5 Ways Your Property Can Benefit from Construction Project Management

10/16/2015

While many people associate the services of a construction manager with new development initiatives, the truth is that construction project management in California can also be immensely helpful for projects that take place within existing structures. Project managers are  able to oversee every aspect of the construction job to ensure it’s on track with timelines and  budgets. They can also provide astute guidance in project areas you may be unfamiliar with, and can assist with solution-oriented problem solving as challenges arise.

If you are planning a renovation or expansion of your property, the following are five important ways that construction project management in California can help:
  • Inspections: Skilled managers and teams can assist with a wide variety of assessments on  your structure’s current state. This can include an estimate of the value of your property, or an analysis of the structure’s efficiency and design. Inspections that are led by project management professionals set a solid groundwork for determining what areas to focus on  during reconstruction.
  • Earthquake analyses: Every building in California must be able to meet specific requirements related to seismic stability. These regulations ensure that each structure is able to withstand certain impacts from earthquakes and seismic motion. Project managers and consultants are knowledgeable of these provisions and can evaluate your property for any potential risks.
  • Compliance evaluations: In order for a building to be considered fully compliant, it must meet standards set in place by the region and the government. These requirements can pertain to fire safety, accessibility for handicapped visitors and more. Project managers  can evaluate a building’s current condition and then implement construction plans that  bring the structure to the highest levels of compliance.
  • Lowering risks: Before beginning a reconstruction job, it is essential to identify hazards and create contingency plans for areas that may throw your plan off of its schedule or budget. Project managers can assess an existing property and point out factors that may affect development. Anticipating potential problems avoids and reduces dangers, and saves you from possible headaches down the road.
  • Environmental assessments: Project managers can lead the important environmental inspections that are needed to ensure your building is safe for workers, tenants or other individuals inside your structure. These assessments can check for the presence of dangers like lead, asbestos and more. Managers can also inspect the environmental compliance of your building and confirm its energy use is in line with the law.

In addition to these five specific areas, project managers can also assist with overall construction planning, crew selection, timeline scheduling and the creation and implementation of budgets. For these reasons and more, working with a skilled management team has the potential to transform your reconstruction project and alleviate many of the stressors that can result from working on large-scale projects. Whether you are planning to renovate or completely reconstruct your property, project managers can support your goals every step of the way
