Project Management
A project may be well conceived and adequately finances, but if all aspects of the project are not expertly integrated and managed, it may overrun the budget, fail to meet the schedule, or fall short in technical quality.

We also are experts at resolving conflicts and identifying issues before they become problems. Our teams focus on the overall picture, establishing priorities and coordinating activities and participants to ensure quality projects that are delivered safely, on time and within budget.
Design & Build
First Core’s role as a design-build contractor is a multidimensional one. Initially, the client will work with First Core’s design-build team to identify project needs. In the conceptual design stage, much of the effort will focus on the overall scope of the project such as square footage, footprint, layout, and special and unique needs. As the design phase progresses and enter into the construction phase, the documents become more specific and detailed. The project manager and estimator will join the team to ensure a smooth transition through all phases of the construction process.
One unique as aspect of the design/ build method is the estimating and construction can actually begin while design is still underway. this provides for seamless value engineering and opportunities for substantial time savings. As the construction progresses, First Core will maintain open lines of communication with the owner, so that they are fully aware of all progress and schedules related to thier project.
