Effective communication can determine if a project is cost-effective and reflective of the client’s initial vision. N+P mitigates these risks by incorporating a direct liaison, supporting the construction manager and all involved teams during the design development process. When providing owner’s representation services, N+P steps in to supplement, assist, and advise the client’s internal project staff to the desired level. Once the project evolves to construction, N+P can provide construction administration support and coordinate with the construction manager and/or the general contractor/contractor. N+P will monitor a project’s progress, navigating its advancements to achieve the client’s objective.
