BEC Innovations, we believe that a well-planned construction project is a successful construction project. That’s why our preconstruction services are designed to set the stage for a smooth, efficient, and cost-effective building process. By addressing potential challenges early, we ensure that your project runs on time and within budget.

What Are Preconstruction Services?

Preconstruction services involve thorough planning, budgeting, and coordination before breaking ground. This phase helps prevent costly delays and unexpected expenses. By working closely with homeowners, contractors, and vendors, we develop a comprehensive plan that ensures a seamless construction experience.

Two Ways to Approach Preconstruction

Our preconstruction phase can be structured in one of two ways:

  1. Time and Material Basis – A flexible approach that allows us to refine the project scope and budget as we progress through making decisions alongside you. The time that you’d be charged would be for our team and subcontractors to spend the time needed to produce a more concrete estimate by paying for the time to focus on the project. 
  2. Lump Sum Based on a Percentage of the Proposed Budget – A predictable, fixed-cost option that provides clarity on preconstruction expenses upfront. Traditionally, this percentage would be 1-5% of the construction budget, depending on the size and scope of the tasks.

The Key Benefits of Preconstruction Services

Investing in preconstruction planning leads to better project outcomes. During this phase, we:

  • Refine the project design to ensure feasibility and functionality
  • Manage subcontractor and vendor coordination to streamline communication
  • Develop a more accurate initial estimate to prevent budget overruns
  • Identify potential risks and mitigate them before construction begins

Why Preconstruction Sets the Stage for Success

At BEC Innovations, we prefer to proceed with construction under a fixed-price proposal. This approach provides our clients with financial transparency and peace of mind. A well-executed preconstruction phase allows us to refine the project scope, minimize risks, and ensure an efficient construction process.

By investing in preconstruction services, you’re not just planning a build—you’re ensuring a stress-free, on-time, and on-budget construction project. If you’re looking for reliable preconstruction and construction services, contact BEC Innovations today to get started!
