Synopsis
This book, widely regarded as the leading text on the subject, reflects the broad understanding required by today's cost planners in their increasingly important role as the client's financial manager. The book has been updated and reorganised to reflect the industry's shift from work in the public sector to the private sector, and greater emphasis on refurbishment rather than new work.The contents are divided into three parts, covering the various stages of the construction process:Stage 1: The brief and the budget - establishing the budget from the standpoint of the client's needs and resourcesStage 2: Designing the budget - designing the project within the client's budgetStage 3: Controlling the cost - maintaining the budget throughout the project.At each stage theoretical examples are included, together, for the first time, with some up-to-date, real life examples.

Review
"Still ranks as the classic text for many practitioners and academics...well written, as expected, and adds considerable value to this very interesting topic area."
Engineering, Construction & Architectural Management
"This is a very useful book that gives the opportunity to look at schemes, very much from the finance aspect, and it would be useful reading for people moving into the area of economics and the professional role as the client's financial manager. It provides background reading to many of the degree programmes currently available."
