- Abstract
- This primer is a digest of the information contained in the Construction Industry Institute (CII) Special Product, "Project Materials Management Handbook". The topics discussed are a condensation of 15 of the separate chapters in the Handbook. The Handbook contains not only the chapters on the subjects in this primer, but also several appendices and checklists. In particular, it contains a postproject evaluation checklist, a guide to contractor selection, a set of definitions, and a bibliography on construction materials management. The purpose of this publication is to assist owners and contractors (engineering and construction) in using modern materials management systems and techniques which have been proven to be successful. Readers are encouraged to research the detailed documentation contained both in the Handbook and the References.
