Efficiently managing projects within a strata building requires a multifaceted approach, so a competent building manager is a valuable resource. Building managers play a vital role in both assisting and driving project management such as in the following ways.

Communication and Coordination

Building managers can act as a bridge between residents, a strata committee and external contractors. They can aid in streamlining communication, effectively coordinating schedules, addressing concerns and communicating updates.

Project Planning 

Building managers have in-depth knowledge of each property including its facilities and maintenance records. This information is valuable when creating a project plan, as well as in helping to outline project goals, budgets and timelines. 

Contractor Management

Building managers have a professional database of key contacts which help to ensure reliable, high quality and qualified services. They can also help in negotiating contracts and ensuring that work is carried out efficiently.

Budget

Building managers can help develop budgets, monitor spending and ensure that the building project remains within the established budget. 

Resident Satisfaction

By keeping residents informed about upcoming projects and addressing their concerns, building managers can help foster a harmonious relationship with residents, which is essential for the success of a building project. 

It is clear that building managers play a vital role in assisting and driving project management such as in communication, project planning, contractor management, budgeting and ensuring resident satisfaction.
