Construction Services

As a General Contractor, we oversee projects at the jobsite, coordinating with the subcontractors to ensure work progresses according to plan, maintaining a safe and clean environment, and focusing on details to deliver high-quality projects.

As a Construction Manager, we adopt a unique approach to deliver real value for clients. We take the time to understand the challenges of each project so that we can develop a strategic plan to exceed expectations. Our focus lies on providing solutions, offering cost savings, and serving as a liaison between contractors, the design team, and city officials. This approach makes the entire construction process far less stressful and more efficient. 

The Design-Build approach enables the owner to enter into a single contract with the General Contractor, covering both the design services and construction of the project. This streamlines collaboration, communication, and coordination, ultimately expediting the delivery of the project.

Schedules

- Our Construction Schedules include critical analysis of procurement of materials, timelines for the design team’s review and approval, along with critical lead times from different suppliers, and durations for each construction activity, all the way to completion of the project.

Cost Estimate / Budgets

- Generate a preliminary construction budget by subcontractor trades and update it at various stages of construction to reconcile committed costs and manage uncommitted values.

Drawing Review Comments

- Perform a drawing review across civil, architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing drawings to ensure coherence and coordination among the design team. This process facilitates a smooth construction workflow, minimizing downtime, and avoiding potential additional costs to the project.

Feasibility Study
