Construction Management Services

Overland’s commitment is to provide the right combination of administrative leadership and management talent to ensure timely completion of a successful project, whether it’s a complete turnkey facility or a specialized tenant improvement.  Overland works with its building partners throughout the planning, design and construction phases to maximize value and efficiency and to minimize cost. The process starts with comprehensive pre-construction planning. We bring together all the major players together, i.e., Overland’s construction management team, the architect, the engineers and consultants, and the major subcontractors to develop strategies for site layout, value engineering, construction, cost analysis, scheduling and procurement of long lead-time items. This facilitates productivity. Pre-construction planning involves:

• Site Evaluation & Analysis
• Development Services
• Conceptual Budges & Cost Estimating
• Production Schedules & Phasing
• Value Engineering
• Materials and Labor Analysis
• Plan Review
• Subcontractor Pre-qualification

To ensure that the project is built for the best price possible, Overland has developed an extensive subcontractor list of over 18,000 companies. Every aspect of every project is competitively bid to numerous pre-qualified subcontractors. This ensures that the project receives comprehensive bid coverage, competitive pricing and timely scheduling.

Construction management offers many advantages as a delivery system compared with the typical bid situation. These advantages include:

• Close coordination among all participants in the process
• Cost savings through design collaboration between the owner and the contractor
• Early identification of budget constraints in the design phase which reduces changes in the construction phase

Shortened project duration through better subcontractor selection, coordination and communication
