The attention paid to careful planning prior to the start of construction provides the foundation on which every subsequent step is based. By addressing critical details during preconstruction, ACT frequently can reduce the number of construction-phase changes, reduce construction time, and increase cost savings. Preconstruction planning also ensures that the finished product is built to the customer’s needs and total satisfaction.
The ACT team has constructed large multi-story offices, residential towers and major commercial / industrial facilities. Our customers include manufacturers, financial institutions, hospitals, retailers, churches, colleges, and government agencies.
Whenever possible, Act seeks to work closely with the client and design team to become involved with projects from conception to completion. Important activities covered during preconstruction can include:
Reviewing project scope and approach
Maintaining accurate cost estimates and budgeting
Analyzing scheduling, materials, building systems, and construction methods
Obtaining input from experts in such disciplines as mechanical and electrical systems, foundations, structural detailing, and purchasing. Other important planning areas we cover in the preconstruction phase include:
Coordinating Contract Documents
Value Engineering
Preparing a Guaranteed Maximum Price
The involvement of ACT ‘s construction professionals during the preconstruction planning stage ensures continuity between preconstruction and construction, so that decisions made during project planning are accurately implemented in the field.
