In recent years, with the rapid development of China’s social economy, significant advances have also been made in the field of construction engineering. At the same time, with the advancement of urbanization and the increase in the demand for the construction of various infrastructure and service facilities, the number of construction projects has continued to increase. In project construction, project cost control plays a vital role. Implementing effective cost control measures at all stages of the project is an important task to ensure the company's economic benefits. Hereon, this article focuses on the importance of project cost, the factors that affect the cost control, and the related measures to reasonably control the cost at various stages of the project. It is hoped that this will have a certain reference value and will contribute to the improvement of project cost management and control.
