Project Management Fundamentals in Construction Finance

Wednesday, March 18 & Thursday, March 19, 2026

3-5 PM (ET), 12-2 PM (PT)

The success of a construction project results from the contributions and strengths of the entire team — including its financial manager — and requires open communication, understanding, and collaboration.

Managing, tracking, and forecasting the financial results on a construction project require an understanding of each project phase. This course teaches construction financial professionals the language of construction project management, how the information available relates to each phase of the project, and provides an expert’s insight on what can go wrong.

This course takes you on a journey through a sample job and maps it through every project phase, including adjusting and alignment of financials/data, and how to best collaborate with the project manager to deliver the most profitable results.

Learning Objectives

After this session, attendees will be able to:

Explain the structure and activities required for successful project management. List the project management steps and discuss the importance of collaboration with other construction project stakeholders. Identify potential project risks at all stages of the process. Describe all aspects of the contract life cycle, including all facets of project bid, acquisition, contract initiation, construction, and completion, including both operational and financial aspects. Discuss opportunities to improve communication to enhance project performance and safety.

Prerequisites
