What we do - Provided Services for Bockstael Construction

Pre-Construction Services

The pre-construction phase of a project is critical.

In fact, over 80% of the lifecycle costs of a building can be committed at the end of schematic design. Working closely with the design team and the Owner, we are able to assist in value preservation, value creation and optimization.

Construction

We successfully deliver projects as a Construction Manager, General Contractor and Design Builder.

Regardless of the type of contract, we bring to each project a set of innovative leading edge processes and tools. We continue to travel down the path of our LEAN journey, augmented by the use of technology and underpinned by project management best practices. Throughout our history, we have maintained a workforce capable of self-performing reinforced concrete works as well as carpentry. Our ability to self-perform these critical scopes of work is a significant contributor to schedule certainty.

Advisory and Planning

We are pleased to offer our clients Advisory and Planning Services.

Over the past few years we have intentionally hired key team members with the skills and competencies necessary to help 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. We can assist clients in making informed decisions when considering the purchase of a building by conducting fit-for-use assessments. We are able to recommend the optimal form of contract by examining the project drivers, and understanding the degree of risk transfer as well as 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. In order to maximize the return on the 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.
