Explain project life cycle for construction project base on Kelly’s model

Planning
 Conceptual
Set up client organization for briefing. Consider requirements, appoints the consultant. Prepare
general outline of requirements and plan future action.
 Feasibility study
Feasibility study is to carry out studies of user requirements, site conditions, planning, design,
cost, as necessary to reach decisions. To provide the client with an appraisal and
recommendation in order that he may determine the form in which the project is to proceed,
ensuring that it is feasible, functionally, technically and financially.
 Definition
This definition is developing the brief further. Carry out studies on user requirements, technical
problems, planning, design and costs as necessary to reach decisions. To determine general
approach to layout, design and construction in order to obtain authoritative approval of the client
in the outline proposals and accompanying report.
 Scheme design
Scheme design is final development of the brief, full design of the projects by architect,
preliminary design by engineers, preparation of cost plan and full explanatory report and
submission of proposals for all approvals. To complete the brief and decide on particular
proposals, include loaning arrangement appearance, constructional method. Outline specification
and cost to obtain all approvals.
 Detail design
Detail design is full design of every part and component of the building by collaborating of all
concerned, to complete cost checking designs. To obtain final decision on every matter related to
design, specification, construction and cost.
 Procurement
Procurement method is selected. Tendering the project. Referring to Standard Form of Contract
in implementing the project.
Execution
 In order to achieve the best overall long term economics savings, it should concern the
contractor’s method of construction that comply with the specification but have an impact on the
life cycle plan of the project. The method of construction gives major influence on the related
cost-in-use. For Project Control, the 5M: Materials, Machineries, Manpower, Methodology,
Money. Tools for monitoring (CPM, S-Curve, Cost Control...)
Operation
 Certificate of Completion and Compliance (CCC). Start generate income. Important part to
playing physical asset maintenance management Attribute to maintenance do not remain uniform
or static throughout a project’s life and therefore need to be reviewed at frequent intervals to
assess their implications within the management of cost-in-use. Renovation/ upgrading/
refurbishment. Demolition/ rebuilding/ reconstruction/ redevelopment.
