AMI Mechanical, Inc. looks to create value to optimize project objectives. We use a value engineering approach to analyze cost optimization reviewing all options. Innovative ideas are encouraged from all team project members. Value engineering ideas are tracked on a trend log. Since they are part of the design process from the initial phase, design progress is not disrupted. From the start of the design there are four key concepts we consider and track throughout the process. They are: Value Engineering, Cost Optimization, Life Cycle Analysis, and Constructability.
AMI strongly emphasizes the team concept approach to successful project completion. Regardless of the type of contract we procure (GMP, Design Build, Design Assist, Lump-Sum, etc.) we manage the process closely as a team member with our consultants, other trade consultants (e.g. Electrical), the client, and the general contractor. Regular meetings are scheduled to maintain project integrity and to ensure open communications.
AMI Mechanical, Inc. has complete confidence in our ability to successfully manage the design-build process for controlling program costs, equipment life-cycle, and project constructability.
The preconstruction services do not necessarily end at 100% document production. As we turn the project over to Project Management and Operations performance is managed with emphasis on milestones dates. Comprehensive scheduling tools are used to outline critical path activities so nothing relating to the project is forgotten. All team members are involved in communications, project schedule, and project budget. In this way any impact and risk is reduced to allow for a 100% successful project completion.
