Contract Administration & Superintendent Services

A Superintendent who has run the job from both sides

Construction contracts go wrong in predictable ways: late notices, loose variations, unassessed extension of time claims and payment schedules issued a day late. We act as Superintendent or Superintendent's Representative, or sit beside your team as contract administrator, and keep the contract administered fairly, on time and on the record.
