“I got trained for Primavera P6 PPM through Compass Consult. Honestly, the things that got me in were their competitive pricing and payment plans in offer. The thing that I highly admire about the training is that it is a very practical, hands-on training wherein you can learn while working on your own project. The trainers are highly experienced and fundamentally strong. I would strongly recommend the training to someone who needs hands-on experience in P6.”
Has technology changed the role of a construction project manager?
Discover how technology has changed the way project managers plan, execute, and manage construction projects.
How has technology changed the role of a construction project manager?
Before construction project management software grew in popularity, project managers and their teams relied on traditional project management methods, which were not only labour-intensive, time-consuming, and tedious but also led to processing errors and inaccurate project plans.
However, with construction program management software, project managers can simplify and streamline project management, giving them more flexibility to explore and implement modern project management methods and improve project success rates.
5 ways in which technology has made the job of a construction project manager easier

It has improved communication and collaboration
One of the most pressing issues previously, miscommunication has been significantly reduced by leveraging collaborative features in construction project management software. Any changes to project plans and schedules are reflected in real-time and accessible anytime, anywhere for team members, subcontractors, and stakeholders. This facilitates better coordination and information sharing.
It can produce more accurate cost estimates and budgeting
When construction project management software is integrated with finance or accounting software, project managers can use these integrations to come up with more accurate budget forecasts and cost estimates. This can help project managers and their team members track and monitor their project expenses and reduce unnecessary budget spending more effectively, reducing the risk of cost overruns.


It enables better scheduling and time management
Construction project management software such as Oracle Primavera enables project managers and project team members to manage the time required to complete a certain stage of a project more effectively. By using the scheduling and time management features of these project management tools, project managers can take into consideration various factors such as resource and manpower allocation and plan accordingly.
It helps project managers enhance safety and risks more effectively
With the availability of construction project management software, project managers can utilise the safety features of the platform to implement better safety protocols, incident response plans, and compliance procedures to minimise possible project management risks. This helps project managers reduce the probability of unforeseen accidents or injuries through enhanced safety management protocols.
