Construction Management

In many situations, property owners and condominium associations are not equipped or do not have the required personnel and experience to manage all the various contractors and trades that are required to complete a commercial reconstruction project.  They may understand that they need roofers, electricians, carpenters, laborers, and others, but they do not know how to manage and run those trades on a daily basis, create efficient project schedules and resolve conflicts and field issues that arise between them as to designs, scope of work, change orders, etc.In these situations, we often help clients by acting as a construction manager that locates, retains and manages the various subcontractors, trades and material providers required to successfully and timely complete a project.

The National Group offers a wide range of construction services, but we believe that Construction Management is one of the best systems for any project.  For each dollar the client has to invest in the project, we can deliver the most effective combination of a high quality project at the lowest cost.  We can provide:

• Project Budgeting
• Project Scheduling  
• Value Engineering
• Construction Administration
• Contract Administration
• Insurance Claims Submittals 
• Cost Accounting and Auditing

Construction Management allows us to work as a partner with owners and other professionals during the planning phase of the reconstruction project.  This is when the greatest impact on project costs can be achieved.  The earlier in the process a decision is made, the more significant the savings can be for the owner.  We utilize our cost estimating talents to deliver a quick, accurate analysis of many different options to allow the owner to make sound, long-term cost effective decisions.
