Construction management

Construction Management is a team approach to a project. MACSON works with the client and consultant team from project conception through to completion. Early involvement of the construction manager provides beneficial input and expertise regarding construction methods, materials, scheduling and budgets. The Construction Manager will also provide advice regarding value engineering, life cycle costs, project cost control and quality controls during construction. 

Once the client’s project program is developed and the construction requirements are established, the appropriate contractual agreement for the project will be executed. The construction management contract may be a fixed fee, percentage based or maximum project cost. Construction Management allows for greater flexibility in the contractual agreements which is beneficial to projects that are more complex or require fast tracking.
