Project Controls

Your project, our expertise – We’ll keep you on track for success

Large-scale construction projects require continuous oversight of systematic processes to maximize your investment and ensure the proper use of resources. By leveraging an in-house team to stay on top of projects throughout the pre-construction and construction management process, our clients and their projects are set up to reach their project goals and deadlines without unexpected headaches or surprises.

HPM Project Controls is your partner in effectively tracking and managing three pillars of controls:

  1. Financial Controls: Establishing and maintaining a budget for capital projects is key in achieving an overall success that is within the scope of all stakeholders. HPM’s Financial Controls team is experienced in meeting clients where they are, adapting to individualized processes for budget management based on client needs and leveraging industry-preferred tools like Procore to establish necessary financial controls and provide for effective budget management.
  2. Scheduling Controls: HPM understands that proper scheduling of large construction projects is often a delicate balance, involving many stakeholders and considerations. To ensure timely project completion with as little disruption to surrounding events and groups as possible, the Scheduling Controls team works directly with internal groups and leverages their expertise to proactively identify and mitigate risks to the schedule.
  3. General Controls: While budgeting and scheduling are major factors in project planning, adept risk management, clear communication and continued transparency throughout the project is equally important to maintain project expectations and provide any necessary updates. These projects take time, and HPM has the tools and team to share helpful reporting, documentation, and status updates throughout the project life cycle.

 

We adapt to your team’s needs – as support to your existing team, as a standalone service, or both.

 

Planning for a Flexible Future

Project Controls’ services include two phases for optimizing success: Pre-Construction and Construction. During Pre-Construction, our team works with you to understand project goals, plan based on personalized client needs, and create a comprehensive schedule for all stakeholders. In the Construction phases, our team continues to plan and adapt based on any needed updates and considerations that were not included in Pre-Construction phases. Throughout every phase, clients can expect clear communication and frequent reporting on progress and milestones.
