Preconstruction

What is Preconstruction?
Traditionally, preconstruction involves performing preliminary planning and engineering in order to define the project, identify potential issues, and analyze cost impacts. At DeRosa our preconstruction will ultimately help the owner determine cost impacts, identify all materials, identify cost savings and value engineering substitutions if needed. Preconstruction defines the scope of work enough to determine a cost and schedule for the project.

The main outcome of preconstruction work is a firm project scope, schedule, and cost estimate for the owner. The preconstruction process helps our clients identify trade specific costs and what the client is getting for their money and identify opportunities for value engineering.
