Constructability Review – Our constructability reviews focus on identifying potential problems, such as vague requirements that may impact the construction or administration. We verify that the bid documents are clear, concise and coordinated with the appropriate construction trades. Our review includes checking to see that existing conditions are accurately reflected on the plans along with contractor access, staging areas and limitations of the work environment. Reviewing the design strategies and ensuring that construction layout, functional relationships, space allocations, accessibility and circulation, security and safety are properly addressed in the construction documents. The end result is a high quality, cost efficient, accurate bid for the project with little to no additional costs during construction.
