Project Initiation and Consultant Management
Project Kickoff and Scope Definition
We begin with a detailed project kickoff meeting with all stakeholders, including the client, project managers, and consultants. We assess the project’s scope and identify necessary consultants—such as architects, civil engineers, and environmental specialists—while establishing clear communication channels and a project timeline.
Consultant Hiring and Management
We manage the hiring and coordination of key consultants, including architects, civil engineers, MEP engineers, and surveyors. By developing scopes of work and serving as the primary contact, we ensure that every consultant aligns with the project’s goals and budget.
Design Development and Permitting Strategy
Design Coordination and Documentation
We oversee the coordination between architectural teams, civil engineers, and other consultants, ensuring that designs align with the project’s vision and regulatory requirements. Regular design coordination meetings keep the process on track, while value engineering inputs help maintain the project within budget.
Comprehensive Permitting Strategy
Our team develops and executes a thorough permitting strategy, managing the preparation and submission of all necessary documents. We handle communication with city and county agencies, regulatory bodies, and utility providers, ensuring a smooth and efficient permitting process.
Planning, Budgeting, and Ongoing Coordination
