Abstract
All parties involved in the construction process - owners, designers, and constructors - strive for project success. A study performed by the CII Project Organization Task Force has concluded that the objective-setting process is a major determinant of this success. This publication summarizes several key areas of the study. The first area discussed herein is the mangement of objectives througout the owner's, designer's, and constructor's organizations. The management process is illustrated, and three typical problem areas impeding effective objective setting are identified. An approach for managing project objectives is then outlined and defined. Also discussed is the process of communicating objectives between owner, designer, and constructor.
