All Construction projects begin with the recognition of an opportunity or of a problem. To turn this recognition into a finished building or some other construction, requires a multitude of decisions. These decisions involve among others, the location, size, quality, time-scale, cost of the project etc. It is a matter, requiring much skill and knowledge to guide a construction project through this complex decision-making process.
