THE CONCORD PROCESS

COST PLANNING & ESTIMATING:

Concord Building Group’s management team prepares comprehensive and detailed budgets and cost estimates for all project types (general contracting, design build, and construction management) utilizing a database of historical and current cost data and advanced estimating software. In addition, we have developed long lasting relationships with a team of economical, trusted subcontractors and suppliers to assist in developing accurate and competitive estimates and we go to great lengths to ensure our team of subcontractors and suppliers understand the complete project scope. Our accuracy in the estimating process leads to our ability to produce the most competitive pricing possible.

SCHEDULING:

Concord Building Group utilizes the Critical Path Method to develop the master construction schedule along with Lean Scheduling techniques to define key milestones and specific activity durations. Lean Scheduling requires input from all team members including specialty trades, owner vendors, suppliers and subcontractors. All parties gather together, provide input on specific activity durations, and agree to deadlines to permit the release of work activities from one trade to another. By utilizing a collaborative approach to project scheduling with an emphasis on fulfilling commitments, performance is improved, re-work, waste, and delays are eliminated and time, resources, and money are saved.

DIVERSITY:

Concord Building Group is committed to creating economic opportunities for all segments of our community. We place a high priority on developing relationships with and providing opportunities for qualified and high performing certified Minority Business Enterprises (MBE), Woman Owned Enterprises (WBE) and Veteran Owned / Service Disabled Veteran Owned Businesses and encourage participation through bid opportunities.

SUSTAINABILITY:

Concord Building Group believes in being good stewards of our environment by utilizing and promoting sustainable construction practices. Our in-house LEED Accredited Professionals understand the USGBC standards and practices of building energy-efficient, sustainable buildings. Through our working knowledge of sustainable practices, we possess the ability to assist our clients by incorporating green building techniques and/or achieving LEED Certification.
