FAQ

A Geometra is a professional specializing in technical aspects of construction, including surveying, design, estimation, and project documentation. They often work on land surveys, basic architectural design, and ensure projects comply with local regulations.
Project Manager:
A Project Manager oversees all aspects of a project, from planning and coordination to execution and completion. They manage teams, budgets, schedules, ensure quality, and safeguard client interests. Project Managers also facilitate communication among stakeholders.
