Before it can be go-time in any construction project, there are weeks of essential pre-construction activities that need to be done. During pre-construction, the team is assembled, strategic planning for the project gets underway, designs are drafted, permits are pulled and engineering reports are conducted. It’s a busy time that requires intense collaboration.

As you select your all-star construction team, here are a few key members who will be essential to the success of your project:

• Owner’s representative
• Project manager
• Architect
• Engineer
• Real estate, financing and insurance partners

Each partner plays a critical role in ensuring your interests and goals are achieved, and they all help you navigate pre-construction from their own expert lens.

For example, an owner’s rep adds value during pre-construction by ensuring that your wishes for the project are heard and achieved. The project manager will be active in managing the schedule, planning, and overseeing the project’s development to keep your build on time and on budget. Engineers will conduct surveys and run reports, architects will draft design plans, and the list of responsibilities goes on.

Selecting the right team for your project takes time, but the upfront effort will be worth it in the end when your project’s construction runs smoothly and successfully meets your target objectives.
