Project Management
Project management in the construction industry is a traditional model of construction project management and includes the complex management of the entire process from planning the project, managing and coordinating design work or its provision, organizing tenders to the implementation and control of the completed construction. The project manager acts as the main link between the investor, the designer, the general contractor, any direct contractors and other partners. Quality project management ensures that the construction is completed on time, to an appropriate quality and within the approved budget.

Construction Managment
Construction management, or Construction management, is a specific way of managing a project where construction is carried out without a general contractor. This is replaced by a set of individual contractors who are individually contracted and managed by a team of experienced consultants under the direction of a Project Manager.
The structure of the trade packages is ideally defined at an early stage of the project so that the project documentation reflects their breakdown and clearly defines the interfaces between the various parts of the work. This preparation enables the effective implementation of tenders for individual contractors.
An important advantage of this method of procedure is the possibility to start the construction before the complete completion of the implementation documentation. The documentation can be gradually refined and handed over to the construction site according to the actual needs of the project, which significantly contributes to the acceleration of the entire construction process.
An equally significant benefit of construction management is the reduction of overall investment costs, as the general contractor's commercial markups are eliminated in this model.

Technical Site Supervison
Technical supervision is the professional supervision of the construction works to ensure that the construction is carried out in accordance with the project documentation, building permit and applicable standards. Technical supervision controls the quality of materials used, compliance with technological procedures, the performance of prescribed tests and compliance with the construction schedule. It also supervises the fulfilment of the contractor's contractual obligations and identifies and addresses risks leading to technical or legal errors in a timely manner.
His main task is to professionally defend the interests of the investor and protect his investment. This includes checking the actual work carried out for invoicing purposes, attending inspection days and work acceptance.
Unlike project management, Technical Supervision has a primarily controlling role without direct intervention in the management of construction processes.

Cost Estimation
Cost estimating in the construction industry is a key process for determining all the anticipated costs of future construction. It includes both soft cost costs such as design work, surveys, engineering to secure opinions and permits, administrative and potential contract fees, project management costs, TD, etc. and then the cost of civil works, loose and built-in furniture, etc. and of course the project reserve. Estimates are prepared at various stages of the project - from initial concept to detailed budget. Their accuracy depends on the documents available and the methodology chosen. A good quality estimate is essential for effective planning, financing and risk management of the project over time.

Value Engineering
Cost management in the construction industry involves careful planning, control and optimization of financial expenditures throughout the duration of a construction project. The main objective is to minimize costs while maintaining high quality, desired standards and adherence to schedule. This process includes budgeting, monitoring costs, dealing with project changes, finding savings and dealing with deviations from planned expenditure. It also includes risk analysis, negotiating changes with suppliers and efficient use of materials and labour. Effective cost management contributes to increased project profitability and ensures successful and timely completion.
06
Cost optimisation
Cost optimization in the construction industry means efficient management of financial resources to reduce expenditure while maintaining the required quality of construction and their standards. Careful planning, selection of appropriate materials, efficient organisation of work and use of modern technology are key factors. Optimising the supply chain and minimising material wastage are also essential. Digitalisation and BIM modelling play a role in preventing errors and optimising processes at the design stage. Overall, it is a balanced approach that takes into account not only the financial costs but also the time and environmental aspects of construction.

Due diligence
Due diligence in construction is the process of detailed analysis and evaluation of technical, legal, financial and environmental aspects of a construction project or property. This process includes reviewing construction documents, verifying ownership rights, building permits, the technical condition of buildings and identifying potential risks. It helps investors, developers or buyers to minimise the risks associated with investing in a property. The due diligence may also include a Red Flag report accompanied by estimates of the cost of remedying the defects listed in the report. The result of this process is an analysis that serves as the basis for decisions about the purchase, financing or implementation of the project, thus helping to protect the investor's interests.
08
Engineering
Engineering activities in the construction industry include comprehensive discussion of the plan or clearly defined project with utility managers, affected state and local government authorities, and other participants in the permitting process. The key aspects are experience, contacts and patience in obtaining opinions, decisions or permits.

