Cost Planning

In the construction industry, a cost plan is used as a way of controlling the estimated costs during the design and construction phases of a project. That means that cost plans are living artefacts, just like project management plans. They must be managed throughout the lifecycle of any initiative in any industry.

​

Scoping

Project scope is the part of project planning that involves determining and documenting a list of specific project goals, deliverables, features, functions, tasks, deadlines, and ultimately costs. In other words, it is what needs to be achieved and the work that must be done to deliver a project.

​

Contract Management

Contract management is the process of managing contract creation, execution and analysis to maximize operational and financial performance at an organisation, all while reducing financial risk. Organisations encounter an ever-increasing amount of pressure to reduce costs and improve company performance.

​

Health & Safety Management

ACS follows a strict Safety Policy that incorporates Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS), Job Hazard Analysis procedures, supervised work practices, daily prestarts for staff, contractors and plant, and accompanied by weekly toolbox meetings, are just some of the tools we use to provide safety on the job. Priding ourselves on enforcing safe work procedures on the projects we build, gives clients assurance that our team is focused on safety and protecting the environment in which we work. Eliminating potential hazards is key to all the tasks Alliance Construction undergoes.

​

Project Management

Project management is the practice of initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and closing the work of a team to achieve specific goals and meet specific success criteria at the specified time.

 

The primary challenge of project management is to achieve all of the project goals within the given constraints. This information is usually described in project documentation, created at the beginning of the development process.

 

The primary constraints are scope, time, quality and cost. The secondary and more ambitious challenge is to optimise the allocation of necessary resources and apply them to meet pre-defined objectives.

 

The object of project management is to produce a complete project which complies with the client's objectives. In many cases the object of project management is also to shape or reform the client's brief in order to feasibly be able to address the client's objectives. Once the client's objectives are clearly established they should impact on all decisions made by other people involved in the project - project managers, designers, contractors, sub-contractors, etc. If the project management objectives are ill-defined or too tightly prescribed it will have a detrimental effect so choosing the right Project Management team is crucial.
