This is the time when your goals and aspirations really begin to take shape.
Preconstruction is the inflection point where design becomes more grounded. Details begin to take shape and alternate options are taken into consideration. But it’s also where detailed, timely, and accurate feedback on cost, schedule, and constructability is critical. That’s where we come in. Our goal? Proactively work with our clients and partners to achieve team buy-in, hold all team members accountable, and develop the best design possible using the best materials available within an accurate budget.
