PROJECT COMPLETION

KEYS TO SUCCESS

IDENTIFY YOUR GOALS

Before you are committed to any

payment, before we have come to an agreed

fee together, we meet and must completely

understand how you want your finished

product to function. Through communication,

we help you organize your thoughts and

develop your preferences. We will have

suggestions for you to consider since we have

probably recently completed similar projects.

GOALS




REFINE THE DESIGN




PROJECT COMPLETION

KEYS TO SUCCESS

Down the road, one of the most disheartening

announcements would be the construction bids

are much more than the business plan or

mortgage would allow.

Our finished project must fit within the budget.

BUDGET



REFINE THE DESIGN




PROJECT COMPLETION

KEYS TO SUCCESS

We develop preliminary estimating drawings

using your needs and desires which we

communicate back and forth. Your budget is

the key to creating a functional and visually

satisfying project. We include in the design all

elements you identified as required. We work

with consultants and a cost estimator to

include the work necessary to complete the

project. We make adjustments to the

preliminary drawings and specifications to

balance the budget with the cost estimate.

COST ESTIMATING


REFINE THE DESIGN




PROJECT COMPLETION

KEYS TO SUCCESS

Once we know budget and the cost estimate

are together, we continue to identify,

communicate, and document our ideas

together. The goal is to guarantee that we

have considered all the facts and created the

best on paper solution that is ready to become

an as-built success. Our drawings create a

clear picture that assure there are no surprises. IDENTIFY YOUR GOALS



DESIGN DEVELOPMENT


REFINE THE DESIGN




PROJECT COMPLETION

KEYS TO SUCCESS

Our drawings shall be clear and accurate so

that the different contractors are bidding

“apples to apples.” The drawings must describe

all required elements of the project so nothing

is left out of the bid price. Each bidding

contractor will be showing the drawings to his

suppliers and craftsmen who will potentially be

turning the drawings into a real new building,

addition, or interior renovation. IDENTIFY YOUR GOALS



BID OPENING


REFINE THE DESIGN




PROJECT COMPLETION

KEYS TO SUCCESS

If the contractor submitted bids do not fit

within the original budget, we, at no additional

cost to you, negotiate modifications to the

project which will fit within the budget and

ensure your project is going to be built.

VALUE ENGINEERING


REFINE THE DESIGN




PROJECT COMPLETION

KEYS TO SUCCESS

Ground is ready to be broken. The contractor

has been selected. We have acquired building

and zoning permits. We have assisted with the

financial agreement between you and the

contractor. We, as Project Architect, will

follow through to completion.

IDENTIFY YOUR GOALS



CONSTRUCTION


REFINE THE DESIGN




PROJECT COMPLETION

KEYS TO SUCCESS

As with all previous phases, we are there to

coordinate all phases of the project. We

guarantee that the contractor is providing the

finished work as documented on the drawings.

We are there on site if a problem arises;

making sure it is our problem, not your

problem. We are responsible for project

completion, all approvals, and your satisfaction

with the finished project. IDENTIFY YOUR GOALS
