Assessments & Due Diligence
Most projects are won or lost before a shovel hits the ground. We identify what the site, the numbers, and the regulatory environment are actually telling you — before capital is committed. What you learn here determines everything that follows.
Schematic Design & Cost
Design decisions made without cost intelligence are assumptions waiting to become problems. We work alongside your architects and engineers from the earliest drawings — ensuring every design choice is tested against real budget parameters before it becomes expensive to change.
Design Development
This is where assumptions become commitments. We manage the transition from concept to construction documents — tracking scope, cost, and contractor-readiness at every decision point so nothing reaches the field undefined or unpriced.
Estimating
A contractor's estimate protects the contractor. Ours protects you. We produce independent cost estimates at every phase — not to challenge the contractor, but to know before they tell you whether their number is real. That knowledge is the difference between a budget that holds and one that doesn't.
Plans and permitting
Permits don't fail because of bad drawings. They fail because the documentation doesn't anticipate what the jurisdiction will ask. We manage the full permitting process — preparation, submission, and active expediting — with the authority relationships and regulatory fluency that keep your schedule from sitting in a queue.
Purchasing
What gets ordered is not always what gets built. We manage the purchasing process with precise alignment to the contract documents — ensuring materials, specifications, and quantities match what was agreed, before they arrive on site and before it costs double to fix.
Material Expediting & Supervision
Late material is a contractor's excuse and an owner's problem. We track procurement against the project schedule with enough lead time to intervene — coordinating delivery sequences with the contractor and subcontractors so the site stays productive and delays don't compound.
Managing Designers & Supervising Contractors
Design and construction are two separate languages spoken by people with competing interests. We sit at the intersection — holding designers accountable to constructability and contractors accountable to the documents. That oversight is where budget overruns and change order disputes are stopped before they start.
