As project manager, you are the Agency’s senior decision maker on the project and should be delegated that commensurate decision making authority. Where the Agency’s governance policy requires actions to be approved by the Agency’s board, the PMP and Agency administrative procedures should not unduly delay the construction schedule. Similarly, your project procedures should delegate authority to the CM staff for activities contracted out to the CM. You should base the division of duties between the Agency and CM on who is best suited to the function. Typically the Agency deals with project’s stakeholders and the CM with the technical matters concerning contractor work.
