When time and circumstance permit, we encourage our clients to take advantage of our menu of planning services before initiating any significant construction or improvement project. Starting a project with a thorough understanding of supply and demand can dramatically enhance the planning process and improve return on investment by identifying scenarios for managing risk and maximizing resource performance throughout a facility’s life cycle.

This includes a lengthy record of working directly with the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office for approvals. It also involves helping our clients develop phasing plans to fit with their funding programs and other relevant factors.Specifically, our repertory encompasses the following planning tools:

• Code Compliance Surveys
