    the client has accepted and authorised the construction to take place. There are many elements that need to be incorporated at this stage to facilitate a successful and in budget  construction. There are many models here that can utilised in managing the project. The idea of change is typified in Peters (1981) Model. Here there is a need fir  a dynamic system that is flexible and able to change. The role of the project manager is of paramount importance, and in this model we ma argue that there is  a very broad spectrum of duties for the project manager (Hughes, 2001). In this model the project manager has been involved at all stages from the idea. This may be  seen as a very complex model. The Capricode is a model that has been adopted as a compulsory model to be used in the construction of building in the  Health Service (DHSS, 1986). Here the actual construction is separated from the control and monitoring to give it independence Here there are four stages prior to commissioning taking place,  these are construction preparations, execution and control of works, Completion of works and then final account (DHSS, 1986). The model of Managing Construction Projects, by Austen and Neal (1984) emphasize  the need for good initial preparation to be made during the initial stages. In this model there are only two stages to the construction, production planning and site operations (Austen  and Neale, 1984). By comparison the British Property Federation has a process that is divided into five main stages from Idea to completion and as such may be seen  as one of the simplest models. (British Property Federation, 1983). This covers the same aspects as the former models, from a variant perspective. The key factor here is the high
