Professional Services 

Today, companies focus solely on their core competencies and have streamlined their workforce. To achieve this, they often divest themselves of the people that handle their peripheral areas, such as construction. 

Davis & Associates’ knowledge and expertise in all aspects of building fills that void. That is why whatever contracting arrangements an owner chooses; they can be assured of topnotch quality with Davis & Associates. 

Pre-Construction Consulting 

We carefully LISTEN to the owner’s needs so we can make well thought-through recommendations that will help the owner choose the delivery system that is right for them. The goal is to employ a delivery system that satisfies the overall project goals and exceeds the owner’s expectations… on time and within budget. 

Construction Management 

Construction Management is a professional service that applies effective management techniques to the planning, design, and construction of a project from inception to completion for the purpose of controlling time, cost, and quality. This management system is specifically created to promote the successful execution of capital projects for owners. Few owners maintain the staff resources necessary to pay close, continuing attention to every detail of these projects, many of which are highly complex, yet these details can "make or break" a project. 

As a professional Construction Management firm, Davis & Associates acts as an extension of the owner's staff by managing the entire project through pre-planning, design, construction, engineering, and management expertise. Through this process, Davis & Associates can assure the best possible project outcome, no matter what type of project delivery method is utilized. 

General Contracting 

Davis & Associates got its start as a General Contractor, and still today deploys its professional staff of tradesmen to construct your project. A project bid is based on the expectations an owner communicates to an architect. Davis & Associates takes the drawings and specifications, involves our estimating staff as well as a large number of subcontractors and suppliers and produces the best cost and schedule for the project. 

All the numbers are based on the plans that are provided. Where applicable, Davis & Associates may offer suggestions that might simplify the construction process, resulting in cost savings to the owner. In these instances, as in all Owner/Contractor relationships, the final decision always lies with the owner and/or their representative. 

Davis & Associates self-performs the following Specialties Services: 

• Building Restoration 

• Carpentry (Rough & Finish) 

• Concrete 

• Door & Hardware Installation 

• General Conditions Work 

• Selective Demolition 

Program Management 

Program Management is the practice of professional Construction Management applied to a capital improvement program of one or more projects from inception to completion. 

Comprehensive construction management services are used to integrate the different facets of the construction process - planning, design, procurement, construction, and activation - for the purpose of providing standardized technical and management expertise on each project. 

Design-Build 

Design/build has many advantages. 
It offers the benefits of Construction Management and relieves the owner of risks associated with construction. Under this delivery system, the owner contracts with Davis & Associates for the services that are to be rendered, and we, in turn, hold contracts with the architect as well as all subcontractors. Because the architect works directly with Davis & Associates, we assume total responsibility for the design, engineering and management of the plans, and supervision of all members of the construction team to ensure quality construction that is delivered on time and within budget. 

The design organization and construction team work together during initial planning to spearhead substantial schedule savings through the overlap of design with construction. With design/build, the owner not only gets outstanding construction services, he/she gets peace of mind, allowing them to focus on their core business competencies. 

Turn-Key 

If Design/Build delivers peace of mind, then full service (Turn Key) really lets the client sleep well at night. Turn Key covers the whole program. This not only includes design and building of the project, it also encompasses design, procurement, installation and startup of all manufacturing processes and equipment. As with Design/Build, the architect, engineers, and all subcontractors report directly to Davis & Associates. Davis & Associates assumes total responsibility for getting the project done. 

Facilities Maintenance 

As your Facilities Maintenance contractor, Davis & Associates enters into a term agreement with the owner, acting as General Contractor to provide maintenance services within a particular scope and/or dollar threshold. In this arrangement, we are an on-call arm of your maintenance staff, coordinating the trades necessary to manage all your facilities’ maintenance needs. One advantage of this type of agreement is that we develop a relationship and rapport with your facility working on a contractual maintenance schedule, and can in most instances, prevent exorbitant and untimely repairs that are a result of wear and tears that come from normal occupancy/usage and neglect. We make your building our business so that you can focus solely on doing your business.
