ABOUT US BUILDING BUILDING SERVICES PROJECTS CIVIL PROJECTS CAREERS DOING BUSINESS WITH MCM GREEN CONSTRUCTION SAFETY QUALITY PRESS MCM > BUILDING > BUILDING SERVICES BUILDING SERVICES PRE-CONSTRUCTION Important building details are developed long before construction begins on a facility. Having a construction manager on board early on can make a huge difference in the success of a project. A collaborative team can help make the necessary decisions about the project’s design intent, schedule, budget, materials and more. A strong pre-construction plan will set the tone for the entire project. Let MCM help you build the best facility right from the start. Value Engineering Value Engineering (VE) involves three initial questions: (1) What is the item’s function, (2) what does the item cost, and (3) are there other ways of performing the function at the same or a reduced cost? Since 1983 MCM’s Value Engineering services have helped clients save a substantial sum per project; lowering construction costs and providing a larger return on their investment. But the value methodology isn’t just about reducing unnecessary costs. It’s a consensus-building, problem-solving tool that improves organizational decision making and productivity Building Information Modeling BIM is a useful tool we offer our clients in order to assess conflicts and develop potential value engineering and constructability solutions early in the process. We have in-house personnel trained in the latest software, who can fully develop a 3D model of your project to help visualize how it will be built, including the sequence of construction, resources and schedule required.
