Quandel ConstructionVirtual Design & Construction

Keeping Projects on Track
See digital models of your buildings and job sites before construction even starts. Our Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) team focuses on creating a collaborative environment with our clients to deliver customized and innovative construction solutions. We use the latest technology in our VDC process to streamline the delivery of our projects in an integrated and Lean approach. This approach allows for enhanced communication, efficient collaboration with our trade partners, and the effective use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) expertise for overall project coordination.

BIM is a digital representation of a structure’s physical and functional properties. This technology enables us to design a project virtually, track progress, optimize processes, minimize waste, and validate installations. This allows for improved quality as well as a decrease in risk as workflow becomes more efficient. By using BIM during the design process, we can identify conflicts, address coordination issues, and create clear metrics against the program’s goals.

We work together with stakeholders to determine optimal outcomes. We sit down with your team and develop a BIM execution plan for the project. We approach BIM as a process to mitigate risks. During this process, we use digital tools to create virtual models of buildings. The model acts as a single source of information containing existing condition details, proposed designs, and coordinated work plans during construction. These digital models are then evaluated before ground is broken, allowing project teams to optimize building construction. Through 3D digital modeling, stakeholders can see and address issues before they ever become a reality, preventing costly mistakes during construction. By integrating forward-thinking designers and contractors into the BIM process, conflicts are detected and corrected quickly saving you money and time.

Quandel ConstructionConstruction Management

Knowledgeable Construction Partners
We construct your projects on time and within budget while meeting your needs. At Quandel Construction, we have the experience and capabilities to manage various project types. Our management style comes down to collaborating effectively with the right people. We take a client-centered collaborative approach to each project we manage with a focus on listening, communicating with integrity, and adding value.

Our construction management project approach focuses on areas of responsibility that revolve around project management, cost management, quality management, project/contract administration, and project safety programs. We are an extension of your staff. From preconstruction through project closeout, our focus is to finish your project on time, within budget, and to your satisfaction. Using experienced team members and continuous project monitoring, we set a foundation for a successful construction management process.

Ranging from building core and shell design to construction and interior fit-out, we provide clients with early cost input and accelerated construction opportunities. Our experience and local market knowledge add value while delivering efficiencies from previous projects to your project.

Alternative Delivery Methods

A Better Way to Build
Choosing the best delivery method for your project does not have to be a difficult task. Depending on your project needs, desire for involvement in decisions, and risk tolerance, there is a delivery system that is right for your project. Some considerations when determining your project approach include:

Is it a strictly cost-driven approach?
Is it a schedule-driven approach?
Who will hold the risk?
Who will ultimately be accountable?

Design-Bid-Build
A linear design-bid-build process where the Owner selects an architect/engineer to fully document the project criteria and design prior to bidding. The lowest responsive and responsible general contractor (single prime) is awarded the contract. Bids are based on the original plans; any changes to the plans and specifications are administered by change order above and beyond the bid.

Construction Manager At-Risk
A contractor is hired through a best value selection process before or during the design phase. The Owner, architect, and construction manager are a collaborative team from planning through construction with a primary emphasis on integrating design and construction. The construction manager provides a guaranteed maximum price (GMP). The construction manager solicits competitive bids from prequalified subcontractors holding the subcontracts for construction.

Construction Manager Agency
A construction manager is hired as an Owner’s agent through a qualifications-based selection process during the design phase. The construction manager provides estimates before or during design, assists with bidding, and coordinates prime contractors during construction. The Owner bids and holds the construction contracts. The construction manager agent is paid based on hourly rates or a fee. This is in addition to the general contractor or prime contractor fee.

Design-Build
An Owner contracts and collaborates with a single design-builder for the project. The design-build team includes the architect, engineer, and construction manager. The design-build team complete the design and a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) is provided. The design-build team solicits bids from prequalified subcontractors and holds the subcontracts for construction.

Integrated Project Delivery
The integrated project delivery (IPD) process allows the Owner, design, and construction team to use information, such as incorporating building information modeling, in an integrated environment, to increase efficiency and support new ways of working. Based on Lean construction principles, IPD is the reliance on knowledge integration that adds value through maximizing efficiency and collaboration of those involved. Given that IPD encompasses collaborative processes that rely on the collective expertise of the extended project stakeholders (including designers, builders, subcontractors, and owners), the effects of design decisions can be easily understood, increasing the level of project success.

Performance ConstructionSelf-Performing Workforce

In-House Trades
We take steps to employ and properly train the best craftspeople. In addition to our construction management services, we are able to provide craftspeople as part of our services. Their trade-specific experience leads to the successful completion of our projects.

We offer a talented team of craftspeople that can be called upon for a range of projects throughout a construction project. Our team of carpenters, drywallers, painters, and concrete finishers can complete your project with a quality and efficient degree of work. They provide an excellent level of service and craftsmanship to hold the project to quality standards.

Being a self-performing general contractor allows us to better control the life cycle of your project, preconstruction through closeout. Our skilled craftspeople complete construction activities from demolition to drywall. Our scopes include, but are not limited to, demolition, concrete, interiors (including drywall, doors, frames and hardware, casework), rough and finish carpentry, other specialties scopes. Together with our trade partners, our firm’s self-perform teams bring industry-leading safety, craftsmanship, and quality to every project.

Our self-performing capabilities add value to our clients through cost savings, competitive scheduling, and quality. Over the years, we have built a talented team of craft workers. Our self-perform crews have worked together on project after project, which produce quality products through efficient methods. When our own forces are responsible for work on site, we deliver a quality project on time, and on budget.

Self-performing is not the right call for every project but having a self-perform contractor affords many options and added value. Even without self-performing on a project, having self-perform knowledge and experience improves the ability to assess subcontractors’ work and hold them accountable in terms of staffing, scheduling, estimating, and quality. With a value for self-performing work, we are not simply a construction manager, but we offers our clients the expertise of a true builder on every project.
