Construction Management offers an Owner a professional approach to administering a capital improvements project. The scope encompasses either work in a single facility or can include programs in several facilities over a period of several years. Actual construction work can be bid to separate prime contractors or in some cases to a general contractor.

Construction Management allows an Owner single project accredibility by allowing the Construction Manager to act as the Owner’s agent throughout the design and construction phases. For an Owner who does not have the expertise or the staff necessary to undertake building projects, the Construction Manager provides the owner with a professional team experienced in managing design and construction, meeting schedules, seeking budget goals and maintaining a quality of construction. Most Owners are not aware of the necessary required time to devote to the multitude of day-to-day details associated with getting any project built. Controlling time, cost and quality is the focus of construction mangement.

Construction often is a complex process involving serious decisions regarding design, budget and schedules. Although the responsibility of managing construction risk eventually lies with the Owner, the employment of a professional Construction Management firm can greatly mitigate the risk through careful selection of the team members who in turn, use their respective skills in designing, planning and managing risk control.
