The processes necessary to accomplish a project are mapped out in a construction project plan. However, the project checker must first consider the outcome before including the levels of action that will lead to it. To ensure that their strategy remains in line with the project, the project checker must consider the needs and desires of the customer. Construction project checklists are an efficient tool for implementing safety precautions and can assist in identifying hazards at the worksite.


In project management, different steps are included.

●      Initiation

●      Planning

●      Executing and monitoring

●      Closure


Initiation


Project initiation is the first phase of beginning a new project. You determine the project's purpose and the value creation it will provide at the project start phase. Then, you can use that knowledge to win support from important stakeholders.


Construction Project Checklist for the Initiation Process


●      From start to finish, the project's goal and criteria

●      Ability, cost, and time are all resources.

●      Participants-RACI

●      Project group

●      Plan for communication: kind, medium, and timing.

●      Tools and frameworks for project budgets include everything from project methodologies to project management tools, licensing, and other resources.

●      Risk identification, mitigation, and funding

●      Deliverables, a timetable, acceptance standards, or success metrics.

●      Reports, KPIs, and metrics


Planning


It entails the selection of technology, the definition of the work tasks, the calculation of the time and resources needed for each activity, and the detection of any interactions between the various work activities. A solid construction plan serves as the foundation for creating the budget and the work schedule.


Checklist for the Planning construction project


●      Your business's profitability

●      Attentiveness to employee and customer satisfaction

●      Create a cost management plan, a budget that takes into account both soft and hard costs.

●      Crete cash flow diagram.

●      The layout of the site's logistics, timetables, and procurement plans

●      Create a site safety strategy, source equipment, and inventory management strategies.


Execution


When a project is being executed, everything your team has prepared is put into action. Your team makes every effort to start initiatives off well.


You will spend less time preparing and much more time ensuring that plans are carried out as planned throughout the building project. Thus, the monitoring stage of managing projects complements the implementation stage.


Checklist for executing the process


●      Log your everyday activities, tasks, and safety.

●      Keep track of and control change orders.

●      Track the consumption of materials.

●      Watch who enters and leaves the location.

●      Monitoring apparatus

●      Compare costs to cash flow.


Closure


The project's completion is the final stage. It is customary to hold a post-mortem meeting to analyze what worked and what didn't. The team then determines the remaining activities that need to be completed, computes the final budget, and produces the project report.


Conclusion


Builders, site supervisors, architects, planners, and other members of the project team can all benefit from using construction project management checklists to streamline their operating procedures and raise the standard of their workplaces' quality and safety. If the construction project checklist is not there, it makes the process much more complex and time-consuming.
