Construction

Pre-construction services align project teams around budgets, schedules, and constructability before work begins. RDH supports owners, developers, and contractors in identifying sequencing conflicts, cost risks, and field constraints early, helping projects move into construction with clearer documentation, more accurate pricing, and a stronger foundation for coordination.

• Cost planning and estimation connects enclosure and system choices with construction budgets, helping align design decisions with cost control strategies.
• Constructability review identifies installation challenges and phasing issues that could affect quality or timeline, evaluating material access, trade coordination, and site staging to inform project sequencing.
• Preliminary schedule development defines key milestones and critical path items to support realistic, trackable timelines.
• Bid process management organizes competitive bidding, prequalification, and proposal review to streamline contractor selection.
• Contract award support reviews contractor submissions and scopes to identify gaps, ambiguities, or procurement risks before award.

Construction phase services provide field-based oversight, quality control consulting, and budget and schedule management from groundbreaking through substantial completion. RDH acts as a technical advocate for owners and design teams, helping maintain construction quality, reduce RFIs, and keep projects aligned with performance goals and delivery milestones.

• Site supervision and coordination provides on-site oversight for installation sequencing, trade interface, and real-time problem solving.
• Budget and schedule oversight tracks actual progress against baseline budgets and timelines to detect and respond to issues early.
• Site safety oversight supports site-specific safety planning, compliance documentation, and contractor communication.
• Contract administration reviews change orders, facilitates OAC meetings, and manages submittals and pay applications.
• Occupant engagement consulting coordinates communication and phasing logistics when construction takes place in occupied buildings.
• Quality assurance and field review conducts field observations, documents installation quality, and provides feedback aligned with project specifications.

Post-construction services support building closeout and performance review, helping owners transition from construction into operations. RDH coordinates warranty tracking, lien documentation, and post-occupancy assessment to close out projects cleanly and identify early operational issues before they become larger problems.

• Warranty review and management tracks warranty items, coordinates repairs, and manages communication between owners and contractors through the deficiency period.
• Lien release coordination verifies final payment status and reviews lien waivers to address financial and legal risk at project close.
• Post-occupancy review and support conducts walkthroughs and performance assessments to identify early operational issues and gather occupant feedback.
