Construction Management

Owner-side management of scope, schedule, and cost, run by people with real field time behind them, not just a Gantt chart and a laptop in a trailer.

Service 02

What's included

A construction manager who has never run a crew tends to find out about a problem the same day it becomes expensive. Ours have. That field background is why our CM team catches sequencing conflicts, trade stacking, and schedule risk before they show up in a weekly report, and why the multi-trade coordination on a 300-person outage looks the same as it does on a ten-person crew: one person accountable for the whole picture.

  • Multi-trade coordination on capital projects and outages
  • Cost control and change management
  • Subcontractor management and quality oversight
  • Staffed up to 300 multi-trade personnel on our largest managed projects

How It Works

Our process for this scope

Step 1

Mobilization & Trade Coordination

Every trade on site knows its sequence, its laydown area, and who to call when something changes.

Step 2

Schedule & Cost Control

Weekly cost and schedule reporting against the baseline, with variances flagged before they compound.

Step 3

Quality Oversight & Inspections

Our own ISO 9001 quality process applied to every trade on the project, not just our self-performed scopes.

Step 4

Closeout & Turnover

Punch list, documentation, and as-builts delivered as a complete package, not a scramble at the end.

Field Experience, Not Just Software

Our CMs came up through the trades they now coordinate.

ISO 9001:2015 Quality System

The same audited process applies whether we are self-performing or managing subcontractors.

Boswell Unit 3 Retrofit

Minnesota PowerCohasset, Minnesota

A unit retrofit at an operating power facility, coordinated around a fixed outage window where every day of schedule slip had a real cost. Multi-trade sequencing and daily cost tracking kept the retrofit inside its outage window.
