We have provided construction management services to recent completed middle schools including Council Rock School District’s Holland and Newtown Middle Schools, Colonial Middle School in Colonial School District, Northampton Area School District’s Northampton Middle School and Pennwood Middle School in Pennsbury School District. We have worked very successfully with your project architect, The Schrader Group to provide construction management services for numerous school districts including Springfield Township, Council Rock, Quakertown Community and Hatboro-Horsham. The DEI team’s superior technical expertise and decades of practical experience provides a unique combination of personnel that are trained to manage and guide preliminary conceptual planning, schematic design, budget preparation, final design, bid and construction of projects. Our attention to detail will provide the District with a system-based value engineering approach that delivers best value to the project. The attention to detail and focus on providing complete documentation results in reduced liability, and clear, concise, and complete bidding documents, which translate into project savings beginning with the competitive bidding process. The integration of our experienced construction experts and the involvement of design professionals in the value engineering and constructability review process during the pre-design, design, and construction phases results in successful projects.
