract sum
Programme of works
Sequencing and co-ordination of all building works - the Project Manager will keep a close eye on all trades to ensure that they are working within their timeframes and keep you updated if there are any delays.
Site visits - it is important for the design team to be aware of the progress of the build to be able to assist you with any changes, as well as ensuring the construction is in accordance with the approved details
