Design-Build Services
Padma Group’s unique design-build approach relies on teams of architectural, engineering, real estate, construction, and property management professionals to devise the best solutions for our clients. This collaboration allows us to customize projects to meet clients’ needs on time and on budget.
Our approach provides a single source solution, taking total responsibility for every aspect of a building project, from concept through final occupancy, and beyond. Decisions are made in real time, working with clients from the beginning, and simultaneously offering design, constructability, and pricing options.
Construction Services
1. Architecture and Construction
Padma Group is committed to becoming engaged as early on in a project as possible. Thorough preconstruction involvement is the cornerstone to a collaborative, streamlined project that is delivered on time and within budget. Our preconstruction services include cost estimating, value engineering/value management, constructability analysis, site use and improvement consultation, material selection, identification of long-lead items, subcontractor recommendations, and building and special permit assistance.
The Benefits of Using Combined Architecture and Construction
Padma Group believes that combining architecture and construction will eliminate many issues.
– The process flows smoothly when one entity is responsible for managing the entire project.
– The architect and contractor are on the same team (the A/C team), thus reducing or eliminating possible miscommunications that can occur between the design professional and the contractor.
– During the design phase, the architects can freely discuss construction details with the lead carpenter.
– The need for costly change orders is greatly reduced or eliminated.
– The project budget is agreed upon by all involved early in the process so that nobody gets in “too deep” without knowing the cost implications.
– The project schedule can be determined early in the process with a start date and end date agreed by client and A/C team. Time delays are kept to a minimum as all parties involved have an interest in a timely completion.
Overall project costs are reduced since change orders and construction time are kept to a minimum.
2. Construction-only services
are a critical part of our business and integral to our continued diversity and unique position in the Princeton construction industry. Collaboration with other architects has been a consistently rewarding experience for our company.
