Pre-Construction Services

Pre-Construction Services are critical to maximizing the value of your project.

We understand that over 80% of a building’s life-cycle costs can be committed by the end of schematic design. Working collaboratively with the design team and client, our construction management professionals provide value preservation, value creation, construction innovation, and project optimization.

Advisory and Planning

Our Construction Professionals are pleased to offer our clients Advisory and Planning Services.

We have intentionally hired key professionals with the skills, competencies, and integrity necessary to guide our clients during the critical feasibility stages of a project. Through our facility planning services, we can work with clients to ‘right-size’ their building projects. We can assist in making informed decisions when considering the purchase of a building by performing fit-for-use assessments. We are also able to recommend the optimal form of a contract by examining project drivers, understanding the degree of risk transfer and the desired degree of owner control.

Transition & Operational Readiness

Buildings are built to fulfill a purpose.

Transition and Operational Readiness services help our clients reduce the time it takes to become fully functional. Furthermore, it is no secret that buildings are increasing in complexity. To maximize the return on capital investment, it is imperative that buildings operate as intended, not only at turnover but throughout the life of the asset. Asset management plans are a critical input to sustainable building performance.
