Preconstruction

Success Begins Here

Every project starts in Preconstruction and early collaboration is the key to success. We utilize relationships built through years of experience to provide detailed estimates and precise value-engineering to develop a plan that addresses schedule, budget and potential rocks in the road – all before we even break ground.  

Our preferred methods of project delivery – Design/Build and Construction Management at Risk (CM@R) – allow early introduction of the project team. This provides continuity, communication, and clear expectations throughout project execution, with our main focus on providing a seamless experience for clients from beginning to end.

Target Value Delivery

We are driven by our client’s unique needs and understand that having the right information is crucial to making the best decisions. In response, we developed a propriety Target Value Delivery project approach that recognizes that direct and immediate correlation between design and cost. What does this mean for your project?

  1. TARGET: We improve the timetable from inception to completion by streamlining accountability and fast-tracking processes.   
  2. VALUE: By identifying what our clients value the most, we achieve clarity around significant project components.   
  3. DELIVERY: By establishing a vision of clear success and the required milestones along the way, we set early expectations around a shared, desired outcome.
