DMB Design Manage Build

Services Provided

Construction Process * Design/Build Process * Principal Involvement DMB will be the general contractor on your project and provide the management required for its administration which will provide you with a single source of responsibility for performance and costs. During the Construction Process we will: * Coordinate and inspect all work. * Prepare and enforce subcontracts. * Buy project items and negotiate prices to reduce project costs. * Provide construction schedule and arrange general conditions. * Consult with architects and engineers when clarification or interpretation of the documents become necessary. * Obtain and submit in writing to all concerned understandings when a possible dispute may arise regarding contract guidelines on site. * Revise and refine estimates as construction proceeds and as required to incorporate approved changes as they occur. * Keep cost accounting records of all job components including separate accounting of the cost of any change order and its effect on the schedule. * Maintain accurate progress reports during all stages of construction * Send summaries as required, either by the owner or by the management. Computerize records of time, cost and materials, so that a print-out can be made rapidly on any classification basis required, including cash flow. * Set up a joint inspection of the project at specified intervals prior to completion. This inspection will be made by the construction manager with the owner representative, the architects and engineers and other interested parties. Final inspection is to be followed by decisions on everyone’s part as to the most economical and/or the fastest way of handling a “punch list” of incomplete and/or faulty installations. DESIGN/BUILD PROCESS Design The most decisive part of a project completion is defining its scope; its requirements and the characteristics of the site. In the Design/Build approach, we will obtain or review the following: * Boundary and Topographic survey * Regulatory requirements: * Zoning and building requirements * Availability of utilities * Ingress and egress requirement * Health & Safety requirements * Project goals Considering the foregoing information, we will develop a design for your entire project at the beginning development stage, and will furnish for your approval: * Master plan for the project * Proposed site plan * Floor plans * Unit layout if appropriate * Building elevations and design features * Specifications
