title: Best practices in project management: lessons learned in hospital construction.
abstract: On time and under budget serve no purpose if the end product is not up to user specifications. Case in point is a recent construction project at Mississauga Ontario's Credit Valley Hospital, which was completed within the parameters of time and quality, was 10 million dollars under the budgeted cost and exceeded user expectations. Moreover, the result is a physical representation of the hospital's vision, mission and values.
