Four service models. One accountable team.

Construction Manager, General Contractor, Design/Build partner, or Owner's Representative — pick the engagement that fits the project. We bring the same craftsmen and the same equipment either way.

01
Construction Manager

Open-book. Aligned incentives.

When you want full visibility into costs and the freedom to flex scope mid-project.

As Construction Manager, HCM operates on an open-book basis. We share every cost, every change order, and every savings opportunity with you in real time. We sit on your side of the table — responsible for managing the entire construction process from preconstruction through close-out — but you retain the ability to modify scope, evaluate trade-offs, and direct decisions as the project evolves.

This delivery method works best for owners who value transparency and control above price certainty, and for projects where the scope may evolve based on what's discovered in the field.

How CM works at HCM

  • Open-book pricing. Every subcontractor bid, material cost, and overhead line item is visible to you.
  • Shared savings. If we deliver under estimate, the savings flow back to you — not to us.
  • Scope flexibility. Adjust the program mid-project as priorities or conditions change.
  • Single point of accountability. One project executive, one super, one team — start to finish.
02
General Contractor

Lump-sum certainty. On schedule.

When the scope is locked and you want a fixed price you can budget against.

As General Contractor, HCM controls the bidding process and delivers the project at a pre-negotiated lump-sum price. You get certainty: a fixed cost, a defined scope, and a single party accountable for hitting both the schedule and the budget.

This delivery method works best for projects with well-defined drawings and specifications, where the priority is price certainty and a clean handoff. We coordinate every trade, manage every milestone, and run the job safely and organized to your standards.

What you get with HCM as GC

  • Fixed-price contract. Locked-in cost based on competitive subcontractor bidding.
  • Schedule guarantee. Critical-path planning with weekly look-aheads and owner reporting.
  • Safety-first jobsites. OSHA-compliant programs, dedicated safety officer on every project.
  • Self-performed trades. In-house carpentry, demolition, and finish work — fewer handoffs, tighter quality.
03
Design / Build

One contract. One team.

When you want designer and builder on the same side of the table from day one.

In a Design/Build engagement, HCM partners with you from the earliest concept through final occupancy. We collaborate to understand the project's goals — operational, financial, and architectural — then provide a single proposal covering design, budget, and schedule.

Because the designer and constructor are working together from the start, trade-offs surface early. The bid-and-redesign loop disappears. Specifications get optimized for buildability and cost. And the project moves from concept to construction faster than the traditional design-bid-build path.

The Design/Build advantage

  • Single source of accountability. One contract covers design, engineering, and construction — one party owns the outcome.
  • Earlier cost certainty. Real-time pricing as the design develops, no surprise bids.
  • Buildability optimized. Designer and constructor align on materials, sequencing, and details from day one.
  • Compressed schedule. Design and construction can overlap, shaving months off traditional delivery.
04
Owner's Representative

Your advocate, end to end.

When you're hiring someone else to build it — and you want a pro on your side.

As Owner's Representative, HCM is your single point of contact and your advocate throughout preconstruction, construction, and post-construction. We don't carry the construction contract — we carry your interests. That means we're free to push back, ask hard questions, and make sure the contractor delivers exactly what you're paying for.

This is the right engagement when you have a complex capital project, an in-house team without dedicated construction expertise, or a builder you didn't hire and want a watchful eye on.

What an Owner's Rep does

  • Procurement support. RFPs, contractor selection, contract negotiation — protecting your terms.
  • Schedule & budget oversight. Independent verification of contractor pay applications and progress claims.
  • Quality control. Site walks, mockup reviews, and punch-list management to your standards.
  • Single point of contact. One executive who knows your project cold — from kickoff to TCO.
