Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive review of project planning and elucidates its pivotal role in ensuring success in the complex landscape of civil engineering projects. From various perspectives, the emphasis is placed on the sequential progress of projects, precise planning, resource coordination, meticulous control, and the adoption of innovative planning methods as essential components. The consequences of neglecting these fundamental stages, with a focus on cost, time, and project quality factors, are examined. Consequently, the synthesis of these perspectives underscores the linchpin role of planning in construction projects. Sequential progress, coupled with strategic planning and precise control, emerges as a foundational principle. Decision-making based on data and the utilization of mature models enhance project management efficiency. Serving as a comprehensive guide, this article underscores the significance of planning stages as the axis of success in civil engineering projects. With a comprehensive approach, recognition of interdisciplinary nature, and laying the groundwork for informed and strategic decision-making in the dynamic landscape, the article supports the outlook of effective project management in civil engineering.
