The full arc of your project.

Phase 01 of 05

Initiate

The goals, the numbers and the program, agreed before anything is drawn.

Scope of Services at a Glance

Every project starts with agreement on what success looks like. We work with you to define the goals, scope, schedule, budget, risks and success metrics, and to build the case for funding and approval. Together we establish a conceptual budget, hard and soft cost, and a milestone schedule that carry through every later phase. A programming session then tests the architectural and engineering requirements against those goals, so the project is sound before design begins.

Phase 02 of 05

Plan

The charter, the approvals path and the team, set before money moves.

Scope of Services at a Glance

Here the vision becomes a plan the whole team can be held to. A visioning session formalizes the goals in a Project Charter, with the budget, the schedule and the constraints documented for your approval. We open the conversation with the authorities having jurisdiction early, so the path through entitlements and permits is mapped before it is needed. Then we assemble the team: identifying the consultants the project requires, running the RFQ and RFP process, and recommending awards through to executed contracts.

Phase 03 of 05

Execute

Design and procurement, held to the program and the budget.

Scope of Services at a Glance

Through design and procurement, we are your advocate at the table. We lead the owner, architect and contractor meetings, guide the design team from schematic design through permit documents, and keep the charter, budget and schedule current as decisions are made. We look for alternate materials, methods and systems that save cost or time, recommend how the contractor should be selected, structure the bid packages and recommend awards. Furniture, technology and security are procured with the same discipline, with long-lead items ordered early to protect the schedule.

Phase 04 of 05

Monitor

Construction, tracked and reported without varnish.

Scope of Services at a Glance

During construction, we watch the work so you do not have to. We host weekly jobsite meetings, walk the site regularly, and track the contractor's cost, quality and schedule against what was promised. Pay applications are checked against actual progress, change orders are evaluated before you are asked to approve them, and recovery plans are put in place when something slips. You receive clear status reports on progress and open issues, and your move-in is coordinated alongside the work.

Phase 05 of 05

Close

Punch list to occupancy. Finished means finished.

Scope of Services at a Glance

A project is not finished until it is fully handed over. We oversee the punch list, run the close-out meetings, and collect every document you will need to operate the building: permit drawings, warranties, logs and operations manuals. We coordinate key turnover, attic stock, training and the start-up testing of every system, and recommend final payment only with the supporting documents in hand. We finish with a debrief on how the project performed against the goals set at the start.
