    Jason, what do you recommend if our company does not use takt planning. They use MS project I am 26 yrs old and was given the opportunity to manage a 70 million dollar project with 380 units, 2 pools, 4 elevators & 8 story garage. Currently 1 super and 2 assistants.

    I would run the project with Takt and export the schedule to whatever format they want. If it is your ass on the line it is your decision.

    what is the difference between a superintendent and a construction manager? also is a construction manager the same thing as a project manager?

    It depends on where you are in the world. A super is in control of the field and manages the day to day. A project manager supplies the project with resources and leads the project from start to finish.
