What is ……
“Project Management”
Project Management is the application of knowledge or “Know How” gathered over many years of experience, together with skills and techniques to be applied or introduced at all levels to Project activities to meet Project requirements.
Since 1983 ……..
Our focus is “hands-on” Project Management together with the Construction of luxury upmarket Homes or House Makeovers and Renovations, having a permanent on-site Manager dedicated to each site, to secure hands-on supervision and quality of workmanship. This total package takes much of the decision making process off the client’s shoulders.
With the increasing emphasis on homes as private enjoyment areas and places of sanctuary we combine our expertise, the design elements and practicalities of our client’s lifestyle, Budget and individual preferences to erect an environment specific and unique to each client.

What is …… “Project Management” Triangle
Like any client undertaking a project, The Project needs to be performed and delivered under certain constraints. Traditionally, these constraints have been listed as scope, time and cost. These three points as a heading at each corner of a drawn triangle are also referred to as “The Project Management Triangle“.
A further refinement of the constraints separates product “Quality” or “Performance” from scope and turns quality into a fourth constraint.
A Triangle where each side or leg represents a constraint. One side of the Triangle cannot be changed without impacting the others.
The “Time” constraint refers to, is the total period of time available to complete a Project.
The “Cost” constraint refers to the budgeted amount available for The Project.
The “Scope” constraint refers to what must be done according to the Architects drawings or the “scope” of The Contract, to produce the Projects end result.
These three constraints are often competing constrains: Should you increase the “scope” or expect The Project Manager to do extra work because of “change in drawings” or additions, typically means increased time and increased cost. A tight time constraint could mean increased costs and reduced scope, and a tight budget could mean increased time and reduced scope.

If you need to finish a job in a shorter time, you can throw more people at the “problem” which in turn will raise the cost of The Project, unless by doing this task quicker we will have to reduce costs elsewhere in The Project by an equal amount.
