Project management is the research and practice of a project's design, execution, control, & closure to ensure that the project's aims and goals are attained. The traditional construction approach often proves inefficient, time-consuming, and error-prone, leading to complexities in execution. This research advocates for the adoption of Microsoft Project as a modern Project Management tool to surmount challenges posed by conventional planning and management methods. This software optimally organizes project activities, offering a clear path to project completion within the defined timeframe and budget. The study demonstrates the application of Microsoft Project in the context of construction management, encompassing planning, scheduling, resource allocation, tracking, & more. The research also emphasizes efficient resource utilization and waste reduction during construction projects. By comparing software-generated results with on-site outcomes, the study establishes the effectiveness of the proposed method. Notably, the study showcases Microsoft Project's influence on cost savings through meticulous planning, scheduling, resource allocation, and tracking. The goal of current research is to use the Microsoft project in effective planning & implementation of construction projects. The project implementation plan, cost overview, resource allocation are presented for G+10 story building. The maximum cost is incurred by the TM mixer machine, i.e., ₹ 14,050,000, and minimum cost is incurred by concrete mixer machine. The actual cost of work performed is Rs 27,162,425, whereas the actual cost is Rs 56202804.59. Using the MSP, the cost savings of Rs29,040,379.59 is achieved due to proper planning, scheduling, resource allocations, levelling, tracking, etc. From the MSP data, it can be concluded that the maximum work hours required for male labour force, i.e., 70000hrs.
