Kerry's Master Project Schedule is used as a basis for status evaluation and critical path analysis. Progress updates are made on an ongoing manner. Each month a set of scheduling analysis reports and summaries are prepared as part of the progress report. Items that may be covered in this report include, but are not limited to:

At Kerry, we recognize that in today's fast paced and changing technological world, delivery times are critical. Kerry's design/build plan offers the Owner an integrated, single point of coordination for overall design and construction performance. This integration of design and construction creates innovation through collaboration by bringing all the experts to the table at the onset of the design.

Constructability and coordination of design and recommendation of construction options

Development of realistic budgets and construction schedules

Pre-qualification of experienced subcontractors

Evaluation of all bids and contract negotiations with subcontractors

ADA compliance

Security design

Kerry's Project Team provides clients design sketches, drawings and specifications for all aspects of a project. Once a final design is approved, Kerry begins to generate, with the applicable design disciplines, all the documentation necesary to convey the design and all specified architectural details, materials, finishes and selected furnishings to the subcontractors.

These documents are produced in CAD which results in fast, and more importantly, accurate production of the final construction drawings. Kerry coordinates all construction documents produced by the mechanical, electrical, plumbing and structural engineers, in addition to other consulting engineers.

Cost estimating involves working with the Client to develop realistic budgets to accomplish the client's goals. The cost estimate addresses engineering and design fees, permit costs, and construction costs. It also addresses the areas that might present budgetary concerns during the course of construction. Kerry also provides alternates to what has been asked for by the client, either to save time, money or provide for future needs now during the course of construction.

On design/build projects, once the final design is approved, Kerry Contractors will begin to generate, with the applicable design disciplines, all the documentation necessary to convey the design and all specified architectural details, materials, finishes and selected furnishings to the subcontractors. These documents are generally produced in CAD.

Permit processing involves Kerry meeting with City Building Departments to get all applicable building permits, for a particular project. This includes any plan check, building permit and special use permits, fees or taxes such as: school fees, water meter and vault fees, special encroachment permit fees, sewer facility/assessment fees, etc. All of these fees may be required to pull the building permit.

Whether designing and building from the ground up, or overseeing your project in the capacity of construction manager, Kerry provides the same intensive, pre-construction planning and streamlined construction process to deliver projects, always on time and on budget.
