Written by Tulsi Regmi, PhD, PQS and Bill Nichols, MSc, PQS(F), PLE, GSC, FCIOB, this book is based on their years of experience in the construction industry and construction management education. This book walks the learner through the construction project development process in a practical, easy-to-understand format, starting with the economics of construction project development, project financing, and end ending with the practice of project loan monitoring, with a specific emphasis on application of analytical tools and techniques.

This 900-page book is divided into three main parts:
Part I covers topics related to the application of applied economics to the development of projects.
Part II deals with the financing of project development.
Part III provides a comprehensive coverage of the practice of project loan monitoring taught through numerous case studies.

While this book can serve as an invaluable resource for construction professionals, it is structured primarily as a teaching resource for construction programs in colleges and universities.
