Abstract

Project cost control is a hot issue in construction enterprise management and a key factor to determine the return on project investment. With the continuous summary of modern project management experience, systematic, comprehensive and dynamic management methods and ideas gradually began to be adopted. As a controllable system, cost system is the key to determine the market competitiveness of construction enterprises. This paper combines qualitative research with quantitative research, normative research with empirical research, theoretical research with practical research, and makes comprehensive use of previous research results to provide guidance for the practical operation of cost control in construction enterprises. Firstly, it introduces the important factors affecting the cost and the background and purpose of the project cost control, and then analyzes the object and content of the project cost control and analysis. Finally, the phenomenon of "three super" and the deviation of the project cost are analyzedd and discussed. It is of great practical significance to study project cost control for promoting the reform of investment system and improving market competitiveness of construction enterprises.
