Preconstruction & Feasibility
Define the project brief, review available information, and discuss site conditions, conceptual budgets, design needs, and the decisions required before construction.
Estimating & Value Engineering
Compare scope, quantities, material options, and assumptions to help align the design and budget. Discuss initial cost, maintenance, and lifecycle considerations where relevant.
Design-Build Coordination
Discuss a coordinated design-and-construction approach with the appropriate licensed design professionals, including conceptual planning, completed drawings, and defined responsibilities.
General Contracting
Organize construction around the agreed scope and approved documents, coordinating trades, materials, site activities, and the progression toward inspections and handover.
Construction Management
Discuss the level of construction oversight, procurement coordination, cost reporting, schedule review, and owner communication appropriate to the project's delivery structure.
Permitting & Approvals Coordination
Identify the required submission responsibilities, landlord or association approvals, and inspection milestones with the project team. Requirements depend on the jurisdiction and project scope.
Scheduling & Procurement
Connect design decisions, trade sequencing, material ordering, long-lead items, and site access in a project schedule with clear dependencies and milestones.
Quality & Document Coordination
Coordinate project documents, material requirements, field reviews, and punch-list items. Discuss the inspection and quality-control measures appropriate to the specified work.
BIM & Virtual Design Coordination
For projects that require it, discuss specialist BIM/VDC support, document coordination, MEP clash review, three-dimensional coordination, and model-informed quantity takeoffs with the design team.
Occupied-Site & Phased Construction
Plan work zones, access, temporary protection, communication, and scheduled interruptions around the needs of residents, guests, staff, customers, or existing facility operations.
Safety & Site Logistics
Address site access, separation, deliveries, housekeeping, and trade coordination in the construction plan, with requirements suited to the work and the surrounding property.
Sustainable Construction Coordination
Discuss resource-conscious materials, waste planning, building-system options, and lifecycle considerations. Where certification is a goal, coordinate LEED or other requirements with qualified specialists.
Closeout & Post-Construction
Coordinate completion reviews, punch lists, applicable handover documents, maintenance information, systems training, commissioning support, and warranty follow-up according to the project agreement.
Renovations, Restorations & Conversions
Review existing-building conditions, repair needs, full-gut rehabilitation, and change-of-use opportunities before selecting a scope, design approach, or construction sequence.
