Project Management for Shading
Project management methodologies tailored to shading installations covering procurement timelines, contractor coordination, progress monitoring, and variation management for sun control projects.
Module Overview
Shading installations often span multiple project phases and require coordination with numerous trades. This module covers project management principles specifically adapted for shading projects, including procurement lead times, contractor scheduling, progress monitoring, and variation management. You will learn to manage the unique challenges of shading projects including long lead times for imported products and the need for precise coordination with facade and ceiling contractors.
Learning Outcomes
- Identify the unique project management challenges associated with shading installations Apply procurement planning methodologies to manage lead times for imported shading products Evaluate contractor progress against project milestones and specification requirements Design project schedules that account for dependencies with other building trades Specify variation management procedures that protect the original design intent
