SEE OUR FULL RANGE OF SERVICES


Pre Construction

or delivery method, is most often determined by the decisions made in the very beginning. Cal Pro Construction Inc. design phase services offer significant advantages to projects of every scope and size. During preconstruction, we use our own database of construction information compiled from many years of projects to create highly accurate cost models. These models provide a road map for the entire project team that is critical when making decisions about major systems, materials and equipment. Our years of experience also allow us to determine the constructability of your project and develop detailed construction schedules that are realistic and meet your needs. From our experts in the many trades comes input and knowledge during preconstruction that helps save time, control costs and increase value for our customers.

our construction services we provide; we also manage the construction phase, we use our own crews to self-perform all or portions of the work or enlist prequalified subcontractors who meet our high standards for quality and cost-consciousness. We combine our construction skills and experience with true innovation to bring the highest levels of efficiency and quality to each and every project.


 

Construction

As a full-service contractor, Cal Pro Construction Inc. provides a comprehensive range of delivery methods which can be tailored to meet your exact requirements. We can also self-perform critical work for added cost savings and improved quality. We use the following delivery methods, resulting in a completed project that meets or exceeds your goals.


 

Self Performed Construction

As often as possible, Cal Pro Construction Inc. self-performs critical portions of its construction projects, including concrete work, excavation and grading, underground utilities and drainage systems. We have the skilled labor, specialized equipment and hands-on experience to get the job done right, right from the start.

  • Self-performing offers our customers substantial benefits
  • Allows us to quickly identify and solve any challenges
  • Implement changes orders and efficiently reduce or eliminate subcontractor delays
  • Maintains better control of the schedule
  • Sets the standard of craftsmanship for the entire construction project

 

Construction Management

Cal Pro Construction Inc. is selected as construction manager and general contractor early in the design phase. We work closely with your architect to examine alternate materials, systems, and equipment for cost, quality and availability. We then perform constructability reviews and offer value engineering suggestions. This early coordination fosters collaboration and focuses the entire team on finding the best solutions for your construction project. We also coordinate all subcontractor bids and determine a guaranteed maximum price for construction.

  • Advise and consult on all aspects of planning
  • Manage the design and construction phases
  • Establish parameters for quality, cost and time
  • Provide construcabiliy reviews and cost analyses
  • Prepare bid packages
  • Prepare conceptual and detailed estimates
  • Develop a phasing and sequencing plan
  • Utilize Building Information Modeling to ensure constructablilty of the design while minimizing cost and schedule
  • Prepare the overall project schedule and provide periodic detailed updates
  • Establish and maintain all quality control standards
  • Guarantee the construction cost
  • Serve as General Constractor

 

Design/Build Construction

Design-Build is another contracting method that is gaining popularity, as it can provide significant cost and time savings for our customers. Whereas the traditional Design-Bid-Build process separates design and construction, Design-Build provides a single point of responsibility for an entire project. Instead of the owner contracting separately with the architect and the contractor, Design-Build typically ties the architect contractually to the contractor. The contractor then enters into a Design-Build contract with the owner. The owner now has to deal with one entity, the Design-Build team, and not each one separately.


HOW IT WORKS.

Here’s how it works at Cal Pro Construction Inc. We select an architect/engineer for a specific project and place them under contract as part of our design-build team. We then work with the owner to plan, design and construct the project to meet the specific goals, constraints and demands of the project.

We used this approach for all of our design/build projects, turning a challenging budget and schedule into an overwhelming success.

Similar to Construction Management, Design-Build enhances the opportunity for improved coordination between the designers and constructors, more efficient and constructible designs, economies of time and cost and a potentially greater overall team approach.

 


 

Construction and Program Management

Construction projects – regardless of size – involve numerous details, and not every owner has the time or experience to manage the process. Many choose to retain a firm to handle the planning, design and construction phases of their projects.

This process is referred to as Construction Management; when it is expanded to include multiple projects, it is called Program Management.

Cal Pro Construction Inc.  provides superior Construction Management and Program Management services to public and private owners alike. We have experience managing single construction projects as well as multiple project programs with multiple projects and phases on single campus settings and several sites.

As Construction or Program Manager, we take responsibility for the entire project. And because each project has different requirements and different parameters, our services span all phases of construction:

Preconstruction

  • Serve as owner’s agent and supplement existing staff
  • Work within desired delivery system
  • Manage planning and design
  • Evaluate potential sites
  • Assist in selection of design team
  • Maximize front-end planning with early feasibility studies to reduce problems during execution
  • Establish cost and time parameters and prepare bid packages
  • Offer value engineering input and cost analysis

Construction

  • Award contracts
  • Manage construction and coordinate all subcontractor activities
  • Manage material procurement
  • Monitor costs and schedules
  • Maintain quality control standards
  • Provide on-going communications and status reports
  • Monitor contractor's safety programs

Post-construction

  • Develop punch-lists
  • Monitor implementation of punch-lists
  • Resolve outstanding issues
  • Oversee the systems and equipment operations training
  • Remain engaged throughout the warranty period
With Cal Pro Construction Inc. serving as Construction Manager or Program Manager, you’re assured the best possible project outcome no matter which project delivery method is used.

 


 

Built to Suit Construction

 

One of the most complete services offered by Cal Pro Construction Inc. is also one with the greatest added value to our Customers: Build-to-Suit, also known as Lease-Leaseback.

Under this delivery method, we provide General Contracting and Construction Management services plus we finance, own and lease the building back to you.

Build-to-Suit construction often affords greater flexibility for the owner in terms of their limited involvement in the design and construction of the project and the absence of their being required to provide the financing. They typically sign a long-term lease and may or may not own the building at end of the lease term, depending on the way the build-to-suit contract is structured.

This approach also offers owners the opportunity to:

  • Develop a building that suits their very specific requirements
  • Occupy a new building, designed and constructed to their specifications with no initial capital outlay.

 

Design-Bid-Build Construction

Design-Bid-Build, the oldest and most well known contracting method for construction projects, is still popular with some owners. With Design-Bid-Build, the contractor does not enter the process until after the design is complete. The drawings are put out for competitive bid to general contractors, and the one with the lowest price is typically awarded the project.

When Cal Pro Construction Inc. contractors work in this manner, we coordinate and manage all subcontractors from start to finish, and often self-perform critical portions of work to provide greater value to our customers.

  • Residential spec and custom homes
  • Site development and infrastructure
  • Remodels
