      abstract = {This study investigates the development of a new system to combine cost management with technical monitoring for improving efficiency and budget adherence, as well as quality in large industrial construction projects. The vast range of these complex projects faces multiple management breakdowns creating frequent cost and technical issues involving project elements. This research design made use of quantitative project data analysis from multiple case studies combined with qualitative interviews of industrial professionals. This research method produces patterns while revealing important elements affecting the combined supervision of costs and technical project aspects by two parties. Financial planners who join technical supervisors for early collaboration and share digital project management tools succeed in creating better cost control, together with technical quality assurance. Security and efficiency in joint operations depend on standardized communication systems together with immediate information exchange and planned risks assessment methods. The research establishes that combining cost management with technological oversight operates at once as a possibility while serving essential needs for implementing major industrial undertakings. The research defines various methods to enhance implementation efforts while also providing methods for decision-making and resource management and stakeholder alignment.},
