Article Abstract:

It is essential to retain control over decision making processes on a construction project because liability ultimately rests with the project management. Responsible decision making should be encouraged in the work force as long as those decisions are not taken lightly and quickly. Simple decisions can help reduce working time but may end up costing a lot of money if repercussions are felt throughout the rest of the construction site.
