Integrated Program Management
(Examples: University of Nevada, Las Vegas, University of Maine, St. Christopher's School)
As an integrated program manager, B&D works more in a support fashion to leverage the skills and experience that the owner already possesses. For example, some of our past clients already have a facilities or physical plant department capable of managing large or complex projects; however, the department may lack a familiarity with the particular building type in question, since many of the "quality of life" facilities in which B&D specializes are only built once in a generation by any particular owner. Our clients therefore benefit from the use of our technical expertise on these building types to ensure that the project is built based on the detailed program and specifications. While we are able to provide any of our full-service program management services, as an integrated program manager our primary responsibilities would include:
- Program Compliance
- Design Review
- Assistance in Negotiating the A/E Contract)
- Assistance in Determining the Construction Method Used (e.g. CM at Risk, etc.)
- FF&E Coordination
- Value Engineering
- Contract Administration
- Contractor Selection
