Six ways we deliver a project.

CCDC 2 (2020)

Lead-in

6 to 10 weeks from award

General Contracting

Stipulated-price and design-bid-build delivery led by a dedicated superintendent and project manager. Our self-perform concrete and formwork divisions hold the critical path in-house, so schedule risk sits with us rather than a subtrade queue.

Scope of work

• Stipulated-price (lump sum) and unit-price contracts
• Self-perform cast-in-place concrete, formwork and rebar placement
• Full site supervision, hoisting and logistics planning
• Trade procurement, tender analysis and buyout
• Quality control, deficiency tracking and commissioning support

Lead-in

Construction Management

Where an owner needs early market pricing and phased trade awards, we act as construction manager at risk. Every buyout, allowance and contingency draw is visible in a shared cost report issued monthly with the progress claim.

Scope of work

• CM-at-risk and CM-as-agent mandates
• Open-book cost reporting with monthly reconciliation
• Phased tendering and early works packages
• Guaranteed maximum price at 60% design development
• Owner, consultant and authority-having-jurisdiction coordination

Programme saving

12 to 20 weeks typical

Design-Build

A single point of accountability for design and construction. We assemble the consultant team, carry the design risk and compress the programme by overlapping permitting, long-lead procurement and site enabling works.

Scope of work

• Consultant team assembly and design management
• Bridging document and performance-specification review
• Long-lead equipment procurement during permitting
• Building-envelope and energy-step-code coordination
• Single-contract warranty and turnover

Capability 3 of 6

Engagement

Fixed-fee or credited to contract

Estimate standard

CIQS elemental format

Turnaround

Class D in 10 business days

Preconstruction

Preconstruction is a discipline here, not a courtesy. Class D through Class A estimates, elemental cost planning to CIQS standards, 4D sequencing and constructability review are produced by the same team that will build the project.

Scope of work

• Class D, C, B and A estimates with elemental breakdown
• Value-engineering and life-cycle cost options analysis
• 4D schedule modelling and site logistics planning
• Permit strategy and municipal approvals sequencing
• Subsurface, hazmat and existing-conditions due diligence

Capability 4 of 6

Typical value

$500K to $18M

Typical duration

8 to 30 weeks

Crew model

Dedicated TI division

Tenant Improvements

Office, clinical and retail fit-outs delivered in live buildings. Night and weekend shifts, dust and noise mitigation, negative-air containment and landlord coordination are planned into the schedule from the first site walk.

Scope of work

• Office, clinical, laboratory and retail fit-outs
• Occupied-premises phasing and after-hours execution
• Infection-control and dust-containment protocols
• Base-building and landlord works coordination
• Furniture, fixture and low-voltage integration

Capability 5 of 6

Typical value

$2M to $60M

Occupancy

Phased, building in service

Reference standard

BCBC 2024, ASTM E2018

Building Upgrades

Structural strengthening, building-envelope renewal and mechanical replacement on assets that must stay in service. We work from condition assessments and depreciation reports to stage work across multiple fiscal years.

Scope of work

• Seismic upgrades to current BC Building Code provisions
• Building-envelope renewal and rainscreen replacement
• Mechanical, electrical and elevator modernization
• Multi-year capital-plan staging for owners and strata
• Heritage and hazardous-materials abatement coordination
