Effective project management helps in achieving the aim of the project. Numerous issues are being confronted by the construction business, major of them are cost and time overrun. In the present practice for construction there is less awareness about software which helps in smooth management of construction as compared to conventional way of handling the project. To reduce the complexity of construction project various tools like Primavera P6, M.S project are effective project software tools used for proper planning, scheduling and detailed cost estimation of various activities, resources involved in the project. In this present study we have planned and schedule G+20 residential building and allocated the needed resources and after that we got the estimated cost of the construction. We have also tracked the progress of the project at various intervals of time.
