Value Engineering
Value engineering can take on different meanings, and often has a negative connotation within the construction industry. We strive to make changes that reduce costs while keeping the design intent of the building intact. Our primary role in the planning and design phase is to get involved early in order to identify the most cost-effective means of accomplishing the client’s objectives. Our extensive experience with a wide variety of building types and market segments enables us to bring forth new and innovative ideas that have a direct impact on the performance and cost of the building.
Project Management
Successful completion of construction projects requires the right people, the right approach and the right attitude. Our experienced construction team has a proven ability to navigate the broad range of regulatory, technical, financial and schedule challenges. We believe that establishing and maintaining high standards for technical quality, creative problem solving, professionalism and ethics are prerequisites for developing effective relationships with the entire construction team and key to realizing the financial and schedule goals of any project.
Our construction team is experienced with the implementation of project control systems ranging from simple document tracking to integrated systems that track project issues. We recognize that different projects have differing needs, and we pride ourselves on our ability to identify the right solution.
Design Build
The design-build process works closely with key subcontractors and consultants from conceptual design throughout completion of the construction drawings and specifications. Plans and specifications are reviewed in detail with the trades at key milestones to determine actual costs, identify LEED materials and develop a list of alternatives for the owner to consider. Continuous review of local construction costs by the design-build team assures a project design remains within budget and is completed on time.
