Project Management

Our Services

The construction process requires knowledge and understanding of regulations and standards. Our complete project management services include feasibility, permitting, construction and commissioning. 

Discovery & Feasibility

The discovery and feasibility phase of a construction project is a critical initial step that sets the foundation for a successful project. During this phase, the project stakeholders, which may include the client, architects, engineers, and project managers, work collaboratively to define the project’s objectives, constraints, and potential challenges. 

The discovery phase typically involves conducting extensive research, site analysis, and feasibility studies to gather all necessary information. This may include environmental impact assessments, zoning regulations, and local building codes, as well as a thorough understanding of the client’s needs and expectations. The goal of this phase is to ensure that the project’s concept is viable and aligned with the client’s goals and that any potential risks or obstacles are identified and addressed early in the process.

Concept Design

The concept design phase of a construction project marks the creative inception of the project, where the initial ideas and visions take shape. During this phase, architects, designers, and project stakeholders collaborate to develop a broad conceptual framework that outlines the project’s overall vision, purpose, and aesthetics. The primary goal is to translate the client’s requirements and aspirations into a conceptual design that captures the essence of the project.

This phase often includes rough sketches, conceptual drawings, and 3D models that provide a visual representation of the proposed design. While the focus is primarily on the project’s form and function, the concept design phase sets the stage for the subsequent phases of the project, including detailed design, planning, and construction, by establishing a clear design direction and vision that guides the project’s evolution.

Site Plan Approval & Building Permit

The site plan approval and building permit phase of a construction project is a critical juncture in the project’s development. During this phase, the project team submits comprehensive documentation and plans to local authorities, such as municipal planning departments and building permit offices, for review and approval. The site plan approval process typically involves a thorough evaluation of site-specific factors, including zoning compliance, environmental impact, traffic flow, and utility connections. Simultaneously, the building permit application focuses on the technical and safety aspects of the project, ensuring compliance with local building codes and regulations.

This phase serves as a bridge between the project’s design and the actual construction, as obtaining the necessary approvals and permits is essential before groundbreaking can occur. Successful navigation of this phase ensures that the project aligns with all legal and regulatory requirements, setting the stage for the subsequent construction phase with the confidence that the project is in full compliance with local ordinances and safety standards.

Construction Management

The construction phase of a construction project is the hands-on stage where the carefully planned and designed concepts become a tangible reality. During this crucial stage, project managers, contractors, subcontractors, and skilled laborers work together to execute the project according to the approved designs and plans. This phase involves a series of activities, including site preparation, excavation, foundation work, structural construction, and the installation of systems and finishes.

Project managers oversee the day-to-day operations, ensuring that the work progresses according to the established schedule, budget, and quality standards. Quality control and safety measures are paramount, with regular inspections and adherence to safety protocols to guarantee the well-being of all involved. The construction phase represents the culmination of extensive planning and preparation, transforming a concept into a fully realized structure that can serve its intended purpose.

Commissioning

The commissioning phase of a construction project is the final and critical step before the project is handed over to the owner or end-users. During this phase, rigorous testing, verification, and fine-tuning of all building systems and components are conducted to ensure that they function as designed and meet performance criteria. This includes mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and other critical systems. Commissioning also involves the documentation of operation and maintenance procedures to facilitate the efficient future operation of the facility. Additionally, staff training may occur during this phase to ensure that those responsible for operating and maintaining the building have a clear understanding of its systems and equipment.

Successful commissioning is essential to guarantee that the project operates efficiently, safely, and with optimal performance once it is put into service, ultimately delivering a well-functioning and reliable facility to the client or end-users.
