Abstract

This paper explores the application of modern project management techniques in civil engineering and their impact on enhancing cost-effectiveness. Through a literature review and case studies, the research summarizes the critical roles of technologies such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), value engineering, risk management, agile project management, contract strategies, and Total Quality Management (TQM) in improving design efficiency, reducing material waste, optimizing cost control, rapidly responding to changes, effectively managing costs, and lowering rework and maintenance expenses. Specific cases, including the Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge, New York City Subway Expansion, and Beijing Daxing International Airport, demonstrate the successful implementation of these technologies in real-world projects. The findings indicate that these technologies not only significantly enhance the economic benefits of projects but also provide valuable experience and best practices for the sustainable development of the entire industry.
