About

Construction Manager (CM), or Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR), is a delivery method that utilizes the construction company as an advisor, consultant, advocate and builder.  The CM firm is selected prior to the completion of the drawings and offers preconstruction consulting during design.  CM and CMAR contracts often utilize a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) as the cost component of the contract.  Owners have the opportunity to select a design team and a contractor independently, based on each firm’s qualifications and suitability for the project.
