Construction project management combines the responsibilities of a traditional project manager with the skills and expertise of the construction industry. Because construction projects are always changing, a successful construction project manager needs a wide range of skills and abilities to manage diverse teams and projects.

The management of construction projects requires knowledge of modern management as well as an understanding of the design and construction process.
