CII’s endorsement of the CCM capped a multi-year effort in which a team of more than 20 professionals methodically compared CII’s 14 Construction Best Practices to the CM Standards of Practice, identified areas of difference and similarity, and plotted a strategy to harmonize the two resources. The goal: Ensure industry that a professional earning the CCM has mastered both the Best Practices and the CMSOP. “We are delighted with this affirmation of the value of the CCM,” said CMAA President and CEO Bruce D’Agostino. “It will both increase professionalism in our industry and expand recognition of our most accomplished professional practitioners.” CII’s Professional Development and Executive Committees urged its member companies to “seriously consider the benefits the CCM credential can bring to the execution of their individual capital projects.” Read the News Release Advisor Winter 2013 President and Chief Executive Officer Bruce D’Agostino, CAE, FCMAA CMAA IN 2013: 2 Chairman of the Board Milo Riverso, PhD, PE, CCM 3 Advisor Winter 2013 ABET, the pre-eminent accrediting authority for undergraduate technical education, seeks out the leading organizations in diverse disciplines to organize and lead accreditation programs in those fields. In 2013, ABET accepted CMAA as its 33rd member society. CMAA will lead a broad industry effort to define the content of a construction management education and accredit programs that meet those criteria. This is CMAA’s strongest response yet to a challenge that perennially tops the list of issues troubling the minds of industry leaders: Developing the professional talent of the future. CMAA has recruited a steering committee chaired by Milo Riverso, PhD, PE, CCM, president of STV Group, Inc. and chair of CMAA. We have designated Virginia Department of Transportation State Construction Engineer Mark Cacamis, PE, CCM, CMAA Vice Chair as our representative to the ABET Board of Directors. And we’ve targeted mid-2014 for the publication of our draft program-specific criteria, the steering committee’s vision of what an effective CM program should achieve and what organization and qualifications will support that goal. After a brief comment and ballot period, we anticipate accepting our first applications Milo Riverso added that “CMAA’s admission into ABET represents another formal recognition of the professionalism of construction management, as well as acknowledgement of CMAA as the leading organization defining and serving this profession.” Foundation To Fund ABET Activities As part of its mission to promote education for the CM profession, the CMAA Foundation voted in October to provide the needed financial support for CMAA’s administration of the ABET accreditation program. The Foundation’s action ABET Executive Director Milligan provides a practical vehicle speaking at National Conference for anyone who cares about the education of future CMs to step up and get involved.

Treatment: non-ACM The new study was carried out by McGraw-Hill Construction for the CMAA Foundation. It’s the first time a rigorous study has quantified the benefits owners realize from having a professional CM as their agent in executing a project. 68.8 percent of ACM projects were on or ahead of schedule, compared with 65.9 percent of the non-ACM projects. The study looked at 623 projects, including 266 in which an Agency CM was retained and 357 without an ACM. Owners taking part in the survey overwhelmingly said that leadership is a key benefit of professional CM: 82 percent of owners who used Agency CM gave their CMs top ratings for leading the project team. In addition: Water/Water Treatment: ACM Streets/Highways: non-ACM But owners also reported how often these schedule and budget outcomes were surprises to them. For example, among non-ACM users whose projects finished behind schedule, this outcome was “unexpected” to 58.7 percent. Even when a project finished ahead of schedule, it was a surprise to 59.5 percent of non-ACM owners.
