What is Construction Management
Construction management is a professional service that provides a project’s owner(s) with effective management of the project’s schedule, cost, quality, safety, scope, and function.
At its core, a capital project is made up of three parties (excluding the CM):
- The owner, who commissions the project and either funds the project directly or finances it through a variety of methods.
- The architect/engineer, who designs the project.
- The general contractor, who oversees day-to-day operations and manages subcontractors.
The CM represents the owner’s interest and provides oversight over the entire project directly for the owner. His/her mandate is to work with all parties to deliver the project on time, at or under budget, and to the owner’s expected standard of quality, scope, and function.
Bedford Falls Builders acts as your agent, working with your architect, designers, and builder, to complete a project that will fit your budget and schedule. In acting as the construction manager, we use our expertise to aggressively serve as your advocate. During the design and development phase, we can assist the owner and architect in selecting construction methods and materials. During the construction phase, we work with the builder to develop a final construction budget and schedule, review proposed change orders and payment requests for owner approval, and assist the owner with the final walkthrough and preparation for completion of the project.
