Construction
Management
ELITE ATLANTIC’s construction management services are available to clientele that do not have a full set of finished architectural and engineering drawings available.Therefore as a construction manager we work hand-in-hand with subcontractors and suppliers, overseeing their work and devising ways to add value and keeps costs in line.
Working with an experienced construction manager allows for a higher level of transparency, as they provide preliminary real-time budget estimates to the project team throughout the design and building processes. An advantage associated with utilizing a construction manager is that the client will retain a high degree of control and involvement in the building process. The construction manager is in essence a consultant who provides the client with a professional hand. The construction manager will help solicit bids, review estimates, coordinate schedules, and oversee construction. The client will be closely involved with every step along the way. This option is ideal for a homeowner who has no building experience to get some of the benefits of being his or her own contractor, yet at the same time, trusting a qualified professional to lend confidence and guidance.

CHANGE ORDER
ANALYSIS
Every project presents unique challenges these challenges in many cases assume the form of change orders. Change orders are simply a fact of the construction development process. ELITE ATLANTIC is familiar with all aspects of construction contracts, standards of care, and the change order procedure. Many change orders and contract changes lead to changes to the construction schedule. In response to this dilemma ELITE ATLANTIC evaluates the changes that impact the project schedule and calculate the direct and indirect costs associated with such construction delays.
Issues that may entail schedule delay analysis consist of factors such as: differing site conditions, third party interference, change in scope of work, utility turnover weather related events, and simply randomly occurring events. A potential consequence of the from any of the proposed events is the loss of efficiency as well as loss of productivity. These types of inefficiencies may require the work force to work overtime, work a longer workweek or in congested site conditions. Individually and together, these types of impact scenarios may cause workers to work slower or less efficiently. ELITE ATLANTIC analyses requested and proposed change orders for owners, contractors and subcontractors. If our client needs a proposed change order priced or validated, we can assist any of our clients throughout the project’s duration.
