11. Cost Oriented Planning Convincing the EIC to prepare the
Budgets is the biggest task. Because the forces are so dynamic, actual
scenario is expected to be different from the work orders, hence he is not
in a position to do so. Most of the times he would argue that because of
delay in submission of drawings by the client, planning is not very easy. But
to meet the Project Deadline / it is in the best interests of the client to break
the work order quantities into monthly quantities. Further an overall cap is
required to be kept on the total quantities to be consumed for the project.
Monthly requirements can then be prepared on the basis of monthly
budgets. info@consultconstruction.com www.consultconstruction.com

20. Role of Project Manager Work Planning Daily / Weekly /
Monthly: When we plan for work we need to keep in mind client priority,
availability of resources, availability of drawing & front, weather, Funds
etc. Pre planning for FIM / Own Material: Pre planning (system and
procedure) is required for FIM and Own material so as to make it available
in time. Complete responsibility to ensure compliance of the functions by
all the Dept.: Engineering, HR & Admin, Stores, Accounts Sub Contractor
Work Order: Sub Contractor work order should be prepared on time with
their acceptance. Timely submission of bills with due verification from

QSD at HO, if any . If delay reasons need to be submitted to HO.


Subcontractor bills are prepared in due time and are paid after pre-audit at
HO. info@consultconstruction.com www.consultconstruction.com
21.
21. Role of Project Manager cont Understanding of Site
Performance both in terms of actual execution and profitability and
submitting regular MIS to head office. Ensuring proper back up in case if
any employee leaves the organization. Weekly meetings with the Core
team and ensuring due preparation of minutes for mailing the same to
Head office. Checking all the records fortnightly viz. stores inflow,
outflow, vehicle logbooks, and HR records. To focus on all areas where
chances of cost overrun exist by ensuring regular monitoring. Maintaining
employee morale under all situations. info@consultconstruction.com
www.consultconstruction.com
22.
22. Reconciliation FIM & Principal Material Standard Consumption
norms to be defined for every item in the WO. For e.g. For 1 CUM of M20
- concrete production Cement 140 Kg, Sand 875 Kgs, Agg 1100
Kgs Physical verification of Steel, Sand and Aggregate on the same day
on which reco is prepared. Material scattered at various locations
Consumption for unbilled extra items to be excluded. Stock records to be
updated regularly. Shuttering Repetitions. If material consumption levels
are found in excess of standards appropriate action needs to be taken for
further control and identification of sub-contractor responsible for the same
to enforce timely recovery. info@consultconstruction.com

23. Materials Usage Standard Theoretical Qty * (1 + Normal
Wastage Norms) Qty is derived from design and drawings Normal
Wastage Norms also change from Project to Project depending on nature
of work, method of application However Wastage from following is not a
normal wastage Using Non-Standard Material Excess Purchase

certification: Cumulative Executed Quantity. All pending extra item
claims should be included, if pending. Necessary follow up for W.O
amendment if Actual Qty > WO Qty. Release of Qty on Hold for want of
various reasons. Fight for the incentive clause. If any company asset is
given on rental / hire basis to other party as per instruction from client, the
same should be claimed in final bill . If resources like equipment /
manpower have remained ideal due to non availability of front, it should be
claimed in the final bill. NOC shall have to be obtained from various

departments of the client info@consultconstruction.com

30. Project Completion cont.FIM and Raw Material
Reconciliation with bill and balance qty.:Formula: Total Material Inward
Less: Material Returned / Transferred Less: Standard Consumption =
Balance Quantity at Site / Store In case this quantity is not available at site
/ store, there are following possibilities: Excess consumption as
compared to standard Theft / Pilferage during the project In case of
excess consumption, some portion can be recovered from measurement
contractor if not recovered till date. Proper justifications are required from
project manager and appropriate action should be taken in case of
abnormal difference between actual balance and standard balance
Balance FIM material started to returning and take its documents with
receiving sign and stamp from client. info@consultconstruction.com

31.
31. Project Completion cont. Fulfillment of client work completion
procedure: In case of project completion client have checklist for same so
you have to ask same from client and compile each point. Receivable &
Liability Status & Clearance: Get status of project liability with break up of
nature of creditor and special remark for local creditors. Follow up for
payment receivable from client after bill certification Clear local liabilities
to avoid any demobilization harassment from them. Statutory compliance:
Follow up and get pending WCT & TDS receivable certificates from client.
Give all necessary details for VAT return filing to local sales tax
consultant and other details, if any required for audit. Get any pending

36. Normally in a manufacturing set up we divide the material as :-a.
Repetitive Items Raw Materials Storesb. Non Repetitive Items
Capital Goods Major Repairs Primary purpose of classification is to
Control:- - Quality - Cost - Timely Supply But how do we classify in the
construction sector ? info@consultconstruction.com
www.consultconstruction.com
37.
37. The most comonly used classification is ABC Analysis.But
prerequisite is that the project should have a standardized bill of
materialslisting the physical quantities, unit rate and total cost for each

item.1. Identify the material required for the Project2. Determine Usage
Value by multiplying the Qty required and its Unit rate.3. Calculate the
percentage usage value with respect to the total material cost for the
project.4. Arrange the Items in descending order of usage value5. Give
Red Colour till 70% and thereafter Green Colour till 90%.6. Mark A class
for Red Coloured Items / B Class for Green Colour and C Class for the
balance.Lets see a small excel sheet on this.

