CLIENT REPRESENTATION

Value management is not simply a component of a project. The most cost-effective projects employ value management principles as the foundation of the project. At MCG, effective value management goes beyond periodic drawing analysis, which is limited to function, shape and details. We also focus on process because significant value may also be achieved there. Building size affects both first-costs and life-cycle costs. So, our process generally begins by developing programming efficiencies. We learn your business goals and project objectives. We study your market segment, competition and then, recommend the most efficient solutions. Identifying and implementing the best value management plan for your project is a specialty of MCG.

DESIGN MANAGEMENT

Design management integrates the client’s vision into the technical documentation that will be used to build the environment. MCG representatives are knowledgeable to complex building systems that are required by this building type. They are responsible for understanding the jurisdictional requirements, the complexities of the vision, knowing which specialty consultants are required and clearly communicating these elements to the design consultants.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

MCG, a full-service project management organization, delivers proven results on large and small projects, new construction or repairs and renovations. We begin by learning about your company. Then, we develop a project management strategy, submit alternatives for project delivery, help you understand available options and propose methods for implementing the plan. Finally, we create a team committed to the project’s success. We assume full advocacy for and proactive management of the project.

The goal of cost-effective scheduling and project controls is to avoid costly surprises. Comprehensive schedules enable projects to be optimally planned, organized, resourced and delivered.
