Preconstruction
Preconstruction takes place at the initial phase of the construction process, from the moment the project is conceptualized. It’s the phase where our client’s project is assessed for feasibility, constructability, and streamlined for construction. Preconstruction equips our clients with the tools to cultivate informed business decisions that best meet their goals, budget, and schedule. Our number one goal is to educate every owner on the complexities of their construction project, so they feel confident with each decision they make. We are an advocate for your project and will equip you with the tools to succeed. We keep the vision of your project intact while suggesting cost-effective solutions to provide added value.
Possessing both engineering and construction experience, Birdgroup works through real-world solutions for owners, contractors, engineers, and architects. Decades of experience in providing an array of Preconstruction and Consulting services allow Birdgroup to uniquely analyze each project on a case by case basis. In our opinion, Preconstruction is the most important and cost-saving stage in the entire process because we have the time to explore different solutions before making any final decisions.
Our reputation for effective and honest communication throughout Preconstruction is incomparable. It’s an invaluable resource because it can be the crossroads of make or break for any project. At the same time, we ensure we manage within your budget and schedule. From concept to completion, we support clients by facilitating the construction process and mitigating any challenges that may arise along the way.

Value Engineering & Constructing
Once project goals are established, specific construction means and methods are identified and optimized, we begin facilitating Value Engineering to achieve great client investment value. We collaborate with our team of experts to pinpoint where we may be able to cut costs and add value. For some clients, Value Engineering is most constructive to find out where we can save time and others it’s to see where they can get more bang for their buck in design. Trade specific analyses are performed to determine cost savings and critical methods of construction to best serve the client’s needs and the vision of the project.
Feasibility Study & Site Analysis
Birdgroup utilizes decades of experience to conduct Feasibility Studies and Site Analyses. Due diligence is performed, coupled with thorough assessment of site conditions to assist in determining project feasibility. We use this opportunity to make sure we outline any pitfalls or blind spots your project may have. Having a thorough understanding of the fundamental feasibility of your project is invaluable. Birdgroup takes great pride in providing upfront, honest communication regarding any project. Birdgroup’s comprehensive approach adds value, allowing clients to make an informed decision before signing on the dotted line.

Delivery is achieved by tracking project both costs and critical path during construction, enabling Birdgroup to maintain scheduled milestones and costs.
