INTERVIEW WITH THE PROJECT MANAGER

We conduct an Interview with Engr. ___________________ of _____________about

his experience in being the construction manager for 9 years. He shares his experiences
and what he learned on site also his strategies in the tasks and during critical condition.

1. Are you a project manager or a construction manager?

Project manager is one of my role because I am part of construction management,

because project manager usually focused on the operation of the building to finish the
project and in my part as a Construction manager that’s one of my part, to make sure to
finish the project but it also includes the money, time line and the permits.

2. What is your strategy for working with Underperforming?

Every year or quarterly we have a survey on those people, we will call them together
with their pairs so individually there is a survey forms that were distributing to them as
well as individual interview. We’re asking them about the problems, needs for help and
what are that things that can be improve. Sometimes when it’s really in underperforming
that they need you, there is no choice but to reprimand that you’re always late and etc.

3. How would you describe your communication and leadership this time?

I am fair, especially in my role in construction manager, we were lie the referee of the
owner and contractor so you really need to lead in both parties. My style in that situation
is you need to be fair, you will talk to them especially in construction you need to learn to
be fair.

4. What general techniques do you use to determine if project is progressive?

Before we start the project we have a timeline and then we have a targeted milestone
because most of the milestone there are interconnected so if you missed something it will
have an effect to the others it will have a domino effect, so you need to focus in a
particular item to meet the milestone that’s our matrix to meet the completion on time.

5. Have you improve your knowledge regarding project management?

The good thing actually is you will evolve to learn, especially me I’m a civil engineer
but in construction manager and project manager you will learn other things for example
we have a EPMC, they are experts in operation of the building example you will turn
over all of that so how does that it work, they are experts in codes from them i got a
knowledge if what’s the right thing to do and not. They will show a codes and references
to me so that will be my plan in the owner and in our management that the design is not
appropriate so it should be done like this, those are the learning that I’ve learn to
improve.

6. What is the hardest part of project management?

On my experience, it’s the money because everything connects in money. Because if

you didn’t hit your particular timeline that’s equivalent of money because you will extend
everything will extend so for me that’s the hardest. Because in our company we have a
chronology of priority that needs to follow first is the speed, quality, time then cost. Even
if the last one is the cost that’s also the hardest because you will spend money in safety,
and quality because we will hire a third party so if we will extend a time it will cost
money because we will pay them. Based on my experience those are the scenarios.

7. What are the correlation challenges that you already encountered?

In communication, actually there are co- worker that’s easy to communicate and
talk with but hard to work with because most of the time what we talked or plan is not
going to happen at the end that’s the hard one so communication wise, it’s easy to
communicate but you also need to understand them because that’s my role as project
manager you need to be understanding.

8. Who’s the most challenging to talk with, the client, supplier or managers?

It depends in the situation but both of them are challenging to talk with, for example
there is a owner that wants this to happen but on site it is not appropriate, how will you
explain to a person or the owner that what he wants to happen is impossible because they
have money for the project. The suppliers also because of the delayed delivery in
materials.

9. What if during the construction of the project, the client suddenly ask for
some changes?

There are timelines there that being disrupted. Disruptive in your timeline because
you did that based on your design so there are instances like that, you need to evaluate it
first before you commit to the client. Usually were informing first the owner that we
really need to do this because of code compliance but there’s a time extension.

10. When we know if the project is abrupt?

Actually you will feel it because you have milestones if you’re not hitting your
milestones you have to think of it. Because if you already done the structural next is
mechanical, electrical then architectural. You will feel it because it’s a chronology that
once you fail you will think a solution as fast as you can.

11. How do you prioritize tasks in a project?

You need to list if what is the most critical and not so there you will prioritize the
most critical that really needs in the site, will it effect in safety to cost so this are our
priority because if there’s a problem in safety the operation will stop even if there is a
cost implication, because the reason why the accident happen because of the poor quality

of the project and because of that safety you will extend the time. That’s how I prioritize,
safety, quality, time and cost

12. What approach do you think when the target hits a roadblock that does not
go according to plan?

Usually you need to accept that there are things like that, example in our project
we plan that very well but suddenly we hit a plumbing pipe but we didn’t want that to
happen you just need to talk to the owner for the agreement to settle those things.

13. What do you mean of a successful project manager?

If you’re a project manager you need to be people person for me because people
will not follow you if they don’t trust you. Project managers here in our project have
different management skills but most of us are people person.

14. If you’re given a chance to manage a small and big project what will you
choose and why?

For me big project because in big projects you will learn more unlike the residential
because it is common to us.

15. What are the challenges you’ve during the project and how will you solve it?

Most needed is communication, for example if there is a change in design you need to
talk to the person who change it to explain it well and to be truthful.
