Pre-Construction Services are critical to the successful completion of a construction project or development program. Typically during the design and pre-construction phases of a project or program, there are numerous feasible alternatives for meeting the programmatic considerations. The RAI team has the knowledge and practical experience to identify potential project issues early in the design or pre-construction phases, allowing the RAI staff to implement early solutions that avoid potential delays and issues encountered later in construction.   We assist owners and design teams by recommending viable alternatives that may allow for more efficient and effective ways to accomplish the desired project time, cost, and quality objectives – potentially avoiding the cultivation of a claim environment.
