Since its first edition Modern Construction Management has successfully provided a background to how construction companies operate, the management techniques involved, their decision-making and how these decisions are successfully implemented. Over the decades since the first edition the structure of the industry, the techniques adopted and the processes have changed. Whilst the parties to a construction project have remained the same their responsibilities have changed. New materials, technologies and processes have been introduced.

This is the basis of career enhancement to executive and board level. This remains the aim of Modern Construction Management"--
