Frequently asked questions.

Can you gaurantee a no issue project without challenges to overcome?

Every development construction project encounters challenges and obstacles that must be addressed. No project is immune to problems.  What we promise is the support backed by our 25 years of project experience, working alongside you to navigate these issues and identify the most effective solutions. We consistently prioritize cost savings, time efficiency, and minimizing any negative impacts on the project, ensuring your interests are always at the forefront.​ 

Our ability to respond and adapt quickly is key. Our commitment is to steer your project towards the best possible outcomes, prioritizing efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and the mitigation of any adverse effects.​

Is hiring a project manager / OWner's representative another project cost? do we really need that guy?

A proficient Owner's Representative Project Management firm, working diligently on behalf of the owner, can significantly reduce project costs and timelines. We firmly believe in this statement and have witnessed projects save more than six times our fee in direct construction project costs. This figure doesn't capture the time saved for your staff and other indirect cost-saving benefits.
​
The peace of mind gained from having experienced professionals on your side, helping you navigate the construction process, is an invaluable advantage. It is hard to quantify the relief from stress and worry our services provide. We actively work to mitigate the cost and schedule impacts of any issues that may arise during the construction process, ensuring a smoother experience for our clients.

when should we hire a project manager / owner's representative?

A Project Management firm can have the best impact for cost and time savings when engaged early in the project process. When engaged before a shovel hits the ground, before a Architect or Contractor is hired, that's when a PM firm can save the client the most money. But we can assist the owner bringing value and savings to the table at any point of the project process.

how involved will the project manager / owner's representative be in the project?

The level of involvement we provide depends on the unique needs of the owner and the project. All projects necessitate some degree of owner engagement throughout every phase. In cases where owners have prior experience with building projects or possess in-house expertise, engage with subject matter experts, we collaborate with the a team to deliver the best possible outcomes. Conversely, for owners with limited time and experience, we step in to offer comprehensive support, ensuring their projects are successfully executed without undue burden on their shoulders.

Worth noting. Critical to the project's success is the owner's involvement during the design phase, which ensures that the project aligns with their vision and requirements from the outset. Whether providing expertise in specific areas or leading the project through every phase, our role is adaptable to ensure that every project we manage not only meets but exceeds expectations.​​

Do the General Contractor and Architect perform the same functions as an Owner's Representative Project Manager in a construction project?

​We do not replace the General Contractor,  Architect, Engineers, or other Subject Matter Experts that may be required for a project; instead, our primary objective is to facilitate their smooth and organized performance, keeping the owner's plans, costs, and schedule in mind. With 25 years of project experience, we possess a deep understanding of team member responsibilities, a critical skill acquired only through extensive hands-on exposure.  Every project is unique, yes, but all are similar in a lot of ways. Managing a construction project can be a complex endeavor, involving thousands of tasks, decisions, resolutions, and solutions that must converge harmoniously for a successful outcome. Our approach is to simplify this process by providing unwavering support to the owner, ensuring that every party involved is effectively performing their tasks with a focus on time and budget. This collaborative approach paves the way for the successful completion of each project.
