- Stop Firefighting, Start Strategizing: Your Pre-Construction Playbook is more than paperwork; it's a dynamic strategic framework that sets every project up for success by defining objectives, budgets, and quality standards before you break ground.
- The ROI is Real: Investing in thorough pre-construction (around 2.5% of Total Project Cost) delivers an average 10% cost reduction, 7% schedule shortening, and can mean the difference between a 23% profit margin and a -3% loss.
- It’s All Connected: Your project’s scope, budget, schedule, and risk management are deeply intertwined. Get one wrong, especially the initial client needs assessment, and the whole project can unravel.
