With a robust history of successfully managing construction projects for our clients, FWS is proud to offer a comprehensive suite of services, including construction management. Our involvement begins at the project’s inception, where our construction manager collaborates with the owner and design consultant to assess initial drawings and formulate an execution strategy, subject to the owner’s approval.

Comprehensive Project Oversight

Under the construction management model, FWS takes charge of the entire process. This includes:

  • Coordinating design professionals  
  • Determining a work budget and schedule
  • Managing the construction work, schedule and costs
  • Inspecting the work
  • Determining defects or deficiencies and organizing the trades to rectify defects
  • Determining completion
  • Managing warranty claims

We work closely with owners to ensure that we manage their risk while leveraging the experience and resources of the FWS team.  

Hybrid Approach

FWS has successfully adopted a hybrid approach that combines design-build and construction management. This flexible approach allows us to navigate projects precisely, leveraging our design, engineering and construction expertise for specific components. Simultaneously, we employ the construction management model for areas beyond our customary proficiency or deemed high-risk. This optimized combination of strengths ensures a comprehensive and successful project outcome.
