What are the benefits of having a Construction Manager?

A Construction Manager’s duty is to provide objective project management and technical expertise to represent the best interests of the owner and the project. As the owner’s representative, the Construction Manager will view the project from a comprehensive perspective and typically manage the entire process: feasibility, entitlement, preconstruction, coordination of design, budget, schedule, quality and function, risk management, retention and coordination of the project team.

What are the most common construction management phases?

1. Initiating 2. Planning 3. Executing 4. Monitoring 5. Closing

When should I hire a Construction Manager?

A Construction Manager should be the very first firm hired for a project, even before the architect and contractor. A CM is most effective when it is not only afforded the opportunity to manage the construction, but also be part of the design, as it can bring great value to a project before the contractor is on-site.
