OUR CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
PHASE 1:
Conception & Design
Like with all things, the first step to the construction life cycle is merely to begin. This may sound simple, but it is usually far from it. It is easy to come into a project with an idea. Translating that idea into actionable items requires a dedicated project team – the project will require input from each side.
PHASE 2:
Pre-Construction
Once the team or the feasibility test determines whether a project is worth undertaking, then the second step is the project's actual planning. In this phase, the project should be developed alongside its objectives and goals.
PHASE 3:
Procurement & Develpoment
Now is time for the most exciting phase of the construction life cycle – the project implementation. At this stage, all of the project planning and scoping is put to the test. Organizations and project teams need to ensure that their teams are on the same page, as any slight mistake in this phase can be damaging down the road.
PHASE 4:
Post Construction
This is the phase the project has led to, where project leaders must be ready to offer deliverables to their clients or present a completed construction project. Project leaders take on even greater responsibility during this stage, as they must finalize each aspect of the construction process, from scheduling to budget to final touches on the building or construction site itself.
PHASE 5:
Close Out/Occupancy
Specific period stipulated in a construction contract, that follows the post-construction phase. During this phase the contractor is required to ensure the equipment, material, and workmanship meets the specifications and that all supplier-and manufacturer warranties remain in force. Also called the guaranty phase or warranty phase.
