Features: Summary CM (Construction Management) is a widely used engineering contracting and management model in countries such as the United States, Canada, European countries, and Australia. The CM model has created significant benefits for investors in shortening the construction cycle, reducing project costs, and improving project quality. This book provides a detailed introduction to the basic theories and methods of the CM model and analyzes engineering cases of domestic CM model trials based on foreign literature and data. Main contents include: the basic concepts and definitions of the CM model, the differences between CM and PM (Project Management), GC (General Contracting), and project general contracting; the contract structure of the CM model, the composition of CM contract terms, the calculation model of CM contract prices, and the calculation method of GMP; the organizational structure of the CM model, the basic framework of the CM team organizational structure, and the CM organizational work manual; the basic methods and characteristics of CM international bidding and evaluation. This book analyzes the value and necessity of introducing the CM model in China's construction field and explores the possibility of applying the CM model and the issues to be noted when applying it. It can serve as a reference for relevant departments in China's construction economy and management to study the CM model, as well as for owners, supervisors, and construction units in the construction industry to conduct CM model pilot projects.
