The PM has the authority to take the required actions to achieve these objectives, and to ensure all project activities are consistent with contract documents and the company’s policies. The PM and PS work as a complementary team to plan and build the project. The PM's first responsibility is to support the effectiveness of the PS and the project staff. Generally, the PM will concentrate on long‑term planning, scheduling and the identification and resolution of possible “roadblocks” and “pitfalls” which could have an impact on the project.
