Preconstruction Process
What is the preconstruction process, and why is it important?
The preconstruction process is the foundation of a successful project. It involves consulting with clients to align on the project’s scope, budget, design, and schedule upfront. By investing in this phase, we set the stage for efficient execution, mitigate risks, and ensure quality outcomes.

Creativity is at the heart of what we do. Snags are inevitable in the design and construction process, but we handle them transparently, collaboratively, and creatively. We often ask, “What else is possible?” to ensure we’re finding the best solutions for you.
