Our construction management services
What does “effective construction management” really mean? At Metropolitan Build, it means meticulous oversight of all aspects of the construction process, including:
- Managing resources
- Ensuring alignment with budget and schedule
- Streamlining workflows
- Addressing issues promptly to maintain project momentum
- Using project management tools to track progress and facilitate real-time decision making
- Setting trackable project milestones
- Communicating between all stakeholders to identify and avoid unexpected challenges
We believe that creating a collaborative network of construction professionals that respect one another is the only way to meet or exceed our clients’ expectations.
When to bring in a construction manager
Construction managers typically join a project before the design and budget are finalized. Why? The earlier we are brought in, the more value we can add, and the more opportunities we can identify for greater efficiencies.
Here are a few of the ways we help during pre-construction:
- Determine how to most efficiently segment the project
- Solicit competitive bids for subcontractors and equipment
- Identify money-saving alternatives within the design
- Provide input on construction methods, materials, and lead times
Partnering with a construction manager can save you time and money by reducing the risk of having to rework your design after it’s already finalized.
