Economy in Construction
Only a couple of years back, market for a
Builder was booming. He was least worried
about the cost of construction. His profits
were high, even though he was not selling,
people were buying from him. With
recession, everything has changed and
competition was created. They had plenty of
options. They could now bargain, and have
lucrative deal for themselves.
Economy has to be targeted without
compromising in any way on quality,
amenities, specifications, and/or delivery
schedules. Economy in construction, could be
achieved by reducing on wastages and
pilferages, reducing on inventories, repeated
uses of shuttering material, and saving heavily
on construction time, through better
management techniques, use of computer,
information technology etc.
Builders, have craze in ordering full quantity of
materials, thinking that if the materials are
available on site, then what they have to look
after is arranging only labour in getting speedy
completion of work. But that is not true. Many
times specifications, amenities are to be
changed on technical reasons and/or as
required by the planning/sanctioning
Authority or by Client for that matter.
Thank you
