We help our clients understand and achieve the optimal balance between function, quality, cost and schedule that meets their objectives. Our most common methods of project delivery are: Design-build, Construction Management, and Competitive Bidding.
Design-Build
A key aspect on design-build is the team approach. EPCON works closely with the customer in the planning, design, cost control, schedule and site investigation. A design-build team is jointly involved in producing a product that meets a client's need rather than merely acting as professional advisors. Collaboration of designers and builders is the foundation of design-build. The benefits of design-build projects include:
- Single point of responsibility
- Early knowledge of cost
- Time savings
- Cost savings
Construction Management
EPCON actively manages construction projects so that they are consistently delivered “on-time and on-budget” and with an intensive eye toward quality. EPCON offers professional construction management services that are tailored to the size and complexity of any given project. EPCON’s management services typically begin during design, and include:
- Schedule and budget evaluations
- Value engineering
- Structuring bid packages for the lowest cost of construction
- Monitoring and coordinating daily construction activities
Competitive Bidding
For more than 20 years, a significant amount of our work has been awarded on a hard-bid, at-risk basis. Our personnel are skilled at planning work, evaluating work, and estimating costs. With reliable cost estimating skills and extensive knowledge of material and labor, our estimating team effectively predicts and controls project costs, thereby providing the owner with a quality constructed project at the lowest price.
Self Perform
One of the ways we continue to deliver greater value to our customers is through our dedication and ability to self-perform certain critical trades. By performing fundamental scopes of work, such as foundations, drywall and carpentry, we are able to offer you more control, as well as set the tone and pace of the project
