Alps prepares a project schedule, which is used as a tool throughout the pre-construction and construction phases. The schedule is updated to reflect the project’s progress. It is invaluable to Alps Team and Subcontractors in monitoring the pulse of the job, helping to maintain a smooth running project. In addition, the schedule is reviewed at the project meetings with the Client and Architect to identify any potential coordination conflicts and changes.
Services Value
Alps reviews the detailed budget pricing with the Project
Team and revises pricing with their input. At this time any value engineering ideas,
cost breakdowns, and alternates are presented for review.
Budget Pricing Approval
After any necessary revisions, there is an approval of the budget pricing.
Long Lead Items
The next step in the process is for Alps to identify any of
the long lead items needed to maintain the construction schedule. Actual Subcontractor or
aterial proposals are submitted for approval. These Items are ordered and available as
needed.
Construction Documents
Alps is available during the preparation of the construction documents for information or additional pricing. Alps then reviews the final construction documents and completes a detailed take-off from the plans.
Subcontractor Bidding and Analysis
Alps will procure a minimum of 3 Subcontractors' bids in each
trade category to insure competitive pricing is presented to the Client. Upon receiving
Subcontractor bids, Alps analyzes the proposals in each trade, comparing the actual job scope
with the scope outlined in the Subcontractor proposals. A bid critique sheet is prepared for
review with the Client and Architect prior to the award of the Subcontractor contracts.
Construction Pricing
Using the qualified Subcontractor pricing and any additional value engineering options from the Subcontractors, the final construction pricing is compiled and submitted for approval by the Project Team.
