LCK’s preconstruction services come into play early in a project’s evolution. ​ During the vision-casting or feasibility stages and continuing into the project planning phase, our preconstruction team leads the way. ​ ​ From master planning and project strategies to preparation of comprehensive development budgets and schedules, LCK provides technical and financial information that is essential to sound decision-making for our clients. ​ Decisions made at these critical steps will drive cost containment and savings throughout the remainder of the project.

Our team provides comprehensive rough order of magnitude budgeting, evaluation and verification of contractor estimates, management of procurement services, design oversight and peer plan reviews, cost negotiations and value engineering. ​

LCK offers cost management as a stand-alone alternative. ​ ​ Our services are customizable and can include strategic-level budgeting solutions as well as detailed line-item take-offs and estimating at a single phase or multiple phases of a project. ​ Our budgeting is comprehensive, extending beyond bricks and mortar to include projections for soft costs such as design, FF&E, moving expenses, financing, etc. ​ We think of everything!

Architects, engineers, developers and others often tap us to join their teams as a subject matter expert in cost management. ​

CLOSE

Lending institutions and other clients often take advantage of our expert site inspection services. ​ Instead of managing the process, LCK monitors work in progress serving as an unbiased observer.

First, we conduct a thorough review of the construction documents, agreements, insurance certificates, environmental and geotechnical studies and more. Our findings from the review are included in a comprehensive report which outlines the thoroughness of the project documentation and details any identified concerns.

Subsequently, LCK’s project managers conduct site inspections and recommend approval or adjustment of payment applications submitted for the project. A detailed monthly progress report is submitted with the pay application recommendation, documenting activity during the month, percentages of completion, and any observed concerns.

 

LCK offers a comprehensive approach that extends beyond hiring separate, isolated design or construction professionals to manage different parts of your project. We help you see the big picture of your project by guiding you through activities such as preparation of budgets and schedules, accounting for hard and soft costs, financing, operating costs for the facility and more.

 

You may engage us for just one service, but our best results come from creating a customized plan for you that includes the right combination of services to generate maximum time and cost savings for your project.
