Construction control

ERA CAPITAL · Real estate advisory

Construction control of construction facilities ensures compliance of the actually completed works with design and working documentation, safety requirements, technical regulations and customer tasks. For commercial real estate projects, ERA CAPITAL performs independent quality control, timing, volume and cost of works, as well as checks executive documentation, construction materials and engineering systems.

Construction control services are in demand by investors, developers, developers and technical customers during new construction, reconstruction and overhaul. The inspection is carried out by specialized engineers and experts of ERA CAPITAL, not affiliated with contractors and suppliers. The customer receives objective data on the progress of the project, identified deviations, CAPEX risks and the timing of their elimination.

Construction control helps to make informed management decisions, control the budget and schedule, reduce the risk of alterations and confirm the quality of construction and installation work before moving to the next stages of the project. The service can be part of the integrated management of a capital construction project or the work of a technical customer.

Construction control and technical supervision. The term “construction control” is used in the regulatory framework. In the market, a similar task on the part of the customer is also often called technical supervision or technical supervision. ERA CAPITAL provides a separate technical supervision service, so the composition of the work is determined by the tasks and the management model of a particular project.

What is included in construction control services

ERA CAPITAL builds construction control as a consistent system of inspections on site and in documentation. The main directions correspond to the logic of input, operational and acceptance control used in construction.

Input control of materials and equipment

Engineers check certificates, quality passports, marking and compliance of incoming materials, products and equipment with project and working documentation. Inconsistencies are recorded before the product is used in the facility.

Operational control of construction processes

Specialists control the technology and quality of construction and installation works, including hidden works, construction, engineering networks and equipment installation. Checking is done before defects become unavailable for visual inspection.

Instrumental and engineering control

If necessary, measurements, instrumental diagnostics and geodetic control are used. They allow you to confirm the parameters of structures, the quality of installation, insulation, engineering systems and individual units.

Control of executive documentation

ERA CAPITAL checks work logs, certificates of inspection of hidden works, executive schemes, protocols and other documents confirming the actual performance and quality of works.

Result for the customer

Regular reporting, photofixation, a list of identified deviations, monitoring the timing of their elimination and clear engineering assessment of the current state of the project. This format transforms construction control from a formal inspection into a tool for managing quality, timing and cost.

Value of construction control for project participants

Different participants of the investment and construction project use the results of control for different management tasks.

For an investor

Reporting shows the actual readiness of the facility, the amount of work performed, the dynamics of the budget and the risks of deviation from the investment model. If necessary, construction control is supplemented by financial and technical audit and monitoring.

For a developer.

An independent engineering team removes part of the routine load of site control, fixes violations and helps to make timely decisions on contractors, schedule and quality of work.

For owner and tenant

The quality of the design and engineering systems directly affects the future operating costs of OPEX. Control during the construction phase reduces the likelihood of defects, accidents and additional costs after the facility is put into operation.

Construction control during reconstruction and overhaul

In reconstruction, overhaul and fit-out projects, the risks differ from new construction. An existing facility may show hidden structural defects, limitations of existing engineering systems and the need to work without completely stopping the operation of the building.

ERA CAPITAL checks the correctness of dismantling and installation works, the state of the stored elements, the compliance of new solutions with project documentation and the quality of the disputed nodes. If necessary, a construction and technical examination is carried out. The task of control is to identify deviations before the closure of structures, reduce the volume of alterations and ensure the managed implementation of the project.

Why Construction Control Trusts ERA CAPITAL

Independence. ERA CAPITAL is not affiliated with contractors and suppliers and represents the interests of the customer.

Profile engineering expertise. The project involves specialists in construction, engineering systems, documentation and construction cost depending on the task.

Clear reporting. The customer receives a photo fixation, a list of comments, the status of their elimination and recommendations for decision-making.

Preventive approach. Verification of design decisions, schedules and construction processes helps to identify risks before they lead to delays, alterations or cost increases.

Link to project management. If necessary, construction control is integrated with the functions of the technical customer, cost management and financial and technical monitoring.
