Pre-Construction

Aquicon’s Pre-Construction services lead to creative, value-added solutions that match your needs and budget. Drawing on our decades of expertise in construction, we are able to provide our clients with development and design management, providing feasibility analysis and costing input into design.

Our project managers and senior managers lend their experience and insight to this crucial early stage of the process. They collaborate with clients to define their needs; to analyse materials and cost; and to make recommendations based on experience that align with the budget. To further reduce the risk for our clients, we offer the ability to convert to a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) contract once the design reaches a certain threshold, thereby eliminating the risk of running over budget and guaranteeing our work.

A comprehensive Pre-Construction process is essential to ensuring the success of your project. Whatever delivery model a client chooses, Aquicon’s involvement always begins with an exploration by our most senior people.

Before the plans for your project are drawn up, they will provide expert guidance on subjects including design feasibility, material choice, and preliminary costing, helping you make better decisions.

Pre-Construction also involves scheduling, budgeting, and a host of other specialized tasks. At the end of the process, you will be empowered with a far better understanding of what is possible and how your team will deliver it.

“The effort, organization, and constructive working methodology created by Aquicon is the key to their successful completion of projects within the stipulated schedule and budget, no matter how challenging.”
