Project managers and construction administrators serve as liaisons between the client and contractor, and manage the entire bidding and construction process through to occupancy. They assist in bid preparation and procurements and bid evaluations, as well as promoting the use of local craftspeople and labor. The project management and construction administration professionals are available to answer questions, clarify documentation and lead construction meetings. They are on-site on a regular basis, reporting on progress, schedules and any unforeseen changes. This step employs the three-legged stool mindset, positioning contractors, architects and owners as equal partners in the development of the space.
