The lack of true specificity in the Scope of Work is where most apartment community renovations go off the rails. It’s why they go over budget and over time. It’s why the wary contractor pads their estimate by at least 20% to allow for the inevitable costs an incomplete Scope of Work, and the resulting changes, saddles them with. We don’t want to work that way and you shouldn’t either. So, based on our initial needs assessment, we will provide you with the most detailed Scope of Work in the business, one that specifically does all the following:
- Clearly defines the owners expectations.
- Allows for accurate, apples to apples price quotes.
- Reduces contingency pricing.
- Reduces the likelihood of change orders.
- Allows for consistency of products installed.
- Creates a “checks and balances” of work performed.
- Eliminates surprises
