project manager responsible for all project, included construction managerconstruction manager responsible for any construction mistakes and all construction specifications.
Yes, Project Manager = wholly responsible for the project whereas construction manager = partially responsible for his part of the work.
a very bold difference between what a construction manager have todo in a project and what system expects a project manager to do is managing the Quality control/assurance,HSE and some how leading the planning and project management system in a way that project progress as per time schedule will be also fallowed correctly,actually it means acceptable level of safety and quality beside good execution progress which fallowing it is basically the construction manager's responsibility.another serious difference is to manage the contractors and sub contractors presence based on project budget which basically is not the construction manager's issue to take care of since the progress is the key for a construction mager's success
a) Management of the actual execution of works on site
b) In most projects, he reports to the Project Manager
c) Manages the technical matters and formulates resolutions for issues related to construction methods, sequence of works, proper utilization of materials, manpower & equipment and other technical concerns.
a) Manages the entire project or the overall responsible person of the project.
b) Usually, the department that are under him are : Construction, QA/QC, Safety, Engineering/Technical Documents/Drawings, Project Control/ Planning, Contracts/Costs and Facilities.
Finance & Administration, Human Resources and Internal Auditing departments are not under the Project Manager for obvious reasons.
c) Project Manager represents the Company in high-level meetings and discussions with other concerned parties as he is the authorized person to endorse needed urgent decisions on most issues affecting the project (within his level & scope) and the first contact person to receive advice or communicate and seek approval from Higher Management for big decisions on critical and urgent issues.
Major distinction between the two positions. construction manager needs to have a perfect understanding of industry codes and best practices geared towards resolving a technical problem. He is the embodiment of what engineering means - practical application of scientific theories and methods. project manager, on the other hand, needs to go beyond the engineering aspects of the job. The practice of the art and science of project management needs you to be a meld of an engineer, an accountant and a lawyer!
