The Project Life Cycle
1.1
A
real
estate
developer
may
be
regarded
as
the
sponsor
of
building
projects
agency
(
赞助商
)
(
建
设
< br>项
目
)
,
as
much
as
a
government
(
政府机构
)
may be the sponsor
of a
public project
(
公共
项
目
)
and
turns
it
over
to
another
government
unit
upon
its
completion.
As a
unique innovative product or
service
, a project has a
definite
beginnin
g
and
a
definite
end
,
the
process
of
which
is
known
as
the
project
life cycle
.
“
Project
managers
or
the
organization
can
divide
projects
in
phases
to
provide
better
management
control
with
appropriate
links
to
the
ongoing operations of the performing
organization. Collectively, these
phases are known as the project life
cycle.
Many organizations identify
a specific set of life cycles for use
on all of their projects
”
.
From the viewpoint of project
management,
the terms
“
owner
”
and
“
sponsor
”
are
synonymous
ult
imate
(
同
义
的
)
because
both
have
the
(
最终的
)
authority
to make all
important decisions.
Of
course,
the
stages
of
development
in
Figure
1-1
may
not
be
strictly
sequential
.
Some
of the stages
require iteration
carried
out
in parallel
frames
(
反复
)
, and
others may be
(
平行
)
or with overlapping
(
重复
)
time
(
时间框架
)
,
depending
on
the
nature,
size
and
urgency
of
the
project
.
The
project life cycle
may be viewed as a
process through which a
project is
implemented from cradle to grave.
This
process is often very
complex; however,
it can be decomposed into several
stages
.
Owners
must
recognize
that
there
is
no
single
best
approach
in
organizing project management
throughout a project
’
s life
cycle.
1.2
Residential
Housing Construction
(
住宅类房屋建设
):
The
residential
housing
market
is
heavily
affected
by
general
economic
conditions,
tax
laws,
and
the
monetary
and
fiscal
policies
of
the
government
.
Often, a slight increase in total
demand will cause a substantial
investment in construction, since many
housing projects can be started
at
different locations by different individuals and
developers at the
same time.
Institutional and Commercial Building C
onstruction
(
办公和商
业
用房建设
)
encompasses a great
variety of project types and
sizes,
such
as
schools
and universities,
medical
clinics
and
hospitals,
recreational facilities and sports
stadiums, retail chain stores and
large
shopping centers, warehouses and light
manufacturing plants, and
skyscrapers
for offices and hotels
.
Because
of
the
higher
costs
and
greater
sophistication
of
institutional and commercial buildings
in comparison with residential
housing,
this market segment is shared by fewer
competitors
.
Since the
construction of some of these buildings is
a long process
which once started will take some time
to proceed until completion,
the
demand is less sensitive to general
economic conditions
than that for
speculative housing.
Consequently,
the
owners
may
confront
an
oligopoly
of
general
contractors
who compete in
the same market. In an oligopoly situation,
only a limited number of competitors
exist, and a firm
’
s price
for
services
may
be
based
in
part
on
its
competitive
strategies
in
the
local
market.
Specialized
Industrial Construction
(
专业化工
业项目建
设
)
usually
involves very
large scale
projects
with
a high degree
of
technological
complexity
,
such
as
oil
refineries,
steel
mills,
chemical
processing plants and coal-fired or
nuclear power plants
.
Although
the
initiation
of
such
projects
is
also
affected
by
the
state
of
the
economy,
long
range
demand
forecasting
is
the
most
important
factor
since
such
projects
are
capital
intensive
and
require
considerable
amount
of planning and construction
time
.
Infrastructure and
Heavy Construction
(
重大基础项目建设<
/p>
)
includes
projects
such
as
highways,
mass
transit
systems,
tunnels,
bridges, pipelines,
drainage systems and sewage treatment
plants
.
Most of these
projects are publicly owned and therefore
financed
either
through
bonds
or
taxes
.
This
category
of
construction
is
characterized by
a high
degree of mechanization
, which has
gradually
replaced some labor intensive
operations
.

