You’re right. Construction Management requires a combination of technical, managerial, and regulatory expertise unique to the construction industry. CM is a specialized field because it goes beyond general project management, demanding a deep understanding of construction methods, materials, building codes, and safety regulations. A CM professional must coordinate subcontractors, engineers, architects, and clients while keeping projects on schedule and within budget. Skills such as risk management, site supervision, and knowledge of construction technology are essential. The challenges are unique too. Unexpected site conditions, regulatory compliance, and safety hazards require expertise that general project managers often do not encounter.
