- Project management and supervision—A dedicated project manager will work with you throughout the project to ensure that all your design and construction needs are met. He/she will work with the architect, local building authorities and subcontractors to ensure the quality, and craftsmanship and that on-schedule and budget delivery are achieved.
- Site evaluation and analysis—Our team will work with you to select the right location for your new home, or review your expansion plans, and provide you with a best value recommendation taking into account: site logistics, energy efficiency, design flow, local taxes, zoning and much more.
- Design assist and constructability review—Together with the architect we will review the initial design and construction plans, providing guidance on constructability, logistics and safety. We will begin working with the tradesmen to develop budgets.
- Sustainability advisement and implementation—Eco-friendly materials and systems can be incorporated into the construction. We will prepare a cost/resource-analysis of the alternates and review it with you.
- Budgets and estimates from conceptual to contractual documentation—After our initial discussions of your project, our team work with you to define your budget. As the details of your project unfold we will develop a baseline estimate. Moving forward, as decisions are made, materials selected and work begins, we will update the estimate and work with you to make decisions within the confines of your budget.
- Schedule development and management—An initial schedule will be developed incorporating the architect’s time, zoning and permitting approvals, custom orders and material deliveries, etc. This will be reviewed with you and updated regularly.
- Value management—Together with the architect we will review the design and construction plans, providing recommendations and alternate solutions to deliver the project more efficiently for the best value.
- Construction sequencing and logistics planning—Each element of the construction must be precisely planned and sequenced to ensure quality work. Our team will work with the tradesmen to establish the sequence of work and ensure the site is ready each of them when required.
- Permitting and township approval—We will work with the local authorities to get your construction plans approved and keep them updated on changes to the project as it progresses. This will help expedite the final inspections required and foster a good relationship with the town.
- Material and equipment procurement—During the design phase we will review the drawings and order any custom materials or finishes to ensure they are onsite when they need to be installed.
- Quality assurance and control—Our project manager, and you, will review the work of the tradesman regularly. Any work not performed to our satisfaction will be redone, until we are all satisfied.
- Safety—The responsibility of all people on the site, our team will keep you and your family, your neighbors and the tradesman safe with zero injuries or accidents.
- Testing and commissioning—After each piece of equipment is installed, our team will test it to ensure that is it working properly.