1.
From the viewpoint of project
management, the terms
“
owner
s
”
and
“
sponsor
”
are
synonymous
because
both
have
the
ultimate
authority
to make
all important decisions.
从项目管理的角度看,
“业主”和“发
起方”是同义的,因为两者的基本权力是制定所有重大决策
。
2.
After
the
scope
of
the
project
is
clearly
defined,
detailed
engineering design will provide the
blueprint for construction, and
the
definitive cost estimate will serve as the
baseline for cost
control.
项目
范围界定后,
详细的工程设计将提供建设蓝图,
最终费用估计<
/p>
将作为控制成本的基准。
3.
Furthermore,
an
owner
may
have
in-house
capacities
to
handle
the
work
in every stage of the entire process,
or it may seek professional
advice and
services for the work in all stages.
此外,
业主可用内部
能力处理整个过程中每一个阶段的工作,
或者它可
能会在各个阶段寻求专业
意见及服务。
4.
The
owner
may
choose
to
decompose
the
entire
process
into
more
or
less
stages based on the
size and nature of the project, and thus obtain
the most efficient result in implementa
tion.
业主可以根据项目的规模
和性质选择把整个过程或多
或少的分解到各个阶段上,
从而获得在实践中最
高效的结果。<
/p>
5.
All
organizational approaches have advantages and
disadvantages,
depending on the
knowledge of the owner in construction management
as well as the type, size,
and location of the project.
所有的组织
方法各有利弊,
这取决于在施工管理中的业主的知识以及项目的类型、
规模
和位置。
6.
In
planning
for
various
types
of
construction,
the
methods
of
procuring professional services,
awarding construction contracts,
and
financing the constructed facility can be quiet di
fferent.
各类
建筑的规划、采购的专业服务、建筑合同
的制定、以及建筑设施融资的方法
都可以完全不同。

Specialized
industrial
construction
usually
involves
very
large
scale
projects
with
a
high
degree
of
technological
complexity,
such
as
oil
refineries,
steel
mills,
chemical
processing
plants
and
coal-fired or nuclear
power plants, as is shown in Figure 1-4.
专门
的工业建筑,通常涉及技术复杂程度高,如炼油厂、钢铁厂、化学处理厂和
燃煤或核电厂等的大型项目,如图
1-4
所示
。
8.
Traditionally, the owner engages an
architectural and engineering
(A/E)
firm or consortium as technical consultant in
developing a
preliminary
des
ign.
传统上,业务会聘请建筑和工程设计(
A/E
)公司或财
团做前期设计和技术咨询。
9.
By
integrating
design
and
construction
management
into
a
single
organization,
many
of
the
conflicts
between
designers
and
constructors might be avoided.
通过将设计管理和施工管理统融为一体,
就可以避免设计方和施工方的许多矛盾。<
/p>
10.
In
recent years, a new breed of construction managers
(CM) offers
professional
services
from the inception
to
the completion
of a
construction project.
近年来,出现了
为项目从启动到完工全过程服务的
职业化建设项目经理(
CM<
/p>
)
。
11.
Hence, an
owner must understand its own responsibility and
the risk
it
wishes
to
assign
to
itself
and
to
other
participants
in
the
process.
因此,业主
必须懂得项目当中属于其自身的义务和风险须有其自己来承担。
12.
Unless the
owner performs this function or engages a
professional
construction manager to do
so, a good general contractor who has
worked with a team of superintendents,
speciality contractors or
subcontractors together for a number of
projects in the past can be
most
effective in inspiring loyalty and cooperation.
除非业主自己发
挥这项职能或聘请职业化的
C
M
做这件事,一个经验丰富的总承包商是能够
协同专业承包商和
分包商尽职尽责地完成任务的。
13.
In the State
of New York, for example, speciality contractors,
such
as mechanical and electrical
contractors, are not subjected to the
supervision of the general contractor
of a construction project and
must be
given separate prime contracts on public works.
例如在纽约
州,
诸如机械和电气等专业承包商
并不直接由总承包商监督管理,
并且在公
共工程中必须授予其独
立的合同。

Project
management
is the art of directing and
coordinating human
and material
resources throughout the life of a project by
using modern
management
techniques
to
achieve
predetermined
objectives
of
scope,
cost,
time, quality and participation
satisfaction.
The basic
ingredients
for a project
management framework
may be
represented
schematically in
Figure 2-1.

The project manager
often
gains
the
support of his/her
team through
a
combination
of
the
following:
Formal authority;
Reward
and/or penalty
power; Expert power;
Attractive power
.
In
general,
the
project
manager
’
s
authority
must
be
clearly
documented
as well as
defined
, particularly in a
matrix organization
where the
functional division managers often
retain certain authority
over the
personnel temporarily assigned to a
project
. The following
principles
should
be
observed:
The
interface
between
the
project
manager
and
the
functional
division
managers
should
be
kept
as
simple
as
possible;
The
project
manager
must
gain
control
over
those
elements
of
the
project
which
may
overlap
with
functional
division
managers
;
The
project
manager
should
encourage
problem
solving
rather
than
role
playing
of
team
members
drawn from various
functional divisions.

Generally,
project management is distinguished from the
