Paperback. Are you personally carrying the weight of your construction project, or is a system carrying it with you? You got the email on a Thursday afternoon: effective Monday, you are the Project Manager on a high-stakes project. Standing in the site parking lot, you feel a mixture of excitement and dread. It is a feeling closer to being handed the keys to a car you have never driven, in a city you have never visited, with someone already in the passenger seat asking when you will arrive. By 9:40 AM on your first Monday, four different people have asked you four different questions, expecting immediate answers. The superintendent needs a call made to a short-handed subcontractor, the commercial manager drops an unanswered variation request on your desk, and the client is on the line demanding a firm delivery date. This is the start of the "reactive cycle"-the exhausting site trap where you spend your days firefighting whichever problem shouts the loudest, while the quiet, massive risks build unattended in unopened spreadsheets. In The Construction Project Manager's First 90 Days, seasoned industry veteran Daniel R. Whitmore delivers a direct, field-tested operating system designed to break this cycle once and for all. This is not a dry, academic textbook or another generic management guide telling you to be tougher or louder. It is a practical, step-by-step masterclass in taking real command of a project, establishing an honest baseline, and building the repeatable weekly routines that keep your project under control. Follow a Realistic, Site-Trailer Journey Unlike generic business books, this guide teaches through a highly relatable, narrative storyline. You will follow Alex Morgan, a newly promoted PM, as he takes over the Meridian Distribution Center-an 84,000-square-foot warehouse build facing tight deadlines. Alongside Alex, you will learn from veteran site superintendent Miguel Santos, commercial manager Rachel Kim, and senior PM Priya Shah as they navigate real site crises and transition from chaos to systematic control. A Proven 4-Phase Roadmap to Project Control The book is structured around the sequential phases you need to survive, stabilize, and dominate your first three months on-site: Phase 1: STABILIZE (Days 1-15) - Stop pure reaction. Run a rapid takeover audit and separate what's "loud" from what actually threatens time, cost, quality, and safety.Phase 2: BASELINE (Days 16-30) - Build an honest, verified starting position on schedule and commercial reality rather than relying on inherited assumptions.Phase 3: CONTROL (Days 30-60) - Install the site routines, commitment boards, and constraint registers that keep small issues from compounding into unrecoverable crises.Phase 4: LEAD (Days 60-90) - Transition from personally carrying the project to building a system where the team has the visibility, ownership, and follow-through to run the job without you.The Project Manager's Toolkit Included Each of the 15 chapters closes with a ready-to-use, one-page worksheet or template that you can put to work on your site starting Monday morning, including: First-Week Priority MapProject Takeover AuditFact-Assumption-Decision SheetSchedule Reality CheckCommercial Exposure SnapshotOne-Page Project Control DashboardAnd 9 other high-impact, field-ready tools.Stop firefighting. Start controlling. Build a project that runs successfully even when you aren't standing in the site trailer. This item is printed on demand.
