3.1.1. Fundamentals of Planning
• In construction, all projects are constraint bound: a project needs to
be finished within a given time period, below a specific budget, to a
given quality and standard. Thus, for the project to be realized and
labeled as success, it has got to overcome the constraints. The best
way construction managers prepare themselves against these
constraints is to prepare a thorough plan for the execution of the
project.
• Manpower planning can be defined as a management technique for
forecasting and selecting the type and number of employees required
in order to achieving specific objectives.
• In construction there is a need for long term planning at the
organizational level and short-term planning at site level.
• Generally, manpower planning is the process including
forecasting, developing and controlling by which a firm
ensures that it has the right number of people and the right
kind of people at the right places at the right time doing
work for which they are economically most useful.
