Our capabilities
Construction & commercial management, engineered.
From pre-construction strategy through final account, we protect the commercial interests of our clients with the discipline of a builder, the rigor of a quantity surveyor, and hands-on site leadership.
Quantity Surveying
Detailed measurement, cost planning, bill of quantities, and valuation — from take-offs to final account, grounded in current market rates and construction knowledge.
Cost & Budget Control
Estimating, budgeting, cost forecasting and variance analysis so every dollar on the project is tracked, defended, and optimized.
Project Controls & Reporting
Integrated cost, schedule and cash-flow reporting for owners, developers, GCs and lenders — clear visibility at every stage of the build.
Estimation & Benchmarking
Conceptual and detailed estimating, independent cost benchmarking, and historical data analysis for tunnels, data centers, transit, real estate fit-outs, and more.
Procurement & Bid Management
Trade packaging, bid leveling, subcontractor pre-qualification and buy-out strategy to secure the right partners at the right price.
Contract Administration
Drafting, negotiation and administration of construction contracts (AIA, ConsensusDocs, custom). Change orders, notices, and closeout handled with rigor.
Change Orders & Contract Negotiation
Skilled negotiation of changes, claims, and contract terms to protect cost, schedule, and risk position without burning relationships.
Claims & Dispute Resolution
Delay analysis, extension of time claims, and commercial recovery. Independent expert support through negotiation, mediation, and arbitration.
Risk & Commercial Assurance
Contract risk reviews, insurance and bonding advisory, and commercial audits that protect margin from pre-construction to handover.
Infrastructure Services
Roads, bridges, transit, utilities, and public works — commercial management for complex infrastructure and heavy civil projects.
Real Estate Practice
Development advisory, owner-rep services, lease reviews, and site feasibility analysis for owners, investors and developers.
ZLDA Agreements
Zoning, land development, lease and access agreements reviewed, structured and negotiated to keep projects moving and compliant.
Our Approach
Four stages. One standard.
Every engagement follows a structured commercial framework — so nothing is improvised, and nothing is left on the table.
01
Pre-Construction
Estimate validation, contract strategy and procurement planning before a shovel hits the ground.
02
Buy-Out
Trade packaging, subcontractor selection and contract execution aligned to the project budget.
03
Execution
Cost reporting, change management and schedule-cost integration through the build.
04
Closeout
Final accounts, claims resolution and lessons learned — the project ends on your terms.
