Pre-construction
Shingobee is an integral advisor and partner to its clients in the development and implementation of the construction program. Shingobee’s construction project management and early involvement in a project will save time and money and allows the client to proceed with confidence. Depending on what solution makes sense for your project, you choose the involvement our team will have with pre-construction services.
Our primary role during the pre-construction phase is to provide input on design / constructability, construction costs, and schedule. In cooperation with the design team, the Shingobee team evaluates the requirements of the program drawings, conceptual plans, and the budget to move the project through to completion of design and documentation. Our team’s expertise and knowledge of life cycle costs and construction methods bring valuable information to the process, and this information lends itself to a successful project schedule.
Shingobee systematically reviews and monitors the design for constructability issues and life cycle costs during the pre-construction phase. We evaluate building materials, equipment, and mechanical building systems for long-term energy efficiency and sustainability; assess materials for performance, availability, compatibility, warranty, and compliance with project requirements; and review construction details, clarity and completeness of documents. Throughout the design phases, we continuously investigate alternative details, materials, and equipment to give the owner their best value, meet the required specifications, and not compromise the design intent.
Being involved at the earliest planning stage, Shingobee can gain greater opportunities to understand the client’s business, develop creative integrated solutions, and propose ways to reduce costs. The long-term result is a product that adds to the productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness of a client’s operation. Trust in our construction project management team to make your dream a reality.
