Effective Project Management is the key to project success. PM is the process of planning,
Organizing, Securing & Managing resources in order to successfully complete the project and
ensuring that the specific outcome & objectives are met. It requires coordinating effectively
with all parties to ensure adherence to scope, management of time, quality, cost & risk which
are the main factors necessary for successful project management.
We provide a total service of PM/CM for building projects, Industrial projects, Civil
engineering, Process engineering and other construction projects. The services we provide
are tailored to meet individual needs of each client/project. It ranges from specialized
assistance amongst in-house teams to full management of the process.

SCOPE (BRIEF) OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT SEVICES

7. Budget Management & Cash flow projections.
8. Review Bill of Quantities (BOQ).
9. Monitor compliance of plans and specifications.
2. TENDER PHASE
1. Identify short list of contractors.
2. Pre-qualifications of contractors for Tendering.
3. Completion of tenders & Negotiations with Contractors.
4. Preparation of Construction contracts.
2. CONSTRUCTION PHASE
1. Contract management.
2. Design changes management.
3. Project Time management.
4. Monitoring and documenting project delays and it's causes.
5. Controlling project budget / cash flow.
6. Project communications management.
2. Close – out phase
1. Review final certification of payment.
2. Coordinate and monitor testing of Equipment.
3. Preparation of a list of defects.
4. Obtain and review as-Built Documents.
5. Close-out Report.

Clients/investors want to make sure their realization conforms adherently to technical
documentation (design & specifications), regulations, valid standards, price & time.
Construction supervision is required before hand to assure successful completion of project in
terms of time, cost & quality. Professional Supervision of Construction Projects lead to Quality
projects, which in turn & most importantly ensures client and / or user satisfaction.
EPM provides best quality services for construction supervision for all types of projects
including the industrial and heavy electro-mechanical projects, EPM employs technically
qualified resources to make sure the project is built in accordance to design & specifications,
takes care of construction quality, oversees safety of the works, in addition to the prior issues
of the assignment which are execution planning, monitoring progress, quantity surveying &
cost monitoring services.

Construction supervision service include:

• Ensure that the works carried out are in compliance with specifications.
• Review and approve project shop drawings and material submittals.
• Supervise erection of specialized systems or equipment.
• Quality and frequency of testing.
• Quality control reporting.
• Quality control test records.
• Review/Check the contractor's measurements, in invoices & requisitions.
• Review to approve "As-Built" drawings.
• Ensure all manuals and warranties are delivered.
• Ensure receipt of all close-out documents.

Design documents prior to construction may contain errors, omissions & may be poorly
coordinated. If construction commences without detection of these issues change orders are
generated which will add-up to the project's cost & cause delays in time which automatically
delays the project completion date & cause disputes.
In depth & independent design review is essential for any project of any type and size to
identify errors omissions and lack of coordination of design documents to minimize the
sources of change orders which have negative effects on the project.
EPM Provides experienced and effective teams from different disciplines whom will strictly
improve design quality by proper independent reviews of the design documents and that will
minimize these errors so that the construction stage of the project will be successful.
 Design review services:

• Insure completeness of scope stated in the design documents.
• Insure adequacy, clarity of the design documents to obtain satisfactory tenders.
• Insure proper coordination and verification of the drawings of different trades.
• Insure that the applicable codes & regulations have been followed.
• Insure the quality of the design documents.
• Identify areas/elements for possible cost reductions.
• Identify all long-lead items which require early procurement for proper control of time.
• Design optimization services:
• In addition to the design review services, EPM has the experience and the resources from
• different disciplines to go beyond by suggesting more economic alternatives and assist the
• clients in its implementation to achieve maximum cost effectiveness of the project design.
• Identify elements of the project for possible cost reductions and/or value engineering
• and provide more economic alternatives.
• Assist clients in implementing the proposed alternatives.
• Application of latest energy saving techniques to the MEP design.
• Verification and optimization of all MEP systems.

Pre-Design Management Services
To start investing in the project, there are some other studies that should be executed to
support the decision taken concerning project quality level & the project cost and it's planned
time scale. These studies are essential for clients and Investors to make the early stage
decision, and to insure the project quality, cost and time savings.
EPM has the experience and the resources to perform most of these services and manage
the rest on the clients behalf to assure the quality of these services.
These studies and services are:

• Feasibility studies.
• Project budgeting.
• Project execution plan & responsibility assignment matrix.
• Recruitment of engineering & Architectural firms and other consultancy services through tendering process (TOR/RFP).
• Packaging and tendering consultancies.
• Environmental studies.
• traffic studies.
• Geotechnical studies.
• Land topographical surveying.

"Value" as defined is the ratio of function to cost, it can be increased or enhanced either by
improving the function or reducing the cost. Value engineering is a systematic method to
improve the value of a project by the examination of it's function to maximize value with no
quality compromising.
Cost avoidance provides far greater benefits than retrospective cost reduction, that
necessitate carrying out value engineering during the early stage of any project, preferably
before the completion of the scheme design..
Services Include:
Thorough research & working closely with the appointed design team to ensure that design
solutions are practical with viable alternatives to bring the return on the client's capital
investment this is the service that we aim to provide with perfection.

• Reviews proposed design thoroughly making cost construction scheme value.
• Form & Function analysis using a systematic & team approach.
• Review & assessment of individual elements to reveal any cost effective deficiency.
• Solution & design alternative identification.
• Cost reduction by alternative material or equipment substitution where applicable.

Comprehensive and objective estimates are the start of sound construction management and
cost control. Architects, owners, and contractors are aware of the need for well-prepared
estimates during each phase of a project.
EPM offers a complete range of construction estimating service including:-

• Budget, estimates.
• Preliminary (system) estimates.
• Detailed quantity surveys.

Budget estimates are prepared at the inception of the project in order to establish overall cost
parameters. During the design phase it may be necessary to prepare preliminary estimates to
evaluate design alternatives and insure the project is within previously established cost
parameters. After completion of the design phase, a detailed quantity survey is required as an
aid in evaluation of bids or negotiating contracts.
Each of these estimating phases is integrally with the overall financial success of any
construction project
