Medium Size Projects:

•General Management

We provide full service general contraction services includeding estimating, bidding, contracting with owners, suppliers and subcontractors, running project meetings, construction and administrative coordination with all parties, field supervision, construction and vendor scheduling, interface with permitting entities, project closeouts.

• Design-Build

This is a project delivery method where the architect and contractor wear the same hat and develop the project together. This entity works with an owner to achieve all project goals in the most time efficient and cost effective manner possible. The traditional approach is design-bid-build. A project is designed and bid by a contractor and if there are project cost overruns, the design is revised and the project is re-bid.

• Pre-Construction

Projects run smoother and are better planned when we are brought in at the beginning of the design phase. We can assist in the following ways: spot demolition for accurate design research, construction phasing, schedule impacts, cost budgeting, construction methodology, sequencing, constructability and up front value engineering.

• Building Analysis

We can put a team of experts together to assess the quality of a building. This team can also determine a budget cost of repairs. Analysis not limited to the engineering systems in a building; it might also include ADA accessibility, structural systems and energy efficiency studies.

• Construction Management

Every construction project we do includes construction management. If you already have an architect and contractor but know you need an entity to represent your interests in the construction process, we provide all appropriate construction documents and construction methodology to construct projects appropriately.

• Scheduling

We provide construction scheduling, phasing and sequencing. Our schedules identify all parts of the construction process including: long lead items, activity durations, start and finish dates for tasks and short and long project durations.

• Valve Engineering

Often, when a project is over budget, we can evaluate the individual parts and recommend different approaches to achieve similar goals at a reduced cost.
