Constructability reviews from a builder’s perspective

I review Design Development and Construction Document sets, including multidisciplinary coordination reviews.

Plan reviews and construction document reviews

I review drawing sets at every stage, from Design Development through the set issued for construction, including multidisciplinary coordination reviews across the disciplines.

Every issue is marked on the drawings in Bluebeam Revu and listed in an organized comment spreadsheet. I review the findings with the owner and architect when requested.

Drawing stages I review

  • Design Development
  • 50% Construction Documents
  • 75% Construction Documents
  • 90% Construction Documents
  • Permit / Bid Set
  • Issued for Construction

What I catch before it reaches the field

  • Coordination issues

    Conflicting dimensions, clearances, and systems that don’t work together.

  • Missing information

    Gaps in documents that lead to RFIs, assumptions, and costly delays.

  • Drawing errors

    Incorrect notes, details, or references that create field rework.

  • Deficient detailing

    Missing or incomplete details that cause construction problems.

  • Quality control

    A final set of eyes to protect your budget, schedule, and reputation.

  • Have a set ready?

    Send a few project details and I’ll come back to you on scope, timing, and cost.

Why owners hire me

  • Fewer RFIs

    Identify issues early, before they become RFIs, delays, or field problems.

  • Better coordination

    Catch conflicts between disciplines before they create costly field coordination problems.

  • Reduced rework

    Clearer documents mean less rework in the field.

  • Reduced change orders

    Fewer surprises lead to fewer changes and lower costs.

  • Better bid documents

    More accurate bids with less risk and better pricing.

  • Smoother construction

    Projects start stronger and stay on track through completion.

Let’s catch the problems before your crews do.

Better documents. Fewer surprises. Stronger projects. Better results.
