title: Construction manager can reduce costs, frustrations.
abstract: Working as a team, the architect, the owner, and the construction manager can provide substantial savings in the design and construction process. Key to the success of such an effort is a well-conceived selection process for the architect and the construction manager and a firm contract with each. Close coordination at each step of the design/construction process also is important.
