Introduction and Overview of the Course

Hello, and Welcome to Basics of Project Coordination for Architects!

Project coordination is a crucial aspect of the architectural and design process that involves managing and organizing various scopes, stakeholders, timelines, budgets, and resources to ensure the successful completion of a project. Architects and designers play a key role in coordinating all aspects of a project, from initial concept development to final execution. Effective project coordination helps to streamline communication, minimize errors, and ensure that the project stays on track.

They serve as the central point of contact between clients, contractors, engineers, and other stakeholders, and are responsible for keeping all parties informed and aligned throughout the project lifecycle.
