Review: "Construction projects are time-consuming and expensive. They frequently take longer and cost much more than originally anticipated - and often the problem is poor planning at the pre-design phase of building procurement."--BOOK JACKET. "Building in Value brings together many experts in the field to outline the wide range of tools, techniques and procedures which can and should be used to make the building procurement phase as efficient as possible and to ensure that future problems in the design and construction of the building are anticipated. As such it integrates strategic, financial and construction management techniques."--BOOK JACKET. "The book is suitable for a wide range of courses including construction management, construction economics, cost engineering and architectural engineering as well as being of interest to practitioners in this field."--BOOK JACKET.
