Preconstruction involves performing preliminary planning and engineering to define the project, identify potential issues, and analyze cost impacts. Preconstruction efforts ultimately assist the owner with determining project feasibility. If the project is found to be viable, the Pre-construction process defines the scope of work enough to determine a firm cost and schedule for the project.
Preconstruction services can be extremely beneficial to the project and owner in several ways. The project benefits by having a thorough analysis of a given preliminary design, in turn determining constructability conflicts, building code conflicts, design intent clarification and identifying any possible value engineering (cost savings). ANDCON performs a thorough material takeoff (quantification) of finish areas and building components to help build an accurate projected project budget using current industry pricing.
Most importantly, the owner has a defined basis to make an informed decision and decide on a direction on his or her project, substantially reducing risk; in turn, defining a clear path of construction for the project prior to funding approval.
