During a discussion on the Indian construction industry in a forum of construction industry stalwarts, it was observed that sometimes first-time project owners try to cut corners over necessities in a project. I have observed that this is not conducive for the project. Infact, this sometimes can lead to cost overruns ultimately.
How can this be explained to a first-time project owner? In this seemingly easy business where there is no restriction barrier for a new entrant, this is difficult to explain. So, what is the solution – a value consultant?
