To accomplish this, he or she must conceptualize a plan on how he or she is going to construct the project and must ensure that the daily and weekly activities are consistent with this plan under direction of the Project Superintendent.

The experience and capabilities of the Project Manager will directly influence the delegation of authority and responsibility by the Project Superintendent.
