Preconstruction Services for Smarter Project Planning
Building the Foundation for Success
In the construction industry, success depends on careful planning before work begins on the construction site. At Quarry View Building Group, our preconstruction services provide the structure and clarity needed to move forward with confidence. We work with project owners, construction managers, architects, engineers, and developers to guide a construction project through the preconstruction phase — one step at a time.
Our approach focuses on giving you a clear picture of what your project will involve before actual construction begins. With decades of experience across industries and project types, our preconstruction team helps eliminate uncertainty and reduce risk.
What Are Preconstruction Services?
Preconstruction services encompass everything that happens before building starts. This stage includes feasibility studies, cost estimating, scheduling, site analysis, value engineering, and more. It ensures the design aligns with the client’s vision, budget, and timeline.
In short, it’s the foundation of a successful construction project.
Whether you’re using a design-bid-build method, design-build, or another approach, starting with professional preconstruction services gives your team the tools to make informed decisions. It protects your investment and supports the project throughout its entire lifecycle.
Key Elements of the Preconstruction Process
The preconstruction process includes multiple steps, each contributing to an accurate plan for how the project will be built, how much it will cost, and how long it will take.
Here’s how Quarry View Building Group approaches preconstruction:
Feasibility Studies
Before investing time and money into a proposed project, you need answers. Will the plan work? Is it worth pursuing? What are the risks? A feasibility study answers these questions early — before you commit significant resources. Quarry View Building Group helps owners and developers conduct feasibility studies that offer a clear picture of a project’s viability from every angle: financial, technical, legal, operational, and market-related.
Scheduling Planning
Construction scheduling planning is the backbone of a successful construction project. At Quarry View Building Group, we use proven scheduling methods to establish clear project timelines, minimize risk, and keep work moving without costly delays. Our process blends experience, logic, and the right tools to support project managers, construction teams, and stakeholders from start to finish.
Value Engineering
At Quarry View Building Group, our value engineering construction approach helps clients find practical ways to reduce costs without sacrificing quality, safety, or performance. Our value engineering team works closely with clients, architects, and engineers to identify cost-effective solutions throughout the entire construction process.
GMP Development (Guaranteed Maximum Price)
GMP Development — or Guaranteed Maximum Price development — is a cornerstone of effective construction management. At Quarry View Building Group, we help clients set a realistic GMP during preconstruction, giving project owners clarity, control, and confidence before a shovel ever hits the ground.
Permitting Assistance
Before any construction project begins, it’s critical to ensure all necessary permits and approvals are in place. At Quarry View Building Group, we provide straightforward permitting assistance to help clients move smoothly through the permitting process. Whether you’re launching a new business, planning a major facility upgrade, or repurposing existing land, our team offers experienced guidance every step of the way.
The Role of the Preconstruction Team
A strong preconstruction team brings together project managers, estimators, engineers, and construction managers. At Quarry View Building Group, we assign team members based on the project’s complexity and specific needs.
This team supports the client from design development through permitting and cost analysis. They coordinate with architects, engineers, and general contractors to align the design with the budget and scope.
The goal is to prevent rework, reduce changes, and deliver a successful project.
Planning for Each Stage of Construction
The preconstruction phase prepares the project for every stage of construction — from mobilization to final inspections. At each point, we support key deliverables:
Schematic Design
Establish initial scope and project budget
Construction Documents
Update pricing with subcontractors, provide value engineering as needed
Bidding
Design Development
Design Development’ update to ‘Refine scope, perform full pricing exercise including subcontractor participation as needed. Provide constructability review
Construction
Transition plans to the field team
Addressing Challenges Early
The earlier we identify risks, the easier they are to manage. Our team focuses on key risk factors, including:
- Schedule conflicts
- Long lead-time materials
- Poor site access
- Coordination issues
By solving these problems early, we reduce costs and delays during construction.
We also help forecast cash flow and align it with your financing plan — giving owners more control throughout the entire project lifecycle.
Collaboration Is Key
Preconstruction services depend on collaboration. Quarry View Building Group brings together the owner, designer, consultants, and contractors to work as a team.
We support the use of building information modeling (BIM) and digital tools to share data and improve coordination.
This approach keeps everyone informed and aligned as the project moves forward.
