Project management starts when the project commences. There are many components in project management to build the project accurately, with attention to detail, on time, with quality, and on budget.
Project Management
Schedule
We create a project schedule online prior to starting. We baseline the project and manage the project with weekly updates. Our schedule is set up with each task, task assignments, task durations, task start dates, task completion dates, and task dependencies. The schedule is live and accessible by our entire team via mobile device and computer 24/7.
Engineering
We utilize geotechnical and structural engineers throughout each project. We keep detailed records of engineering documents to ensure everything is built correctly when it comes to structural integrity.
Inspections
Our team incorporates inspections into our schedules so that nothing is missed. We anticipate what is required to pass inspections to prevent downtime.
Job Log
Once each project has started, we keep a job log. The job log is in a log format and contains information about activity at the job site, weather conditions, progress, deliveries, items completed, to-do lists, pending items, etc. Our job logs are kept online for each project and can be accessed to create a report at any time.
Trades
All of our workers, subcontractors, and suppliers involved our projects have been vetted by our multi-point qualification process. We have been working with many of our workers and trades for over 10 years. We have some of the best trades in our area. We maintain signed trade contractor agreements with each trade working on our projects. We manage our trades with clear communication. We utilize trade checklists that we communicate before and after each task. We also maintain and manage a database of workers comp and general liability insurance certificates for all of our subcontractors.
Docs & Photos
Part of the project management process includes taking photos of the project site to show progress. We also maintain a database of all pertinent documents including permits, engineering documents, inspection letters, etc. All of these docs and photos are available online.
Punch List
We create punch lists as each task in the project is created. We have a multi-point quality control process for each task. Punch lists are our way of tracking issues that need to be addressed.
