The design and construction management process.
The design and construction process is important for any hospital group. The process consists of many steps and contributing factors such as accurate estimating, realistic completion schedules, and comprehensive construction data. It is the responsibility of the Design and Construction Team to insure that these items are met. In the design and construction of a project, time is of the essence. The timely completion can add to the earnings of a hospital group. Conversely, the delayed completion of a project will cause the hospital group to lose tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. Therefore, it is imperative that the hospital group establishes a Design and Construction Team that will promote the interest of the owner through contract cost containment and efficient project scheduling.
