Cost Estimating
Develop estimates of the project cost at milestone stages in the drawing development to provide the Owner and Architect with the necessary information to “Design to Budget” without the cost of redesign.
Value Engineering
Research products and ideas, explore and price alternatives to save time and money on the project.
Constructability Reviews
Examine drawings for potential problems that could result in delays or change orders during construction and report these back to the team.
Scheduling
Develop a preconstruction schedule to help guide us through the timeline, from concept to start of construction, to aid in starting the project on time. During preconstruction, the final construction schedule is developed to ensure on-time completion.
Project Advertising & Bidder Solicitation
Inform local construction resources of the project to ensure maximized bidding participation.
Bidder Workshops
Explore and evaluate design alternatives before the drawings are completed.
Bid Packages
Provide very detailed and specific instructions to bidders about your customized project. Scopes of work are defined to eliminate wasteful overlaps or claims for change orders. Schedule durations and time commitments (such as material delivery) are confirmed by bid to minimize the project duration. Unit prices and hourly rates are competitively bid to ensure that future changes are priced fairly.
Building Permit
Workshops with the plans examiners are encouraged at the 70% level for feedback and construction documents are submitted during the subcontractor bidding period to expedite the receipt of permit and start of construction.
