Construction Management

Construction Management at Chief Construction

A project owner typically hires a Construction Manager (CM) when they have a larger, more complex project. In this project delivery method, the project owner may have separate contracts for the construction manager, designer, and general contractor. The project owner may rely on the CM to hire and manage the design team and general contractor. In the construction management process, the CM can be interfaced at different points throughout the design process. It is best to have them on board early in the design process to add value via the pre-construction services.
