Preconstruction
For over 100 years, Woodward has served as a design-builder and trusted partner to business owners and developers, as well as architects and engineers. Collaboration is part of our culture, problem-solving is our passion, and we believe success is best enjoyed as a team.
Our approach to the preconstruction process has been refined over the past century and is guided by three key principles:
Team Collaboration
We believe that successful projects stem from a unified effort among the Owner, Architect, and Contractor. Our practices foster open communication, clearly define roles and responsibilities, and identify shared goals, challenges, and solutions, ensuring everyone is aligned throughout the project.
Scope Verification
Our aim is to maintain your design intent while adhering to budget constraints. We facilitate a collaborative exchange between Woodward, our clients, and their design teams to ensure that the project meets its programmatic goals, as well as budget, schedule, quality, and long-term maintenance requirements.
Budget and Schedule Accuracy
Recognizing the urgency of effective fund utilization, we work diligently as your preconstruction partner to establish and refine the budget and schedule from the earliest design phases. This proactive approach helps identify potential cost overruns, enabling us to develop solution-driven strategies that maximize value and inform your decision-making.
By adhering to these principles, we ensure a streamlined preconstruction process that sets the foundation for successful project outcomes.
