{ "item_title" : "Construction Risk Management Handbook - Volume 1", "item_author" : [" Balachander Subramanian "], "item_description" : "A comprehensive practitioner-focused handbook for construction and infrastructure professionals who need to identify, assess, prioritize, mitigate, monitor and control project risks across the complete construction lifecycle. Complete risk lifecycle-from strategic risk identification and qualitative analysis through mitigation, contingency, contracts, claims, project controls, construction execution, commissioning, and lessons learned.Risk management should be integrated with planning, cost, procurement, contracts, change, quality, HSE, stakeholder management and project controls rather than treated as a reporting exercise. Identify Risk Earlier. Make Better Decisions. Protect Project Outcomes. Why do construction projects with experienced teams, approved budgets, detailed schedules and sophisticated project controls still experience major cost overruns, delays, claims, productivity losses and performance problems?Because construction is delivered in an environment of uncertainty. Design development, procurement, labour, materials, equipment, contracts, authorities, stakeholders, logistics, technology, market conditions and complex interfaces continuously create new sources of exposure. The difference between reactive and proactive project management is often the ability to identify these risks early enough to influence the outcome. Construction Risk Management Handbook - Volume 1 presents a comprehensive technical and practical framework for managing construction risk across the project lifecycle. This is not simply a book about maintaining a risk register. It is about creating a management system in which risk information drives decisions, ownership, mitigation, contingency, project controls and executive action. The handbook takes the reader through the foundations of construction risk management and progressively develops the processes required to establish a structured, integrated and dynamic risk-management capability. It addresses risk governance, strategy, risk categories, risk identification, Risk Breakdown Structures, risk registers, workshops, early-warning indicators, qualitative assessment, probability and impact analysis, prioritization, response strategies, monitoring and control, while connecting these activities to cost, schedule, procurement, contracts, claims and project controls. The central philosophy is simple: Do not wait for risk to become an issue. Identify it, assess it, assign ownership, act early and continuously monitor the changing exposure. Whether you are managing a high-rise building, infrastructure program, highway, bridge, tunnel, airport, industrial facility, power project, data center, utility project or mega construction program, this handbook provides a structured foundation for improving project predictability and decision-making. Construction Risk Management Handbook - Volume 1 is designed to become a practical professional reference for anyone responsible for delivering complex construction and infrastructure projects. The manuscript's own framework strongly supports this positioning: it treats risk management as a continuous lifecycle, integrates it with project controls, distinguishes risks from issues, emphasizes ownership and early warnings, and ultimately aims to move organizations from reactive toward predictive risk management.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/819/141/9798191412832_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "39.99", "online_price" : "39.99", "our_price" : "39.99", "club_price" : "39.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
