Reasons not to Engage an Architect to Manage your Project
1.0 Architect’s don’t possess the skill set required to manage your
project
The
architect is a very valuable member of the project design team.
The
prime responsibility of the architect is to convert your brief into a
functional and fully compliant design, which can be implemented by the builder
within the established budget.
However
as a general rule, the architect does not possess the specialized skills
required to provide the following range of project management services:
·
Prepare an
estimate of costs for the project
·
Prepare a
project schedule
·
Manage the
tendering process for the builder
·
Manage the
construction process
2.0
Architect’s have a conflict of interest
In
addition to these deficiencies, the architect has a conflict of interest whilst
managing themselves during the preparation of the design documentation.
3.0
Architect’s are not Interested in managing your project
As
a general rule, the architect’s passion lies with the preparation of design
documentation, and not the management of the procurement and construction
process.

What is the modern way?
Since
the Sydney Olympics in 2000, the independent project management industry has replaced the architect as the project manager of choice for
construction projects.
