Construction Services
Design Building / Design Assist
As your Design/Build or Design/Assist team leader, Alan Jones Construction Ltd. will become involved with the owner and architect in the early design phase. Design/Build places AJC as the single source of responsibility for the project, and AJC hires the architect directly. Under Design/Assist, the owner directly hires AJC and the architect during project conception, to work together through design and construction.
Under both scenarios, preconstruction services are performed including estimating, cost control, scheduling and value engineering. Through each major step of the design process, close analysis will provide the team with continuous tracking and verification of the ever-changing project criteria. After working drawings are produced, AJC performs subcontractor selection. During construction, AJC supervises the work of the subcontractors from ground breaking through project closeout.
General Contracting
As your General Contractor, AJC will customarily begin with completed working drawings, and then develop a complete subcontract bid package. This bid package includes pricing proposals, schedules, and construction means and methods. Taking competitive subcontractor bids according to the project plans and specifications creates pricing proposals. Limited value engineering may be part of this package to offer you alternate methods to save money during construction. AJC performs subcontractor selection and supervises the work of the subcontractors from ground breaking through project closeout.
Construction Management
As your Construction Manager, AJC will act as an extension of your ownership staff, or as an owner’s agent, and as an intermediary among the design team, general contractor and owner. What differentiates construction management from general contracting is that AJC does not directly hire the subcontractors, but oversees the design and/or construction team. AJC will assist with the scope development, design team selection, contractor selection, project accounting and project closeout.
