A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Managing Construction Projects
This chapter presents an introduction to six construction management schools of thought: the Project Management Book of Knowledge, Simultaneous Management, Lean Construction, a Theory of Construction as Production by Projects, Collaborative Working and the perspective of Peter Morris one of the leading researchers and practitioners of Project Management. We examine the position of planning in each of these perspectives and at the ‘root theory’ of each school, their current thinking, how they compare when considering the demands of complex construction projects and their perspective on the role of planning.
