PROJECT PLANNING, PROCUREMENT & PRECONSTRUCTION INSIGHTS
​
Each project is special and has nuances that make it unique. First and most importantly, we listen to your thoughts, concerns, and goals to understand exactly the project that you envision. We guide you through what to expect during all aspects and phases of the project: planning, filing, permitting, and construction. We assist you with establishing your team: the procurement of consultants, which includes architects, interior designers, engineers, expediters, vendors, and contractors. We review and guide you through the execution of all necessary contracts. We provide you with a realistic project schedule, targeted milestone dates, and experience-based budget review throughout the project. We work with you to manage budget expectations by explaining potential challenges and proposing ideas and value engineering options. We troubleshoot issues that may impede project financials or timeline.

OWNER'S REPRESENTATION & DESIGN COORDINATION
​
We act as your representative and serve as a third-party objective overseer throughout the entire design and build process. Once your "dream team" is established, we oversee the design process from concept to construction documents. We provide the coordination of the design aesthetics with code compliance, permitting, and engineering. We can assist with your AV and security needs. We strive to eliminate construction ambiguities and potential conflicts between trades. We anticipate the procurement of long lead items and time-sensitive materials. We regularly update you on progress and troubleshoot any issues that arise.

CONSTRUCTION OVERSIGHT & PROJECT MANAGEMENT
​
We manage contractor bidding, selection, negotiation, and contract execution. To prevent delays, we conduct project team meetings to ensure required information is delivered to the correct parties. We provide on-site oversight of scheduling, installation, quality control, and program management. This consists of hands-on coordination of all direct-hire subcontractors and tradespeople. We manage and execute payments to all consultants, vendors, and contractors based on personal verification that work is correct and complete. We create and manage the project action list, construction punch list, and their completion. This can also include the installation of AV, furnishings, artwork, landscape, etc., to ensure complete project delivery to the client.

POST CONSTRUCTION, RELOCATION SERVICES & PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
We facilitate final testing and start-up of all equipment and systems and acquire the necessary documents like equipment use permits, warranties, etc. We organize close-out documents and as-built drawings for client and building management records. We acquire a Certificate of Occupancy and permit sign-offs as necessary. We can also help you execute required maintenance agreements. We provide all-inclusive, comprehensive logistical planning and moving coordination from one home to another, whether across town or across the country. This service includes comprehensive inventory, photo documentation, packing, art-crating, storage, and full move-in staging. Once settled in at your new home, we can provide comprehensive property management. This entails proactively conducting scheduled visits to troubleshoot routine home maintenance issues while away from your primary or secondary residence. This could include things like home temperature control in extreme weather, snow removal, pool checks, and landscaping oversight.
