7. Sustainability and Green Building Practices:

• Increasingly, there's a focus on incorporating sustainable and eco-friendly practices in commercial construction. This includes using energy-efficient materials, renewable energy sources, and designing for minimal environmental impact.

8. Safety and Quality Assurance:

• Safety inspectors and quality assurance professionals ensure that construction sites adhere to safety protocols and that the work meets high-quality standards.

9. Cost Estimation and Budgeting:

• The department is responsible for accurately estimating project costs and managing budgets to avoid cost overruns.

10. Post-Construction:

• After construction, the department may be involved in handing over the building to the client, addressing any post-construction issues, and providing maintenance guidelines.
