Kaplan Consult provides in-depth management and supervision of all of its projects, with hands-on involvement by the company’s principals and project supervisors from start to finish, Kaplan Consult also provides added value to clients with its ability to self-perform structural and architectural concrete work, including forming, placing and finishing. With general contracting, Kaplan Consult always operates as the contractor.
GENERAL CONSTRUCTION SERVICES
A project is bid based on the expectations a client communicates to an architect. Kaplan Consult takes the drawings and specifications, involves our estimating staff as well as a large number of subcontractors and suppliers and produces the best cost and schedule for the project. All the numbers are based on the plans that are provided. If there are points of disagreement as the project moves ahead due to changes or different interpretations of the plan, Kaplan Consult works with the client and the architect to resolve them. General contracting has a potentially adversarial side, which is avoided with newer style delivery systems.
Kaplan Consult’s process encompasses an information system for the project to coordinate the clients and architect’s goals. This comprehensive system includes numerous components ranging from scheduling, cost control, quality control,
procurement, billing, project meetings, project commissioning, project close-out and warranty management.
