Charlotte General Contractor for Business Construction Should be a Good Construction Planner First!

Charlotte general contractor business construction from Ferrara|Buist.Ferrara-Buist works with entrepreneurs and business owners on all phases of planning, designing and building retail stores, business offices, light industrial manufacturing centers, medical offices and any type of business upfit.  At the very center of every one of our projects is our keen ability to plan business construction jobs

General contractor construction planning is the one aspect of building a project for business people where most contractors fall short.  Planning is key.  Planning is the element that keeps you on time and on budget or takes you wildly off any course or responsible road.

Construction planning is a fundamental and challenging activity in the management and execution of construction projects. It involves the choice of technology, the definition of work tasks, the estimation of the required resources and durations for individual tasks, and the identification of any interactions among the different work tasks. A good construction plan is the basis for developing the budget and the schedule for work.  Ferrara-Buist excels in planning and our business clients will tell you that our planning was the one aspect that made their project successful!

Developing our client’s construction plan is the critical task in the management of construction, even if the plan is not written or otherwise formally recorded. In addition to these technical aspects of construction planning, it may also be Charlotte general contractor business construction leaders at Ferrara|Buist.necessary to make organizational decisions about the relationships between project participants and even which organizations to include in a project. The difference with Ferrara|Buist is that we share everything with you so you can anticipate the full picture…up front.

By placing our clients into the full picture at the beginning of the project, we eliminate any chance of vast deviations from scope, budget and timeline. We don’t play the “change order” game. Our experience, by default, removes any guess work. We literally can manage any “unknowns” at the beginning of the project.

Ferrara|Buist will help you realize your business objectives, ideas and goals.  Please call our managing partner, David Buist, at 803-792-4348 or email david@ferrara-buist.com to schedule a private business meeting to learn more about how we can truly help you build your business with our exceptional general contracting construction planning.
