How We Work
We build
your strategies.
Vanguard Construction & Co. employs over 100 diverse and dedicated professionals, many with degrees in architecture, design or construction management. When assigned to a project, the first thing we do is gather our team to strategize what best supports this particular job.
Our project team––including our Account Executive, Estimator, Project Manager, Assistant PM and Superintendent––will review the drawings, visit the site, and interview the client, user group, and building management. We confirm what Long Lead Items will need to be ordered to guarantee delivery within schedule. We verify what municipalities need to be reached to procure water, electric, or gas.
We raise questions on permits, code compliance, fire protection or abatement, and explore logistics of working in an occupied space to present phased layouts to our client showing how we can build continuously while minimizing daily interruption.
From studying the details, substantiating costs, and tapping the experience of our fellow staff members and consultants as well as the Architect, Engineer and subcontractors assigned to the project, the Vanguard Team spearheads an exchange of ideas. By strategizing the whole job in advance––in short, building it within our experienced imaginations––we establish a game plan that highlights the critical path we need to address in advance. By tackling issues in a job’s early stages, we help secure our client’s success.
