- Abstract
- This report has its origins in the Business Roundtable's Construction Industry Cost Effectiveness Project. Report A-6 of this project noted that the construction industry has been slow to adopt up-to-date methods of project control. Our purpose in this research is to identify and report on those cost and schedule control techniques which have been found to be effective. We found no breakthroughs in techniques or technology and we did not expect to. Again, our purpose is to consolidate these techniques and make them available to those who would use them.
