(In Engineering)
Project management is the science (and art) of organizing the components of
a engineering project, whether the project is development of a new project
or remedial works that is planned in a set of interrelated tasks executed
over a fixed period and within certain cost and other limitations.

17. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
Project management is the discipline of
planning, organizing, securing,
managing, leading, and controlling
resources to achieve specific goals. A
project is a temporary endeavour with a
defined beginning and end (usually time-
constrained, and often constrained by
funding or deliverables), undertaken to
meet unique goals and objectives,
typically to bring about beneficial change
or added value.
(Wikipedia)

18. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
Project management involves a process of first establishing a plan and then
implementing that plan to accomplish the project objectives.
Taking the time to develop a well-thought-out plan is critical to the successful
accomplishment of any project.
The key to effective project control is measuring actual progress and comparing it to
planned progress on a timely and regular basis and taking corrective action immediately,
if necessary.

19. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
An environmental engineer
works very closely with
industry and companies to
ensure that they are in
compliance with all
environmental regulations
and laws. In addition to
just working to ensure
compliance an
environmental engineer
also works with the
company to develop less
costly methods of
production that will still be
effective and within
regulations. This function
is very important for
companies as decreasing
the cost of production is
important in overall
revenue for the company.

20. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
An environmental engineer spends a considerable amount of time keeping up-do-date
with current changes to environmental regulations and codes. He or she also must be
familiar with current trends in businesses and solutions that other industries are using to
remain within requirements while decreasing production costs. Attending seminars,
workshops and ongoing training is important for an environmental engineer. The
engineer must also be able to effectively communicate this information to management
teams within the various industries and help them establish plans to include new,
environmentally friendly way of increasing production and decreasing costs.

21. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
Environmental engineers are often required to write reports on the condition of various
types of environmental hazards or potential environmental hazards. After completing
reports the engineer is often retained to supervise the clean up or decontamination of
the area based on the report. The environmental engineer may also have to supervise
the clean up to be sure it is done in accordance with all regulations. Risk assessments of
clean up sites, potential hazards, development of new manufacturing plants or new
development areas are all completed by environmental engineers.

22. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
Common work activities include:
1)Performing various soil, air or water tests to determine the risk of contamination or the
degree of contamination that has occurred.
2)Writing reports and proposals developed from data collected on the various
environmental issues in a given area.
3)Developing site clean-up plans, monitoring their completion and adherence to
environmental regulations.
4)Meeting with clients to formulate more cost effective and environmentally friendly
processing methods or waste disposal methods.
5)Meeting with government agencies to coordinate services in times of environmental
accidents or catastrophes.
6)Travelling to various construction or industry sites as requested.

Tender and Costing
• Tender: The General Content:
 PWD Form of Contract
 Form of Tender;
 Letter of Acceptance of Tender;
 Special Provisions to the Conditions of Contract
 Contract Drawings;
 Specifications;
 Summary of Tender
 Schedule of Rates or Bills of Quantities
 Treasury Instructions as set in the Appendix to the Conditions of Contract;
 Any other relevant documents included therein

67. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
• This contract documentation provides a
concise picture of the objectives for the
electrical project work to be done.
• It also serves as a record of intent for owners
and as instructions and guidance for
contractors, electricians, installers, and others
performing the work.

68. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
• Contract documents, which might also include surveys and
test data, are legal documents, and they can be used as
evidence in court cases involving contractor malfeasance, or
failure to comply with the intent of the drawings and
specifications.
• The present conformity to accepted formats for drawings and
specifications is the result of years of practical experience
reinforced by accepted national and international standards
issued by government agencies and private standards
organizations

69. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
• The standards organizations are advised by experienced
personnel from the ranks of manufacturers, contractors, and
other interested parties. The intent of standards is to produce
unambiguous documentation that is understandable by all
project participants, from engineers and architects to
contractors, project supervisors, electricians, and installers.
• A tender is, by dictionary definition, an offer to supply goods
and/or services at a fixed rate. In many cases this is a simple
procedure but on larger jobs the tender can be become
complicated, and considerable experience is necessary to
complete such a tender correctly.

70. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
• Specifications
• Specifications for buildings or projects are written legal
descriptions of the work to be performed by the contractor,
subcontractors and suppliers become the responsibilities and
duties of the architect/engineer, general contractor, and
owner. Specifications and drawings are integral parts of the
contract requirements for the performance of work.
• Because specifications are a significant part of a legally
binding contract, typically involving expenditures of
thousands or even millions of Malaysia Ringgit (RM), it is
important that they be mutually compatible with the
drawings and as free as possible of errors or discrepancies.

71. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
• It has long been known that even minor errors in wording or
intent or the presentation of incorrect data or measurements
can result in expensive repairs or replacements of hardware,
lost time in the completion of the schedule, and serious
project cost overruns due to delays and the need for
additional labor and supervision.
• In most engineering and architectural firms, regardless of size,
specifications writers are skilled persons with technical
backgrounds who report to a responsible project supervisor.
The preparation of an error-free specification is a time-
consuming task calling for the writer’s patience and the ability
to deal effectively with complex technical details.

72. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
• The process might call for many drafts and revisions following
the review, comments, and corrections made by persons
within the architect/engineering organization with specialized
knowledge and experience in each of the trades involved in
the project. As with drawings, all responsible reviewers are
expected to sign the final version that is released for bid.
• Nevertheless, this does not relieve specifications writers of
their responsibilities, because they are expected to have
sufficient knowledge of the project to make them capable of
finding and resolving any discrepancies between the
specifications and the drawings.

73. EAT 463
Project Engineering Management
• Bill of Quantities (BQ)
• A document used in tendering in the contracting industry in
which materials, parts and labor (and their costs) are
itemized. It also (ideally) details the terms and conditions of
construction, supply and installation or repair contract and
itemizes all work to enable a contractor to price the work for
which he or she is bidding
• Refer example.
