The advantages of some of today's alternative project delivery systems (Construction Management and Design Build) truly manifest themselves in the offering of Pre-Construction review and service.

The concept of bringing the "builder/constructor" in the process through the programming and design development phases of a project holds many advantages, the three major areas being:

1. Constructability - Working with the design professional to ensure detailing and component decisions offers the Owner the best value and economical construction methodology.
2. Scheduling - Our business requires we have dialogue with material vendors and subcontractors every day. We know lead times and pricing issues today that avoid surprises tomorrow. As the managing entity of the project, it is our responsibility to create and live the schedule to meet the Owner's requirements. Early input ensures no surprises and early buy-in by all project stakeholders.
3. Pricing - Early, accurate and ongoing pricing of the project eliminates bid day surprises of an over-budget project. Pre-Construction involvement reduces the costly reality of re-designing a project that has exceeded budget parameters.
