PRE-CONSTRUCTION
SERVICES

Early fabricator involvement catches problems before they cost money. We work with GCs and owners during design and bidding to make the fabrication phase run cleaner.

THE PRECONSTRUCTION PROCESS

01

Schematic / DD Review

We review structural drawings early to flag fabrication-driven concerns before CDs are issued — reducing RFIs and change orders after award.

02

Preliminary Budget

Conceptual tonnage estimate and ROM budget pricing based on structural drawings, specs, and scope description. Useful for GC budgeting and owner feasibility.

03

Spec Review

We review Division 05 specs against our capabilities — certifications required, NDT requirements, coating systems, submittals, and schedule milestones.

04

Procurement Lead Time

Current steel mill lead times change. We provide realistic delivery windows based on current market conditions so your schedule reflects reality.

05

Value Engineering

Recommendations on section substitutions, connection simplifications, or phasing that reduce cost or schedule without compromising structural intent.

06

Award Transition

Smooth handoff from preconstruction to detailing and fabrication — no lost information, no restarts.

Still in design phase?

Reach out early. Budget conversations are always easier before drawings are issued.
