Gaining a thorough understanding of the specific needs of a client's business is vital to a successful project. T&W is committed to making this happen.
We help clients look at overall issues such as aesthetics, functionality, cost, and schedule, as well as details like air quality, lighting, materials, and plans for expansion. By offering feasibility study services, we can be a valuable partner during the site selection process to help evaluate the cost impact of physical characteristics of the site for your specific use and look to identify unforeseen development cost issues. By providing review of local development ordinances, engineering standards, and government regulation requirements and certifications; and by providing preliminary site layout design studies according to your requirements, we can help head off unexpected expenses. Early input and feedback into the cost impact of design and facility features and options, gives you the reliable information you need to make informed, reasonable, and value focused decisions.
In many cases, we recommend the design-build approach, which gives the owner the greatest degree of control over and education about costs and schedule early in the planning stage. You can only realize savings on your project during the design stages. Once the plans are done and the project begins, savings are only realized through sacrifice of facility features and benefits to keep the project in budget. Early involvement of an experienced construction professional is key in making good early decisions in the planning and design process before tens of thousands of dollars are spent in design and engineering fees, with diminished opportunity to impact the final cost and long term value of your project.
The sooner you involve T&W in the development process, the sooner you have the opportunity to save!
