During the design phase, the CM should perform which of the following tasks?

In theCMAA Project Managementchapter, during theDesign Phase, the CM’s duties focus on evaluatingdesign progress, cost control, and schedule integration.

The CMAA SOP specifies:

“During the design phase, the Construction Manager should review design submissions for compliance with budget, schedule, and program requirements; participate in cost estimating and design coordination meetings; and support permitting and regulatory agency coordination.”

OptionBcorrectly reflects these core design-phase responsibilities: reviewing cost estimates, schematic design development, and attending scheduling or coordination conferences with agencies.

The other options refer to administrative, construction-phase, or post-construction tasks, not design-phase CM functions.
