INTRO:
We have talked about the ‘tools’ or ‘controls’ that a Project Manager has at their disposal to
manage costs on projects. These ‘tools’ or ‘controls’ are not merely constructs, but tried and
tested methods that form the basis of ‘project control systems’ critical to a projects success, and
on which the majority of project managers put their faith. These systems exist in more forms and
flavors than ever before. But are they all up to the challenge?
ASSIGNMENT:
For this assignment you will be asked to research and report on one project control system that is
currently in use in the construction industry. You will be required to prepare a written and verbal
report, as outlined below:
Written Format

1. Name and function of the example.
2. Brief description of its history, development, how you were made aware of it,
are/were you a user of the system, current market share, etc.
3. How it is used in the setting you discovered/researched it in.
4. Observations on: efficiency, ease of use, popularity (within the setting you

5. Cost information (if available).
