Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between construction management and general contracting?

As construction managers, we represent you (the owner) and oversee contractors on your behalf. As general contractors, we directly employ workers and subcontractors to perform the work. Construction management provides independent oversight and advocacy focused solely on your interests.

How are construction managers compensated?

CM fees are typically structured as a percentage of construction costs or as a fixed fee for defined services. Unlike contractors who profit from markups, our fee is transparent and agreed upon upfront, aligning our interests with yours.

Do I still need an architect if I hire a construction manager?

Yes, typically the architect designs the project and the construction manager oversees its construction. We work collaboratively with your architect to ensure the design is constructed as intended.

Can you provide construction management for projects outside Midland?

Yes, we provide construction management services throughout West Texas and can work on projects in other regions as needed. Our expertise travels well regardless of project location.
