In the last decade, following the Latham and Egan Reports, there have been some significant changes in the role of the construction cost manager. Here Keith Potts examines the key issues and best practice in the cost management of construction projects under traditional contracts and new methodologies. All stages within the life cycle of a project are considered from pre-contract to tendering and post contract.



Worked examples, legal and project case studies are used to illustrate the practical application of the theory where appropriate. Seminar questions are included at the end of each chapter including extensive references in order to further develop understanding of the subject. Reference is made to major projects such as the Millennium Dome, Emirates stadium and BAA’s Heathrow Terminal five.



Aimed at students on surveying and construction management programmes, this book will also be useful to practitioners and includes extensive bibliographies identifying key sources of information including the UK government’s Constructing Excellence programme and National Audit Office reports.
