Preconstruction Services
Because the greatest ability to ensure a project's success is at the earliest stages, we focus a great deal of time and effort during the preconstruction phase on conceptual estimating. Our experienced estimating staff understands the different approaches required for conceptual project costing and estimating the project at the construction documents stage. Our conceptual estimators predict the probable cost of a project before it has been fully designed and documented. These early estimates are what guide a project from concept to completion without cost overruns. Working with our estimators, the project managers provide constructability reviews in order to ensure workable details and maintenance-friendly buildings. Throughout the preconstruction phase, our project managers offer material analysis with regard to initial cost versus life-cycle cost and a schedule for how the project with progress.
