1-     Pre-Construction

What we do at Constructive in Pre-construction phase of a construction project?

By effectively managing all aspects during the pre-construction phase, we always set a solid foundation for a successful construction project. Our clear communication, strategic planning, and stakeholder engagement are essential to ensure that the project starts on the right track and progresses smoothly into the construction phase.

Project Strategy:

  • Project Objectives: Clearly define the project's objectives, scope, budget, and schedule. Our team ensure that these align with the client's needs and expectations.
  • Risk Assessment: Identify potential risks that could affect the project. Develop risk mitigation and probability plans to address these challenges.
  • Resource Allocation: Determine the resources required for the project, including personnel, equipment, and materials. Create a resource allocation plan to ensure efficient use.

    Design Management:

    • Conceptual Design: At Constructive our architects and engineers collaborate to create a conceptual design that meets the project's requirements and aligns with our client's vision.
    • Regulatory Compliance: We must ensure that the design respect to local building codes, zoning regulations, and environmental standards, to obtain necessary permits and approvals.
    • Value Engineering: Explore cost-saving opportunities without compromising the project's quality. Evaluate alternative materials or construction methods that could optimize the design.

      Procurement Management:

      • Procurement Strategy: We determine the procurement approach, such as traditional procurement, design-build, or construction management. Select the most suitable strategy based on project requirements.
      • Supplier and Contractor Selection: We identify potential suppliers and contractors through a competitive bidding process. We evaluate bids based on criteria such as cost, experience, and capability.
      • Contract Negotiation: Our team negotiate contracts with selected suppliers and contractors. We ensure that terms and conditions are clear and aligned with project objectives.

        Constructive approach to stakeholder management ensures that all relevant parties are acknowledged, engaged with, and that their expectations are proactively managed. This not only mitigates risks but also enhances collaboration, leading to better project outcomes and a positive reputation within the community. Effective stakeholder management is a fundamental aspect of our commitment to responsible and successful construction practices.

        • Identifying Stakeholders: In the pre-construction phase, we should identify all relevant stakeholders. This includes the client, local authorities, community groups, suppliers, and subcontractors.
        • Engagement and Communication: We establish communication channels to engage with stakeholders. We regularly update them on project progress, address their concerns, and gather their input when necessary.

            2 -     Construction

          The effective management of progress, time, cost, and contracts during the construction phase is essential for delivering a successful construction project. It requires a combination of planning, monitoring, communication, and problem-solving to keep the project on schedule, within budget, and in compliance with contractual agreements.

          let's explore our key aspects of construction project management during the construction phase, which includes:

          Progress and Time Management:

          • Scheduling: We develop a detailed project schedule that outlines all tasks, their dependencies, and the critical path. We use project management software to monitor and update the schedule regularly.
          • Progress Tracking: We continuously track the progress of activities against the schedule. As we identify any delays or issues early and take corrective actions to keep the project on track.
          • Resource Allocation: Our efficiently allocate labor, equipment, and materials to ensure that work progresses according to the schedule.
          • Time-Cost: Constructive Team assess the impact of schedule changes on project costs and make informed decisions about accelerating or delaying certain activities.

                  3 -   Post-Construction

                This phase is essential for ensuring that our client receives a fully functional, defect-free facility and that any issues that appear are notifying immediately and efficiently. Constructive proper management during this phase contributes to client satisfaction and the overall success of the construction project.

                Handing Over:

                • Documentation: Constructive team compile and organize all project documentation, including plans, specifications, as-built drawings, manuals, warranties, and maintenance instructions.
                • Punch List: We create a punch list of any remaining tasks or defects that need to be notifying before the project can be considered complete. This may include cosmetic touch-ups, adjustments, or outstanding items.
                • Final Inspection: We must conduct a final inspection to ensure that all work meets the agreed-upon quality standards and specifications.
                • Client Acceptance: We should obtain formal acceptance from the client or owner, signifying that they are satisfied with the completed project.
                • Occupancy Permits: If applicable, we ensure that all necessary occupancy permits are obtained from the relevant authorities.
                • Transition Plan: We develop a transition plan to transfer responsibility for the facility from the construction team to the client's operations and maintenance team.

                   DLP (Defects Liability Period):

                  • Warranty Period: The DLP, also known as the warranty period, is a specified period after project completion during which the contractor is responsible for notifying and rectifying any defects, issues, or lack in the construction work.
                  • Defect Resolution: During the DLP, our client can report any defects or issues they experience. The contractor is committed rectify these problems immediately with no additional cost to the client.
                  • Regular Inspections: We conduct regular inspections and assessments during the DLP to identify and document any defects or issues. This helps to ensure that all problems are identified and resolved in a timely manner.
                  • Documentation: Our team maintain detailed records of all defect reports, communication, and actions taken during the DLP. This documentation is very critical for tracking the resolution of issues.
                  • Closure: Once the DLP expires, and all defects have been rectified to our client's satisfaction, we formally close out the project and release any remaining contractual obligations.