Consultation, expertise, certification
Consultations, expert opinions and certifications in the construction industry are specialized services provided by experts such as civil engineers, architects, structural engineers and other specialists in the field, such as LEED, BREEAM, etc. These services are used to assess the existing technical condition of buildings, design structural solutions or verify compliance with applicable standards and regulations. They are used when planning new buildings, renovations or when resolving disputes and claims. Expert opinions usually include material analysis, structural calculations and diagnostics of building structures. In the context of the sustainability of buildings, either in preparation for construction or during their operation, certification is carried out, which currently has a significant impact on the market perception of the project. These services help investors and property owners to minimise risks, prevent damage or lead the project to a predefined level of sustainability.

Time Schedule
Scheduling in the construction industry is the process of planning and managing individual phases of construction to ensure the smooth and efficient progress of work. The process involves determining the sequence of activities, their time requirements and interdependencies. Various tools such as Gantt charts or network diagrams (CPM, PERT) are used for this purpose. A well-designed schedule helps to minimize delays, optimize the use of resources and reduce costs. Updating it regularly is essential to respond flexibly to changes and unexpected events during construction.

Tender Management
Tendering in the construction industry is a process aimed at selecting a contractor for a specific construction project or part of a project. The process involves the negotiation of the participation of potential bidders for the contract, the preparation of tender documents which set out the terms and conditions, the criteria for the evaluation of tenders and the deadlines for the submission of tenders. The aim is to ensure a transparent and competitive selection of the most suitable contractor to meet the project requirements at a reasonable price and within the specified timeframe. Tenders are normally multi-bid. During each round, bidders' errors in budgets, misunderstandings of the terms of reference or specifications are eliminated, and contractual arrangements and schedule are discussed. After the final evaluation of the last round of bids, a final report with a recommendation is presented to the client, and the decision to select a contractor rests with the client, who then enters into a contract with the contractor.

Design management (Control of design work)
Control of design work is a systematic process of professional supervision over the course of project preparation in order to verify compliance with the established parameters, compliance with the Planning Act, Planning Permit, SP, etc. and investor's requirements. These requirements are usually defined in documents such as the Client's Brief, White Book or Project Manual, which specify the technical, operational, aesthetic and legislative standards to be met by the project across all professions.
The service includes not only a rigorous review of the project documentation for compliance with these specifications, but also expert consultation at each stage of project preparation. Based on our extensive experience in the execution of diverse construction projects, we also offer the possibility of tailoring these basic documents and standards directly to the investor's project.
This service significantly contributes to minimizing the risks associated with subsequent changes in the project documentation or additional costs during construction.

Loan Monitoring
Construction project monitoring is a process that focuses on tracking and controlling the progress of construction according to a set plan. This process includes regular checking of the schedule, budget, quality of work being carried out or just purely checking the contractor's or tenant's performance in accordance with the terms of the work in the building. The aim is to detect problems and deviations early so that the necessary corrective action can be taken. Project monitoring also involves ensuring communication between all stakeholders such as investors, banks, designers and contractors. Effective monitoring contributes to the successful completion of the project in accordance with the client's requirements.

Tenant Fit - Out Coordination
Coordination of interior work in the construction industry includes the organisation and management of all activities related to the construction of new fit-outs or renovation of building interiors. Its aim is to ensure the smooth flow of work between subcontractors such as electricians, plumbers, painters or tilers. The coordinator has to keep a close eye on the schedule, ensure timely delivery of materials, and efficiently resolve any problems during implementation. It is also his or her job to ensure that all work is carried out in accordance with the project and applicable regulations. This requires regular communication with the investor, designer and other project participants.

Claims Management
Construction defect management is a process aimed at identifying, analysing and rectifying defects that have arisen during construction or during the use of a building. This process includes monitoring, repair and corrective action to ensure that the construction complies with all technical and safety standards. Defects may be discovered during inspections, claims, or after completion of construction. When defects are identified, it is essential to determine responsibility for their occurrence, which may include the contractor, the designer or other construction participants, or the user. Effective management of defects, including their rectification, contributes to maintaining the quality, safety and longevity of the construction.
