Construction Management

 
You may be asking yourself, what is construction management?   The Construction Management team's main responsibility is to ensure that all facets of pre-construction, construction and close-out phases of the project are handled efficiently, and to the owner's satisfactory level.  The Construction Manager sometimes acts as the 'temporary construction department.'  They are responsible for working in conjuncture with the Architects and Engineers in order to create a cost effective and efficient project, while making the Owner's vision a reality.   The Construction Manger uses their expertise of design, products, methods and systems best used on site to achieve the important overall satisfaction of the Owner.

There are four important services the construction manager is responsible for: Design Control, Cost Control, Quality Control and Time Control.

Design Control-- Working with the Owner's Architect/Engineer in development, design, and coordination of drawings to reduce the exposure for costly changes during construction.

Cost Control-- Emphasis on value engineering to provide maximum building value.

Quality Control-- Proper supervision and coordination of testing to assure quality throughout the project.

Time Control-- Reducing overall project time by utilitizing a "fast track" construction method.
