Today I had a conversation with a client about the benefits of hiring day rate contractors in the Project Management space. And here are my two cents on the subject. In the world of project management, adaptability and expertise reign supreme, day rate contractors emerge as invaluable assets to any organisation. Here's why hiring a day rate contractor is a no brainer for any company looking to deliver critical projects/scale up their business. ▶ Agile Solutions: Projects often present unforeseen challenges and shifting priorities. Day rate contractors offer the agility to swiftly address these hurdles, providing on-demand support without the delay of traditional hiring processes. ✔ Specialised Expertise: Every project is unique, requiring a diverse set of skills. Day rate contractors bring specialised expertise tailored to your project's precise requirements, ensuring optimal performance and timely delivery. ✖ Cost Efficiency: Project budgets are tight, and every euro counts. With day rate contractors, you pay for the days worked, eliminating the overhead costs associated with full-time employees. This cost-effective approach maximizes project ROI without compromising quality. ♦ Scalable Workforce: Project scopes go up and down, necessitating flexibility in how you allocate your resources. Day rate contractors offer scalability, enabling you to scale your workforce up or down as project demands evolve, ensuring efficient resource utilisation and project success. 🎱 Fresh Insights: Collaboration breeds innovation. Day rate contractors inject fresh perspectives into your project team, challenging conventional thinking and fostering creativity. Their diverse backgrounds and experiences enhance problem-solving and drive continuous improvement. In summary, day rate contractors aren't just hired help—they're strategic partners in project management success. Ready to elevate your project outcomes!

Transitioning from Contract Administrator to Project Manager is one of the hardest career steps in construction. The reason is that the industry is reluctant to give first-timers a go due to the perceived risk. But becoming a PM is achievable if you are prepared to actively manage your career to get there. Here are some things you can do to gain the knowledge and experience to step up: · Understudy your Project Manager ie. do the job without the title! Take on as many of your PM’s daily activities as you can. It will give you something to point to having already done that work when you’re looking to step up. Pro tip: get involved in stakeholder engagement, design management, and programme management. · Learn what others in your project team do – knowledge is power, as it allows you to understand the 'why' behind what's happening on-site in the construction process beyond the paper trail. · Demonstrate your ability to make decisions – after all, this is what a PM does daily. If there’s a problem at work, show your PM that you have a solution for consideration. Even if it’s not actioned, your initiative won’t go unnoticed. · Evaluate your current business – is there room for promotion on smaller projects? How many other like-minded CAs are you competing with? Not every company can offer career progression, and if you recognise this, it's best to find somewhere with the career progression opportunities you seek. · Be vocal about your plans to step up – be ACTIVE in letting your Manager know you are wanting to progress. No matter how good you are, if you don't make them aware of your goals, chances are they will leave you in the position you're currently in. Put yourself on their radar! #contractadministrator #projectmanager #constructionjobs #constructionindustry #ConstructionPeople #hiring

Head of Project Management at Rider Levett Bucknall | Transforming and Navigating Complex Projects Through Service Excellence
“How do I justify the cost of hiring a project manager?” It’s this question that makes most clients choose to hire a lead consultant for their projects instead of a dedicated project manager. On the face of it, this can appear to be more cost-efficient. The reality, however, is that most clients who go this route often end up spending much more money over time, And find that it can negatively impact their project’s long-term success. While a lead consultant can oversee your contractors and ensure that they are complying with your agreed-upon specifications, A project manager takes on more comprehensive control over a project, focusing on safeguarding your interests from beginning to end. They make sure that your contractors, consultants, budgets and targets are aligned and accountable, and you’re on track to achieve your goals efficiently and effectively. Some of the ways we do this are by: ➡️ Conducting site checks to confirm that the pace and quality match your expectations ➡️ Verifying that your instructions are actioned, and information from contractors is accurate ➡️ Tracking project progress and finding ways to resolve any discrepancies between planned and actual outcomes ➡️ And providing solutions to minimize any delays, thereby offsetting their impacts Without a project manager, these critical tasks often fall to the client, But not every client is equipped to fulfil these roles, thereby threatening the project’s continuity, viability and ultimate success. You may save on costs in the short term if you decide to opt for a lead consultant instead of a project manager, But the higher risks, compromises on quality, and potential delays are just not worth it. #ProjectManagement #Business #BestAdvice

The transition from Contract Administrator to Project Manager is a significant career move that involves taking on broader responsibilities and a more direct leadership role. As such, you need to inspire and motivate your team, set clear goals, and ensure everyone is working towards common objectives. The following is what’s at the core of effective project management: 1). Lead by example: Demonstrate the work ethic, professionalism, and dedication you expect from your team. 2). Communicate effectively: Initially, more communication is better than less to convey project goals, expectations, and feedback clearly and effectively. 3). Build trust: Foster trust by being transparent, reliable, and supportive. Keep your commitments and be honest with your team. Especially acknowledging when you make a mistake. It’s also important to understand and manage team dynamics to ensure a productive and harmonious working environment by: 1). Recognising individual strengths: Identify the strengths of each team member and assign tasks that leverage these abilities where possible. 2). Promoting collaboration and teamwork: Facilitate regular onsite meetings to discuss progress, outline tasks / responsibilities, and provide updates on milestones and changes (eg. scope or timelines) to keep everyone aligned with project goals. 3). Addressing conflicts promptly: Resolve conflicts swiftly to prevent them from affecting team morale and productivity. And, last but not least, prioritise clear communication: 1). Set clear expectations: Ensure that all team members understand their roles, responsibilities, and the project’s objectives. 2). Provide regular updates: Keep the team informed about project progress, changes, and any issues that arise. 3). Encourage open dialogue: Foster a supportive environment for team communication through regular formal meetings, one-on-one informal meetings, active listening, involving team members in decisions, an ‘open door’ policy, and by encouraging the team to share any concerns. Stay tuned next week when I’ll share some more practical tips as you move from CA into the PM space. #ConstructionPeople #contractadministrator #projectmanager #constructionjobs
