Managing Design and Construction
A Resource for Owners

Steph Slater has been managing construction projects on owners' behalf for over three decades. In Managing Design and Construction, he shows owners how to take a major construction project from concept through occupancy. And he clarifies the owner's responsibility at every stage.

Steph specializes in working with owners responsible for projects up to $50 million in scale, particularly for organizations that do not have staff dedicated to construction management. Here you'll learn what an owner's representative is and what one can do to protect you from the delays and cost overruns that can sink any large project.

Whether you are on a building committee for your local school or country club or are thinking about managing your own residential design and construction project, this book is the resource you need.
