Construction Services

Through clarification of an obligation to project team goals, HKCC Construction provides the project owner and architect with control of the project’s schedule, budget and quality. This is accomplished with studies, expert advice in construction means and methods and confirmation of the HKCC project team’s understanding of these goals with replicas, samples and investigations of existing product installations.

HKCC Construction trusts the identification of team goals to be one of preconstruction’s primaryobjectives. A draft schedule incorporating these goals with the anticipated construction activities andentitlement process displays logic relationships and anticipates potential team goal conflicts. Thepreconstruction schedule serves as the road map for design development decisions pertaining to projectscope, budget and procurement. Thus, the HKCC Construction approach offers a controlled, effective useof preconstruction resources consistent with the progress required to acquire government approvalsneeded to complete the project on time and under budget.

HKCC brings the discipline of preconstruction planning to a new standard of professionalism.The greatest opportunity to save money and time on a project is long before shovels hit theground. The More complex your project, the more critical the need for HKCC preconstructionplanning services.Our preconstruction teams work collaboratively with project owners and designers toestablish reliable budgets and realistic schedules based on up-to-the-minute marketexperience.In areas where labor is tight, project schedules are shared with labor unions to make surequalified tradesmen are available when needed. We rely on qualified minority-ownedcontractors to play vital roles on many of our projects.We build your project many times in the digital realm, performing value analysis andevaluating design for constructability. By sequentially mapping out the logistics of an entireproject well in advance of construction, you gain precise control of your project.

CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SERVICES

At HKCC construction management services provide assurance to the owner of a well-run, problem-free job site. The team of experienced construction professionals provides cost control, scheduling coordination, quality control and timely execution of plans throughout the project. HKCC’s knowledge of local building codes, life safety requirements, permitting and other local nuances.  In the construction process is critical in the project’s on-time and on-budget completion according to plan. The owner’s interest is represented throughout the project, from start to finish, to ensure schedule compliance, coordinate proper document control and optimize the owner’s investment in the project.

DESIGN/BUILD SERVICES

In design/build projects, owners contract directly with a single entity—the design-builder—to provide both design and construction services. Design/build services may be provided by a single firm, a team of experts or as a joint venture and can offer clients with a number of advantages. Planning, design, engineering and construction responsibilities are integrated under one single source, thereby facilitating project delivery by streamlining the overall process Design/build project success is accomplished by applying a comprehensive project team management delivery system. The HKCC Construction team’s experience covers a broad range of professional services, from consulting and feasibility studies, to the complete design, engineering and construction expertise to fully implement a project. The planners, designers, engineers and builders work in concert throughout the entire project towards the common goal of providing a quality product at a competitive price. Design-Build contracting is an alternative to awarding separate contracts for design and construction. The owner and contractor enter into a single contract wherein the contractor undertakes single source responsibility for the design and construction of the project. The architect responsible for the design of the project is under contract to the contractor and the responsibility for the project is vested in one entity — the design-build contractor. The contract amount may be determined in the same manner as a traditional construction contract. The most frequently used method of contracting in Design-Build situations is the Guaranteed Maximum Price technically acceptable.

CONSTRUCTION

Once the hand off is made from pre construction to our construction operations group, we hit the ground running. We are expert at site mobilization. All buildings begin in the ground and that’s where we get a head start by frequently self performing our concrete work. The construction of sizeable building components simultaneously on large projects – roads, buildings, water channels and canal construction, parking structures – requires us to organize our staff into separate area management teams headed by an area project manager. Each project component has its own time-line for structure through enclosure and its own finish schedule. Our employees are the best in the work. Our reputation makes it easier to attract high performing subcontractors. When subcontractors work for us, they know they have to “raise their game” to a higher level. As construction progresses, open lines of communication (such as monthly project status reports) with the owner and the design team keep the project moving forward. Weekly coordination meetings with subcontractors inform all participants of their roles in keeping the project on budget and on schedule. Expansion and renovation projects require us to work in spaces occupied by our clients’ employees and guests. We are ever mindful of the effect noise and congestion can have on a facility’s operation, so we work closely with our clients to minimize these impacts. Much of our success comes from the ability of our project supervisory teams to communicate to field forces the equally important values of safety and quality. When a project is complete and the ribbon is cut, we are proudest when owners speak of us as professional, cooperative and trustworthy. After all, it’s all about building relationships on trust.

POST CONSTRUCTION

At the end of the day, our clients expect to enjoy a problem-free building. Our post construction services group ensures that all contractual commitments have been encountered and outstanding issues resolved at project closeout. We assist in warrantee inspections and quality control monitoring. In addition, we prepare operations and maintenance manuals, train end-users, and respond to issues that may arise after occupancy.

CONSTRUCTION AND MASTER PLAN ESTIMATES

We will prepare a project construction budget as soon as major project requirements have been identified, and update such budget periodically for the Owner’s approval as the development of the Construction Documents proceeds. We will prepare an estimate based on a quantity survey of the Construction Documents for approval by the Owner. We will also update and refine this estimate for the Owner’s approval as the development of the Construction Documents proceeds and advise the Owner and the Architect if it appears that the project budget will not be met and make recommendations to the Owner for corrective action.

VALUE ENGINEERING

We offer Value Engineering and Value Analysis that are unmatched in the Construction. Our creative approach, combined with our Team’s professionals specializing in structural, mechanical, electrical and logistics/scheduling disciplines, will achieve maximum value to any project through alternative design solutions. The significant savings realized by the Design Team in this process are provided without changes to the fundamental project features. To be most effective, Value Engineering must be performed during the schematic and design development phases. The cost of changes increase substantially as a project progresses in the design phase, and savings become even more difficult to realize once construction has begun.

SCHEMATIC DESIGN PHASE

  • Provide compatibility and cost analysis of various structural systems
  • Assess mechanical and electrical systems and distribution
  • Establish a base line budget based on the development team’s determination of the project’s essential features
  • Examine various building, roads, canals and dams elements relative to project cost and schedule

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT

  • Determine the effect of current market conditions on various system components, Construct ability, costs and procurement durations
  • Analyze elements unique to the project for contract ability and alternative methods
  • Review interior and exterior finish materials and systems for essential function and cost
  • Evaluate overall critical path constructability and schedule

CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES

We will recommend the division of work into separate contracts to permit phasing and to assure that all work is assigned to the proper subcontractor for the best possible price and with minimum interface requirements.

LEAD TIME IDENTIFICATION FOR EARLY PURCHASING

We assess construction markets, identify potential construction delay areas, and recommend alternate design or construction options.

LEAD TIME IDENTIFICATION FOR MATERIALS

We will present you with a list of materials and equipment that could cause construction delays if bid within general construction packages and advise on the pre-purchase of these items Schedule items listed below are representative of the activities identified for the Project Team.

AUTOMATED CPM SCHEDULE

Maintain for specific project strategy agreed upon, indicating bid packages, responsibility of all consultants and owner in decision-making and production.

PROCUREMENT SCHEDULE

Establish schedules for bidding, shop drawing review, fabrication, assembly and delivery should the project team elect to procure long lead materials before bidding construction contracts.

THE DESIGN-BUILD PROCESS

Design-Build contracting is an alternative to awarding separate contracts for design and for construction. The owner and contractor enter into a single contract wherein the contractor undertakes single source responsibility for the design and construction of the project. The design is developed by a designer under contract with the contractor. The responsibility for the project is vested in one entity — the design-build contractor. The contract amount may be determined in the same manner as a traditional construction contract. The most frequently used method of contracting in Design-Build situations is the Guaranteed Maximum Price format.
