Pre-Construction Steps

Some of the first steps of Pre-Construction is an initial budget estimate of the cost for the construction project. This is a crucial part of the process which gives an idea of the cost required for the project. The beginning stages will also involve the planning and designing of the construction project . This helps in identifying potential obstacles and solving the issues beforehand. A safety plan will be drawn up and posted at the job site, we will always emphasize the importance of safety measures during the construction process, this helps in creating a healthy working environment and minimizes risks. Setting appointments, planned meetups, and communication with other parties of the job, will always be a major factor when pre-planning.

Walking the job site, submitting for permits and approvals, checking all the legal requirements and regulations helps in avoiding legal issues and delays during the construction process. Determining the best suited materials for the project will be a constant focus point for Pre-Construction, as to take into account environmental factors like sustainability and eco-friendliness. It is vital that the project doesn’t harm the environment and meets the necessary regulations & codes.

To confirm that the final project will meet the desired quality standards, our Project Managers will meticulously, meet and vet contractors and sub-contractors to verify certifications, and to ensure the project will be completed as per the client’s exact specifications according to previously discussed and approved plans.

ECG Project Managers are to facilitate communication between stakeholders, including the client, architects, engineers, and contractors. This communication ensures that everyone is on the same page and that the project is progressing as planned. Going over the initial schematics and meeting with the engineer & client, will allow for a more successful Final Approval of the Design Documents, this part being one of the more difficult, time taxing parts of the process.

Some of the final steps of the process will be to go over the Final Estimate Costs, the Logistics of materials & crews, discussing Warranty and most importantly, a Safety Plan with what to do in case of an emergency.

The ECG team consists of skilled professionals who have extensive experience, training and certification as well as having been in the construction industry; in most cases, for over 15+ years.
