Preconstruction
DESCRIPTION
Pre-construction services are used in planning a construction project before the actual construction begins. These services are often referred to as preconstruction or precon. It is a modern practice, considered to be part of construction project management, which is the overall planning, coordination, and control of a project from inception to completion aimed at meeting a client’s requirements in order to produce a functionally and financially viable project. In the long established design-bid-build method of construction project delivery, a project would be entirely designed before being built.[1] This resulted in a package of plans and specifications which formed the construction documents. .
