Imagine you’re heading out for the long-awaited conference at which you are presenting on behalf of your organization. Your prep is long completed, coffee in hand, and you’re already priming for tonight’s dinner with the partners. You begin the short 20-minute drive, and suddenly your tire pops without warning. “Are you kidding me?” you think – just now remembering that your spare is still at home, leaving you without even a donut to make the remainder of the drive.
In your frustration and panic you almost forget the AAA card sitting in your wallet. You make the call, and within minutes Roadside Assistance is there to efficiently take care of the situation, getting you back on the road and enroute to the conference with time to spare.
In a nutshell, an Owner’s Representative functions like that AAA membership. Could you have taken care of the tire situation yourself? Surely… But given your time constraints, high priority plans for the day, and stress level, employing experts to take care of the situation made for a more successful outcome.
A qualified Owner’s Representative protects the owner’s interest every step of the way, ensuring that your organization maximizes its benefit during high priority projects and beyond.
A capital construction project is a major investment intended to last for 25+ years. Expectations of the space and its use are high – will it truly support the business as intended? Will projected revenue increases flounder or prevail?
Your Owner’s Representative is more than a firm who keeps you in line with budget and schedule expectations, rather they act as a true advocate and advisor from evaluation through occupancy. They understand your operations and goals, keeping that at the forefront of your project. With proven management tools and solution-based leadership, your Owner’s Representative is a true organizational partner. Their expertise, leadership, and investment in your goals produce the highest quality outcomes for your projects and future growth plans.
How do you find a true advocate and advisor in an Owner’s Representative? Identifying the correct partner for your organization is crucial. To ensure your project is in the best hands from start to finish look for the following capabilities and qualifications:
To truly gain both project and organizational success, you must select a partner with expertise in your industry. They will be able to foresee issues during every part of the project lifecycle because they have seen and solved those issues before. They will also understand your operations and potentially even be able to give you advice on how to make your project more efficient to optimize your operations. By selecting a partner with expertise in every project phase, your organization is supported throughout design, construction, and beyond.
In projects of all sizes and scopes your key to success is anticipation and quick, decisive problem-solving. Your Owner’s Representative will leverage their experience and years of specialized learnings to quickly identify the best route of action for any challenges that arise throughout your project. These expert advantages drive project schedule and protect your budget from unexpected costs.
For the highest quality construction outcomes, you need an Owner’s Representative with a strong understanding of the current regulatory landscape. Ongoing understanding of building codes, zoning, and permitting are essential for ensuring your space is compliant and completed in a timely manner.
Incorporating DE&I into construction projects proves to be a key differentiator in highly successful outcomes. Studies have shown that there is a correlative relationship between business performance and diversity. Diverse teams are normally more innovative, and bring multiple perspectives to a problem which makes them better problem solvers.
