The General Contracting Process

Our success as a general contractor lies in our systematic and transparent process, designed to manage complexities and deliver predictable outcomes for our commercial clients.

1. Initial Project Assessment: We begin by thoroughly reviewing project plans, specifications, and site conditions. This phase involves understanding your specific goals, functional requirements, and performance expectations for the new build or renovation.
2. Detailed Estimating and Planning: Leveraging industry-best estimating and project management software, we develop a precise cost estimate and a comprehensive project schedule. This detailed planning minimizes surprises and provides a clear roadmap for the construction phase.
3. Contracting and Pre-Construction: Once the contract is established, we finalize subcontractor agreements, procure necessary materials, and manage the initial pre-construction activities, including site preparation and utility coordination.
4. Construction Execution: This is where the plan comes to life. Our site supervisors oversee all on-site activities, coordinating subcontractors, managing deliveries, and ensuring work proceeds according to the schedule and quality plan. Regular inspections and site meetings are conducted.
5. Project Monitoring and Reporting: We use advanced project management tools to track progress against the schedule and budget in real-time. Regular reports are provided to keep you fully informed of the project status, allowing for informed decision-making.
6. Quality and Safety Oversight: Throughout construction, we maintain a constant focus on quality assurance and safety. Our team enforces strict protocols, conducting frequent checks and addressing any issues promptly to ensure the highest standards are met.
7. Project Completion and Handover: As construction nears completion, we conduct final inspections, manage punch lists, and coordinate final certifications. The project is then formally handed over to you, complete and ready for occupancy or operation.

This structured process, combined with our hands-on management style and commitment to open communication, ensures a controlled and successful project delivery.

Leveraging Technology for Efficiency

In today's construction landscape, technology plays a vital role in managing complex projects efficiently and transparently. We utilize industry-best estimating and project management software that provides numerous benefits for both our team and our clients. This software allows for highly accurate cost estimating, reducing the likelihood of unforeseen budget overruns. It provides sophisticated scheduling capabilities, enabling precise coordination of trades and materials to keep the project on track.

Furthermore, our project management software serves as a centralized hub for communication and documentation. This means streamlined information flow, efficient handling of requests for information (RFIs) and change orders, and real-time access to project data. This level of technological integration enhances transparency, improves collaboration among all project stakeholders, and contributes significantly to delivering projects on time and within budget while maintaining rigorous quality standards.

• Building Type and Function: Different commercial properties (e.g., office buildings, retail spaces, industrial facilities) have distinct requirements, impacting design, materials, and specialized systems.
• Material Selections: The type and quality of materials specified will directly affect the budget.
• Site Conditions: Existing site conditions, including necessary groundwork, utility connections, or demolition, play a role in overall costs.
