CMAA Certified Construction Manager (CCM) Sample Questions (Q22-Q27):NEW QUESTION # 22
An inexperienced client on a design-bid-build project states that they do not want the designer to assist in the review of submittals, respond to Requests for Information (RFIs). or conduct any site inspections during the construction phase. How should the CM respond to the client's request?
  • A. Review the Project Procedures Manual (PPM) and then discuss with the client why their approach may add more risk to the project.
  • B. Agree with the client that this will save the project from unnecessary costs and report that the design documents should be error-free.
  • C. Ignore the client and continue coordinating with the design professional to provide these necessary services as part of their contract.
  • D. Review the Project Management Plan (PMP) and proceed accordingly.
Answer: A
Explanation:
CMAA's Standards of Practice assert the importance of properly defining roles, responsibilities, and risk allocations in the early planning phases (in the Project Procedures Manual and/or Project Management Plan).
The CM's role includes advising the owner of risks associated with the chosen approach. The CM should use the PPM (or the procedures already established) to inform the owner that omitting design professional services during construction (submittals review, RFI responses, inspections) increases the owner's exposure to errors, claims, and omissions.
Choosing option A means referring back to the formal procedures already agreed upon, educating the client about added risks, and working collaboratively to preserve necessary design-phase involvement. Option B would be insubordinate to the client's direction, C is naively optimistic (design documents are rarely perfect), and D is too passive-it doesn't confront the risk issue effectively.
Thus, reviewing the PPM and discussing the risks with the client is the proper CM response.

NEW QUESTION # 23
One word or phrase to describe the process of transitioning from construction to permanent operations by the owner is
  • A. O&M.
  • B. turnover.
  • C. beneficial occupancy.
  • D. move-in.
Answer: B
Explanation:
According to theCMAA Construction Management Standards of Practice (SOP), underChapter 2 - Project Management, the process of shifting a project from the construction phase to full operational use by the owner is referred to as"Turnover." The CMAA definesturnoveras:
"The formal process of transitioning a completed facility or project from the construction phase to the owner's operations and maintenance organization. This process ensures that all systems, documentation, warranties, and training have been completed and accepted in accordance with contract requirements." This stage signifies theend of construction management responsibilitiesand thebeginning of the owner's operational phase. The Construction Manager's role during turnover includes verifying that:
All contractual deliverables and closeout documents are completed.
Operations and maintenance manuals are submitted.
Training for facility staff has been conducted.
The owner has formally accepted the project for occupancy and use.
While terms such as "O&M" (operations and maintenance), "move-in," and "beneficial occupancy" are related concepts, they describe specific activities or conditions within the broader turnover process. The CMAA recognizes"turnover"as the overarching term describing the transition from construction completion to owner operations.

NEW QUESTION # 24
Industry best practice is to conduct a pre-bid conference. The intent of the pre-bid conference is to
  • A. survey existing conditions and reveal unforeseen conditions.
  • B. limit the number of bidders on the project.
  • C. mitigate change orders and delays.
  • D. resolve any questions about contract requirements and scope of work.
Answer: D
Explanation:
TheCMAA Construction Management Standards of Practice (SOP)identifies thepre-bid (pre-proposal) conferenceas a key element of the procurement process. Its purpose is to clarify thescope of work, contract requirements, and bid instructionsbefore bids are submitted.
CMAA states:
"A pre-bid conference provides prospective bidders with an opportunity to review the contract requirements, clarify ambiguities, and receive consistent responses to questions regarding scope, schedule, and procedures." By ensuring that all bidders receive the same information, the CM helps promote fair competition, minimize post-award claims, and reduce misunderstandings about scope-thereby indirectly helping to mitigate change orders and delays. However, theprimary intentis toresolve any questions about contract requirements and scope of work.
Option B describes a benefit, but not the immediate intent; Option A concerns site investigation, which is typically handled in separate pre-bid site visits; Option C is contrary to public procurement policy.
Therefore, the correct answer isD.

NEW QUESTION # 25
During the design phase of a project, the owner had requested the design team develop mitigating strategies due to expected budget concerns. During the procurement process, the agency CM should advise the owner consider
  • A. incorporating Time and Material Alternates into the bid documents.
  • B. evaluating Phase Alternates in the bid documents.
  • C. evaluating Schedule Alternates in the bid documents.
  • D. incorporating Add/Deduct Alternates into the bid documents.
Answer: D
Explanation:
TheCMAA Standards of Practice (Chapter 3 - Cost Management)identifiesAdd/Deduct Alternatesas a common strategy to manage potential budget fluctuations. The SOP explains:
"Alternates, both additive and deductive, provide flexibility to adjust project scope to available funding at the time of bid or negotiation." This allows the owner to maintain control over project cost while preserving key design intent.Time and material alternatesare not typical bid mechanisms, andphaseorschedule alternatesdo not directly address budget mitigation.

CMAA Construction Management Standards of Practice, 2010 Edition, Chapter 3 - Cost Management, Section "Design Phase Cost Control and Alternates." CMAA CM Study Guide, Cost Management Domain, Objective 3.2: "Develop cost management strategies including alternates, allowances, and contingencies."

NEW QUESTION # 26
A CM team on a new project which is in the pre-design phase is planning their climate resiliency strategy.
Which of the following is the team's BEST first step in this process?
  • A. Establish QA/QC specifications.
  • B. Establish a third-party certification.
  • C. Hire a commissioning agent.
  • D. Collect relevant data and reports.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:
According to theCMAA Construction Management Standards of Practice (SOP)underChapter 8 - Sustainability and Environmental Stewardship, early-phase sustainability and resiliency planning must begin withdata collection and assessment. This step establishes the factual foundation for subsequent decision-making on design strategies, risk mitigation, and performance goals.
The CMAA states:
"During the planning and pre-design phases, the CM should assist the owner and design team by collecting and reviewing available data and reports on climate conditions, environmental risks, and site-specific factors.
These data inform the development of sustainable goals and resiliency measures integrated into the project scope." This initial effort typically includes gathering information such as:
* Local climate projections and floodplain data.
* Historical weather events and environmental impact studies.
* Site topography, soil, and hydrology reports.
* Utility availability, energy use profiles, and applicable regulatory requirements.
Only after a comprehensive understanding of environmental and site conditions has been established can the team properly evaluate certification pathways (e.g., LEED, Envision), develop quality specifications, or engage specialized consultants such as commissioning agents.
Therefore, thebest first stepfor the CM team during thepre-design phaseis tocollect relevant data and reportsthat will serve as the basis for all subsequent climate resiliency and sustainability strategies.

* CMAA Construction Management Standards of Practice, 2010 Edition,Chapter 8 - Sustainability and Environmental Stewardship, Section: "Early Project Phase Activities," pp. 78-80.
* CMAA CM Study Guide,Sustainability and Environmental Stewardship Domain, Objective 8.1:
"Support the collection and assessment of environmental data in the planning and pre-design phases to inform resiliency and sustainability strategies."