39. Inventory Planning The construction material Inventory Plan
aims at evolving materials stock-holding levels to meet project execution
plan, with minimum investment on inventory. In typical project from
Inventory point of view , we may classify the materials as follows:info@consultconstruction.com www.consultconstruction.com
40.
40. Take the case of stocking of cement at the site :- Site
Requirement 500 Bags / Month for 12 Months Order Cost Rs. 500
per order Carrying Cost 10% of unit rate Transport Capacity 100
Bags Lead Time 5 Days Safety Stock 100 Bags Material Life 2
Months Unit Rate - Rs. 250 per bag info@consultconstruction.com

100 + (5 * 20) 200 Bags info@consultconstruction.com
www.consultconstruction.com
43.
43. Commercial Procurementi) Goods cont Goods: Define a
Purchase Policy Purchases to be sourced by Head office. Purchases
to be sourced locally with approval from Head office. Purchases to be
sourced locally with the approval from Project Manager. Material required
for Project: Project Manager to calculate total project material
requirement through Bill of Quantity (BOQ). This would be categorized
as FIM , Raw / Principle Material, Consumable / Hardware / Tools Material,
Capital goods - Plant / Machinery / Equipment Monthly Requirement
info@consultconstruction.com www.consultconstruction.com
44.
44. Commercial Procurementi) Goods cont Placement of Order
(PO): - Purchase order being the last document of procurement process,
so it is necessary to take care before placing the order. Certain details
which need to be mentioned Serially numbered Time & Place of
Delivery Material Quality Description and specifications UOM
Manufacturing date should be latest and not more than two months in case
of certain items like Conplast / Admixture (To get maximum time of its
utilization) info@consultconstruction.com www.consultconstruction.com
45.
45. Commercial Procurementi) Goods cont Materials Indents:
Authorized person should be allowed to raise an indent. The status about
present level of stock should also be given. Market Survey / Enquiry /
Quotation: Relevant journals, yellow pages, market directories etc.
Company can ask quotation / price list with detailed terms and conditions
with its validity from various vendors. Purchase department can take
right decision after comparison and analysis of rate, quality, terms &
conditions with price escalation terms and service condition

space near stores is required to park Equipments and Vehicles (JCB, TM,
Tractor, etc.) info@consultconstruction.com www.consultconstruction.com
52.
52. Stacking & Labeling Stacking of Material: - - Material not to be
kept directly on ground (1ft above surface) - Rain - Liquid Items should be
tightly covered in order to avoid wastage - Cement / Wooden Items need to
be covered by Tarpoline for safety against rains - Arrangement on the basis
of frequency of usage and in order of priority - Single item to be put at
single place instead of multiple locations - Easily countable (Proper policy

for Bulk Items) Safety to be ensured:- - Heavy material on surface / lower


height & light weighted material in rack Label should be affixed on rack on
each items with Material code (Additionally item description would be
preferable) info@consultconstruction.com www.consultconstruction.com

128. Model of Accounting Branch / Centralized The model most
prevalent, provided you have good team of accountants with you is the HO
and Branch Model. Branches maintain accounts at the construction site
itself. Because if we have a smart accountant at the site that would serve
as the best internal control measure. Integration of accounts and Inventory
would then be possible. Complexity involved is you then need a perfect
co-ordination between HO and Branches. Reconciliation between the two
is required on a regular basis. As many a times HO would directly be
making payment to Branchs creditors without routing the same through the
branch. In case of centralised accounting the certification systems have to
be perfect. You would need all the documents to be certified by the Site
Incharge and respective area incharge before booking the same in
accounts. info@consultconstruction.com www.consultconstruction.com

135. Banking Whether centralized or Branch wise We are
presently in a world where banks are all connected, so we may opt for a
Centralized banking system, but then if you have a HO and the Branch
Model, you need perfect controls in place before the HO releases funds.
Payment Authorization Vouchers A system that can be implemented,
similar to controls that we have in SAP. Further if we have to plan the
funds and ensure that funds generated from a particular site are available
for only that site after HO takes out its share of profit, then it is advisable to
have separate accounts for the branches. info@consultconstruction.com

136.
136. Managing the Financing Needs of the business Limits with the
Bank Fund Based / Non-Fund based. Non-Fund based Limits are of
great importance in the construction sector, as for any Project that is about
to begin, the client is willing to give Mobilisation Advances against Bank
Gaurantees. Hence as a consultant you can fight hard with the bank to
secure best terms in the Non-fund based limits. With a good order book
you can get away by giving 25-30% collateral to some of the private banks
in the market. info@consultconstruction.com www.consultconstruction.com
