New Construction Expert Services – Talent is the keystone to success
USA Construction Management, Inc. Owner’s Representative Team consists of degreed construction managers, registered and degreed architects, and many other seasoned professionals, all of whom have extensive construction experience in the private sector. With the aid of our qualified team, owners and developers will reap the benefits of a comprehensive approach. Our focus is on the four most critical aspects of any project: cost control, schedule, quality and safety. We have the ability to assist with everything from strategic master planning to post-construction warranty service.
Our strength comes from utilizing a team-based approach where team members work closely with the project's owner, architect and consultants to provide input during every phase of the construction process. Our team’s input starts at the conceptual stages of a project's design and continues through the completion of construction, when the project is operational and occupied. USA can provide input on budget, schedule, constructability, phasing, and logistical issues. As the design progresses, we can lead value engineering meetings with experienced subcontractors to create maximum value without compromising program, function or design intent. Our management team reviews project requirements with the owner and designer to ensure all products meet the desired standards.
Once construction starts, USA’s scheduling procedure requires, at a minimum, a monthly review of the Project’s status during the Project Team Meeting. The Project Management Team will address the project status, including current information on submittals, RFI’s and change orders with the entire team. USA’s goal is to ensure that the schedule completion date is met, and we have an excellent track record of on-time and on-budget projects completed throughout California and Nevada.
Expert Site Supervision
Excellent field supervision is another key to our success. Combined, our staff has over 100 years of experience working in the construction industry. Owners can feel confident knowing that each of our staff has successfully built multifamily projects for USA for an average of over 12 years. Our superintendents’ leadership abilities, thorough an advanced understanding of plans, product specifications and construction methods, are unparalleled. Combined with the foresight to find the most efficient method of completing project construction, these skills are the backbone to USA’s success. Each of our superintendents brings an unsurpassed knowledge of building, fire/life safety, and ADA (American with Disabilities) codes, while keeping the highest level of job site safety awareness. This sustained level of excellence has allowed USA to maintain strong relationships with our subcontractors, consultants and local jurisdictions.
These facets combine to create a team that is second to none and has allowed USA to complete over 9,000 units of high quality apartment homes using the most efficient methods while delivering all projects on time and on budget.
