During programming, we institute controls and procedures for the project development process. We assemble data; review studies and budgets, and analyze contract commitments. If additional project information is required, we coordinate its development. The following is a list of specific tasks and descriptions of the effort provided during this phase.

• • Develop Project Delivery Strategies:
• • Develop Project Budget:
• • Review preliminary estimates:
• • Develop cost models:
• • Document procedures:
• • Develop Master Schedule:
• • Develop Decision Tracking System:
• • Advise owner on Phasing Strategies:

As the design efforts begin, we work with the design team to increase the value of the project for the money spent. We review progress of each design team, and we will oversee and evaluate their work. We also conduct ongoing value engineering reviews to afford the owner the best cost to value systems available

• • Monitor Design Schedule:
• • Develop Procurement Schedules:
• • Establish Charts of Account:
• • Review Design Alternatives:
• • Review Project Cost Estimates:
• • Identify Value Engineering Opportunities:

During design development, we conduct periodic reviews of all design documents to detect errors and recommend improvements. We also continue to manage all project consultants, schedules, and contracts to ensure all disciplines are meeting their contractual deliverables.

• • Monitor Design Development Schedule:
• • Review Plans and Specifications:
• • Continue Value Engineering Reviews:
• • Review Project Cost Estimates:
• • Compare Estimates to Cost Models:
• • Update Charts of Account:
• • Identify Long Lead Items:
• • Identify and Solicit Contractors:

• • Bid Packaging
• • Bid Advertisement / Solicitation
• • Contractor Prequalification
• • Pre-bid meetings and job walks
• • Administer bid opening, analysis and award

We continue to conduct periodic reviews of the design documents to detect errors and recommend improvements. We also review the design for constructability and ease of interpretation, and we continue to manage all project consultants, schedules, and contracts. We begin to coordinate the bidding or negotiation of the construction contract utilizing strategies that are the most advantageous to the owner.

• • Negotiate Contracts:

QA/QC programs start first with a corporate and employee commitment. We know that our employees are on the front lines of service to our clients, and they are key to the success of our organizations. The people that staff a project must first have a commitment towards quality of documents and construction.

• • Define Quality:
• • Establish Standards:
• • Document Quality
• • Perform Reviews:
• • Analyze Sequence of Construction:
• • Review to Check Document Progress:
• • Institute Building Information Modeling (BIM):

Construction Process
As work begins in the field, we assign our professionals to the sites. We administer and oversee all construction, while maintaining all accounts, records, logs, and reports in our management information systems. We manage quality control inspections, review safety programs, and analyze schedule and cost alternatives.
