Project Management Options
Apex Building and Contracting offers several different Project Management approaches depending on the level of involvement each client desires. Project Management options can be tailored to each specific project and we would be happy to provide guidance on the best fit for your project.
Explore our typical approaches below.
► Bid-Spec
CLIENTS
In the Bid-Spec approach the client manages the project, handles the design and engineering, the permit process, the site plan process and the tendering process. The client will obtain a consultant to direct them through this process and provide a set of drawings and specifications for Apex to quote from.
APEX
We provide a stipulated price contract quote for the work defined in client-supplied drawings and specifications. We assume the role of general contractor and take the project from permit stage to final move in. This approach provides a turnkey project from drawing stage to completion.
PROS Using the Bid-Spec allows clients the maximum involvement in the design and permit stages. Clients can also use the bid-spec package to obtain multiple and competitive pricing from more than one contractor. CONS Bid-Spec requires the client to spend up front money, with little or no contractor involvement. Design and construction stages are more segmented and construction of the project is closed book. The client takes the risk that the project they designed will fit into their budget and if not, that second rounds of design may be required.
► Design-Build
CLIENTS
With the Design-Build model, the client obtains the services of a contractor before official design begins.
APEX
Apex takes on the role of the Prime Consultant on the project, we coordinate the design process, drawings, engineering and permits. Our in-house designers provide design concepts, 3D renderings, working drawings for permit, and work closely with Architects and Engineers as required. Apex can provide Prime Consultant services for zoning, site plan, permit and all the way to closeout.
During design Apex will compile and maintain a proposed construction budget. After design Apex will obtain competitive pricing from multiple sub contractors to compile a total project cost prior to on site construction.
On site, Apex will function as the General Contractor and coordinate the project and sub contracts from permits to completion.
PROS Design Build brings the Contractor onboard at an early stage before detailed drawings and engineering is done, and can simplify the planning process and provide valuable consultation throughout the entire project, from design to completion. CONS For the client, bidding from multiple contractors occurs pre-design and is an exploratory comparison rather than a fixed priced comparison like Bid-Spec.
► Construction management
CLIENTS
Construction management approaches a project much like the Design Build option, but is more open book, and offers a flexible approach to client involvement. Clients are part of the required decision making process.
APEX
As Construction Manager, Apex is responsible to build the team on behalf of the client—networking the client, consultant and contractors to create seamless coordination throughout the project.
Apex will also arrange, provide and maintain construction budgets throughout the design. After the design Apex will arrange the tendering process with the involvement of the client. Together, Apex and the client consult on a mutually beneficial sub contract tender list, and while Apex will ensure the tenders are accurate comparisons, the client makes the final decisions on all sub contracts.
Apex functions as the General Contractor on site, and issues all chose orders to the sub contractors. Apex will coordinate the schedule and on-site constructor from start to completion.
PROS Construction Management leverages the advantages of having contractor involvement from day one, yet without a closed-book project approach. It allows for a flexible, integrated approach between the client and Apex. CONS The budget cannot be necessarily fixed before the project commences or design is undertaken. While the Construction Manager is responsible to ensure the highest level of budget accuracy possible. Costs are invoiced at actual cost levels as per the Construction Manager contended.
