SCMA Practical Project Management Lifecycle Playbook — 2026 Digital Edition

Short Description

A practical end-to-end project management playbook for project managers, consultants, PMC teams and construction professionals. Covers the full Design–Bid–Build lifecycle from initiation and planning through procurement, design, construction, handover, closeout and operational-readiness awareness.

Product Description

Manage the complete project lifecycle with one practical, structured playbook.

The SCMA Practical Project Management Lifecycle Playbook — 2026 Digital Edition is designed for project managers, project directors, consultants, PMC teams, contractors, project controls professionals and client-side delivery teams who need to connect project-management principles to real project delivery.

Rather than treating project management as a collection of isolated topics, the Playbook follows the complete Design–Bid–Build lifecycle, connecting decisions, evidence, responsibilities, controls and handoffs from project initiation through formal closeout.

The book covers 25 practical chapters addressing project value, governance, scope, requirements, planning, consultant procurement, design management, contractor procurement, mobilization, construction delivery, quality, HSE, progress, risk, change, delay, claims, reporting, handover, final account, operational-readiness awareness, lessons learned, stage gates, lifecycle maps, RACI, decision routing and SCMA tool selection.

A continuous worked case — Riverside Office Complex — is used throughout the Playbook to demonstrate how management decisions, evidence states, risks, interfaces and handoffs develop across the lifecycle without inventing unsupported conclusions.
