Construction Administration

During construction we maintain intense and active participation with the owner and the contractors to make the process go smoothly. What differentiates us from other firms is that we employ several experienced full-time construction representatives who perform only in that capacity. This strategy results in project representation from concept through construction completion. They represent both the designers and the owner in making certain that construction meets expected standards, and construction costs are appropriately managed.
