Pre-Construction
We’re here to ensure your project begins with the ultimate endgame in mind. Our pre-construction services cover every aspect of your project’s scope, from initial planning and budgeting to design and logistics. We work closely with you to establish a clear roadmap, ensuring that every detail aligns with your vision and goals, setting the foundation for a successful and seamless construction process.
Maximizing construction efficiencies and reduces risk
We provide the insight, expertise, and communication needed to ensure the project is well-defined and executable by all parties involved. Before construction begins, we collaborate with our clients to analyze, strategize, and assess the feasibility of the project. Involving a general contractor early in the process allows us to guide clients through the project with a focus on constructability, ensuring smooth execution and minimizing risks throughout.
Collaboration with Engineers
Our team works closely with engineers to identify key systems and infrastructural details, ensuring that we implement targeted actions to address specific needs and optimize overall project performance.
Defining project goals
While our primary focus is on reducing costs, Value Engineering (VE) provides a unique opportunity to harness the innovative thinking and creative problem-solving capabilities of our experts. The goal is to achieve value for money, not just to cut costs. Our depth of experience and lateral thinking enable us to explore alternative solutions that respect your design vision. These solutions may not only be cost-neutral but can also result in long-term savings through lower operational costs or reduced construction time. Through rapid cost analysis, we model and evaluate various design options to ensure the best outcomes for your project.
Identifying potential issues
During the pre-construction phase, we proactively identify potential challenges that may arise during the project. Features such as parking can sometimes be difficult to integrate into the design, while issues like flooding or erosion may need to be addressed. Additionally, we prepare for any procurement delays related to special materials or equipment. By anticipating these concerns early, we can develop solutions to address them before construction begins, ensuring a smoother project execution.
Pre-Construction surveys
A pre-construction survey is a thorough examination of the existing condition of the property and its surroundings, including adjacent buildings, sidewalks, landscaping, and more. This survey is conducted before any construction begins to help contractors and architects identify potential issues early. It helps determine if any existing damage has occurred or if there are underlying problems like drainage or foundation issues. Smaller site challenges, such as uneven grading, are also assessed at this stage, ensuring that no surprises arise during the construction process or after project completion.
