Project Management Consultant (PMC)
A third-party firm hired by the client to run tendering, supervise the contractor, audit bills and track the project.
What is Project Management Consultant (PMC)?
A Project Management Consultant (PMC) is a firm the client hires to act on its behalf on a construction project. Instead of the client employing engineers directly, the PMC runs the tendering, supervises the main contractor's daily work for quality, audits the contractor's RA bills and works to finish the project on schedule and within budget.
Practical example
A hospital trust wants to build a 500-bed facility. The trustees are doctors with no engineering staff, so they hire a PMC for a 3% fee. The PMC drafts the tender, selects the EPC contractor, stations quality control engineers on site daily and signs off the contractor's ₹10,00,00,000 monthly billing before the trust pays.
In SuperWise
