Abstract: This article explores strategies to optimize construction schedules for multifamily housing projects, focusing on key techniques such as phase overlap, phased occupancy, resource management, subcontractor coordination, and the Critical Path Method (CPM). By leveraging modern technologies like Building Information Modeling (BIM) and automated data acquisition systems, project managers can improve schedule accuracy, enhance coordination, and adapt to risks effectively. The article also emphasizes risk mitigation strategies and contingency planning to ensure project timelines remain resilient against disruptions like weather delays, labor shortages, and material procurement challenges. These insights aim to provide actionable guidelines for stakeholders to streamline construction processes, reduce costs, and deliver high-quality developments on time.
