We share our expertise and experience with developers, planners, architects and historic preservationists as independent consultants. In fact, the preconstruction phase of our construction delivery process places us directly in a consulting role on each of our projects.

What is the best approach to the creation of an architecturally designed custom home? What strategies lead to the greatest likelihood of satisfying the highest expectations of a homeowner contemplating the design and construction of a new home? Our answer is a partnering approach, one that creates a team of owner, architect and construction manager, before pencil ever touches paper.

Main Street Building Group's Construction Management Agreement, while a single document, is functionally divided into two phases: The Preconstruction Phase and the Construction Phase. During the Preconstruction phase, the construction manager acts as a consultant to the owner, assisting the owner and designers by providing review of the design for the purpose of value engineering, assessment of constructability, and cost management.
