Fallas comunes del control presupuestal proyectos de construcción - Microempresas.

Abstract

Cost control in construction projects is essential to carry out a specific and detailed inspection of the investment, avoiding possible cost overruns, money deviations or failures that can generate a significant impact on the real cost of the project and work schedule initially. established.

The implementation of cost control using good practice strategies in financial construction management can eliminate unnecessary expenses and in some cases increase the builder's profit.

When cost control is not carried out from its initial stage, the success and profitability of the project are vulnerable, the probability of solving the problems or unforeseen events presented is limited without causing negative impacts to the budget and on the other hand it eliminates the use of lifesaving maneuvers (Sánchez-Bedoya, 2023).

The use of technological tools allows for more adequate and efficient cost control, allows the critical points of the project to be periodically identified, and provides time to evaluate what the alternative solutions to unforeseen events may be (Salazar, 2011).

The correct exercise of cost control allows us to obtain as a result an identification of factors such as, for example; errors in costing, changes that occur in the project designs during its execution process, failure to hire people who do not have the experience to carry out the activities, delays in the times established by the programming of work either due to factors with the client or with direct management on site.
