Preconstruction Consulting

As a preconstruction consultant, Friedrich Watkins engages the entire project team to establish project goals, scopes of work, budgeting, estimating, scheduling, constructability, and project logistics plans.

Estimating

Our Clients rely on Friedrich Watkins' ability to provide timely and accurate estimates. We rely on our experience, industry knowledge, and historical cost database to ensure our estimates are detailed, correct, and cover the complete scope of work. During the pre-construction phase, Friedrich Watkins evaluates all building components and construction methods. By utilizing our experience, we can effectively evaluate more cost-efficient products and/or means of construction that may be implemented to reduce client costs without impacting the end product's quality.

Construction Management

At Friedrich Watkins, we pride ourselves on being the Owner’s advocate and treat every project as if it is our own. As Construction Manager, Friedrich Watkins works with the Owner and the owner’s consultants early in development to ensure the project goals are achieved. After detailed coordination with the owner and the design team, we will establish a budget, schedule, and project-specific quality control and safety plans to ensure the project is delivered on time, on budget, and of the highest quality.

Design-Build

The design-build delivery is becoming a preferred method by many clients as it allows Friedrich Watkins to be your single point of contact for all aspects of the project. We have longstanding relationships with qualified design partners and a proven track record of successfully delivering design-build projects. We will provide a design team specifically tailored to your program's requirements and goals. The design-build process embraces Friedrich Watkins' open and collaborative approach to project delivery. Implementing the design-build delivery method can add value, reduce project costs, and allow for a shorter overall project delivery timeline.

The Friedrich Watkins team has a long history of performing work in the traditional “design-bid-build” delivery method as well as negotiated delivery. Through our extensive experience completing complex and diverse projects, we will become your trusted partner and manage the entire construction process.
