Design and construction management is usually carried out by general contractors. The current organisational structure of general contractors is not much different from the organisational structure of subcontractors and it does not meet modern requirements for entities of management of investment and construction projects.
The general contractor is usually involved in several large construction projects at the same time.
The development of technological specialisation in construction leads to an increase in the number of construction and installation companies and other organisations involved in construction, which also complicates construction management.
The above factors prevent the general contractors from concentrating on the timely completion of the scope of work on the sites in order to bring the facility into operation on time.
Ensuring of focused activity of all parties of construction process in strictly to the timetable is a complicated problem today. One way of solving this problem is to delegate construction management to a specialised organisation.
Laatu is a member of self-regulatory organisations:
- based on the membership of entities engaged in the preparation of design documentation;
- based on the membership of entities engaged in construction.
We provide the following design and construction management services:
