Owner's-rep and CM-at-risk arrangements. For projects where you want pricing and trade implications flagged from the schematic onward, not handed over at the bid.
Working alongside the architect from schematic design onward. We price the design as it evolves, flag the trade-level implications of geometry decisions, identify long-lead items early, and surface code or constructibility issues before drawings get to bid. The owner sees the cost trajectory in real time rather than at bid.
An advisory-only engagement. The owner contracts directly with a separate GC; we sit on the owner's side of the table. Review pay applications, change orders, schedule slippage, sub performance. Walk the site weekly. Translate construction-speak into decisions the owner needs to make.
We hold the contract risk under a guaranteed-maximum-price (GMP) arrangement. The owner sees open-book cost accounting; if we come in under GMP, savings are split per the contract terms. If we go over, we eat it. The structure aligns our incentives with the owner's — tight scope discipline, no padded change orders.
If you've already chosen a GC and want a second set of construction-savvy eyes on the project, owner's-rep. If you want construction expertise on the team from day one and you want one contract that carries the risk, CM-at-risk. Either way, the goal is the same — the owner doesn't get surprised at the milestone meetings.
