Our Process

From first conversation to warranty — and what you should expect at each step.

Overview

A process built around decisions

Construction schedules are usually described as a sequence of activities. In practice, they are a sequence of decisions, and the project moves at the speed those decisions are made. Our process is designed to put the right information in front of the owner early enough to decide.

Every project is different, but the stages and the responsibilities are consistent. The owner always knows what we need, when we need it, and what happens next.

Step by step

What to expect

01

Prequalification and pursuit

We provide our prequalification packet, review the contract requirements and confirm that the scope, schedule and risk profile fit our capabilities. No bid is submitted without a field review.

02

Preconstruction

Estimating, constructability review, scheduling and risk planning happen together. On alternative-delivery work, this is where the target-value design and cost model are developed.

03

Permitting and procurement

We coordinate permits, long-lead equipment and subcontractor awards against the construction schedule so the first crew is not waiting on paperwork or a pump skid.

04

Construction

Our superintendent owns the field. Weekly progress, cost and safety reporting goes to the owner, and the decision log tracks every open item with a name and a date.

05

Commissioning

Systems are tested individually, then together, then under automatic control. Operator training uses the installed equipment and the owner’s own SCADA.

06

Closeout and warranty

As-builts, O&M manuals, spare parts, training records and warranty documentation are delivered as a complete package, followed by a structured warranty walk.

What you can expect from us
Communication

What you can expect from us

A weekly report that says what happened, what is next and what is at risk. A decision log with named owners and dates. A superintendent who answers the phone. A project manager who tells you about a cost issue before it appears in an invoice.

We also expect things from the owner: timely decisions, access to the site, and a clear point of authority. When those are in place, projects move.

What delivery methods do you offer?
We deliver Design-Bid-Build, Design-Build, Progressive Design-Build, CM/GC and CM at Risk. Our preconstruction team can support alternative-delivery pursuits with constructability review, open-book estimating, target-value design and GMP development.
How do you manage water plant commissioning?
Commissioning begins during design. We develop a written plan with the owner’s operations staff that proves each process train independently, then integrated automatic operation, before acceptance. Operator training uses the installed equipment and the owner’s actual SCADA screens. We stay involved through the plant’s initial operating period.
