Pre-Construction

Cost certainty before there is a full drawing set. We build budgets from a program, a massing study or an early design package, state every assumption in the open, and update the number as the design develops.

What is included

Order-of-magnitude and cost-per-square-foot feasibility studies
Conceptual, schematic and design-development budgets
Escalation to the midpoint of construction, carried explicitly
Design and construction contingency sized to design completeness
Value engineering options with cost and scope impact side by side

Who it is for

For owners, developers, architects and CM teams who need to know whether a project pencils before committing to full design.
