Building Analytics provides a full range of Construction Monitoring for the commercial real estate industry. Whether you need us to review documents before construction or perform construction observation we have the expertise and experience.

Pre-construction Analysis - Evaluate the proposed budget, improvements, and arrangements for construction. This includes:

• Document Review for completeness, constructability,
  appropriateness, and adequacy of the construction quality control program. Review of available design documents, plans and specifications to assess whether they are sufficiently complete to construct the project.
• Budget Review to verify the feasibility of completing the work at the designated cost and on the timetable forecast. This includes an analysis of the construction budget, schedule of values, and construction schedule.

Construction Observation - Monitor the quality, cost, and rate of completion for the project as it is constructed. This includes:

• Construction Quality Review through both on-site visits and the review of essential documentation to confirm that the general contractor is building the project in accordance with the construction documents, both as to completeness and to the quality of work and materials.
• Construction Budget Review on a monthly basis to assess that funds required are in line with percentages of work completed and that there are sufficient funds remaining in the budget to complete the project.
• Monthly Pay Request Review consisting of the recommendation or approval of the disbursement of funds. The following is a checklist of items to be performed on a monthly basis:
  • Observe status of the project and provide written and photographic documentation.
  • Review pay requests and retainage amounts.
  • Assess the percentage of completion and calculate sufficiency of remaining budget.
  • Assess that the percentage completed in the draw schedule is accurate.
  • Recommend payment

• Project Close Out when construction is complete includes a final punch- list and assembly of pertinent documentation including warranties and instruction manuals.
