Provided Project Management consulting work for a local architect firm in developing the PQP and Implementation plan. The most challenging I must say.
Being architects, some felt that the role of project manager is a birth right, yet oblivious to the real crux of project management. To some, project management is as what being taught in one of the modules in one of the semester during their degree program. Not trying to comprehend the body of knowledge within such discipline, starts debating on the terminology such as "plan" and confusing themselves with project plan against the plan as in the technical drawings.
My message is simple, that is why there exist Quantity Surveyors (QS), Engineers and Contractors or Constructors, each with its own unique expertise to be integrated within the framework of project management, which they claimed to know but in actual fact, they don't!
