Construction Management
Our effective application of both engineering and analysis ensure that contract durations are built on solid foundations of logic, not guesswork. We use state-of-the-art technology to help our clients implement construction technologies on their projects. Knowledge of modern management practices and software, combined with real-world experience of the design, procurement and construction processes, enables us to see a project through to a successful completion.
CPM Scheduling/Project Control
It all comes down to risk versus reward. You can rely on an old fashioned paper schedule and hope for the best, or you can rely on the technology, services and experience of Turino. We will implement a dependable schedule that will guide you through the process and document every step along the way. We provide different points of view, lessons learned from past work, and approaches you may not know or even think about. And our team has experience with complex state, federal and international construction projects which allow us to identify key issues and make real-time adjustments.
Pre-Construction Planning/Constructability Reviews
We’re proficient at proactively addressing complicated issues and can guide you in determining the best approach to your project’s scope of work, and the management of delays and claims.
Submittal & RFI Systems
Submittals and RFIs must pass through many hands before their evaluation is complete. As a result, it can be difficult for project team members to coordinate their opinions on the submittal and determine who is responsible for reviewing it at a given time. Our systems allow our clients to track and record status, keeping all stakeholders involved throughout the review process, consequently reducing cycle times, project completion times and labor costs. We reduce communication breakdown and keep projects moving. Owners and their representatives can quickly react to any situation minimizing delays and providing timely accurate direction.
Bidding Systems & Software
We know that the bidding process can be cumbersome, and time consuming. And if you’re using a paper system – it can be nothing short of a nightmare. We can provide a seamless transition from paper to electronic bidding – while providing measurable ROI at each step. Our experience and phased approach streamlines and approves your existing advertising and award process. Our web-based applications are used to generate engineer’s estimates, bid proposals, contract quantities and contract addenda. During the open bid process, the system will automatically open bids and calculate the low bidder. Bid tabulations and analysis reports provide over 35 snapshot views.
Claims & Claims Avoidance
Today’s construction industry is defined by shortened project durations, increasingly complex projects and multiple stakeholders with controlling interests. We work with our clients to not only manage claims – but manage them cost effectively. We provide timely resolutions to disputes, resulting in a savings of time and money. Our claims group is one of the best, providing expertise in forensic scheduling, generation and analysis of project history, expert witness testimony, and construction claim analysis.
