What is Project Management?
 |
Through its project management division (formally Building
Systems Management) KG companies has helped many clients save hundreds
of thousands of dollars. The process is simple. An owner or client hires
KG Companies at the inception of the project. We coordinate all planning
and design aspects of the project.
We coordinate the efforts of the Architect, Engineer, and land
acquisition team, as well as facilitate the application of preliminary
and final site plan approvals.
Our services do not take the place of any member of the
development team; rather we enhance their ability to operate in an
efficient and productive way.
We provide cost estimating services along the way and assist in
value engineering the project in the design phase in order to maximize
the cost effectiveness of a project from the start, saving both time and
money.
Once the project is through the design phase we coordinate all
aspect of the construction process and act on behalf of the client
during construction.

KG companies can provide construction
phase services in one
or all of the following ways:
• Simple Owners Representative Services

KG companies acts solely as a sounding
board and owners advocate on the project. In this capacity we are
typically not involved in the management of the construction at all. |
• Limited Construction Management

KG companies will be
involved in the project in a purely administrative capacity. We
will prepare contracts, payment applications, conduct meeting
and inspect the job for overall compliance of the specification
on the owner’s behalf. In this capacity we are typically not
involved in the day to day management of the job and the owner
is the final word on scheduling and jobsite management. |
