Merits of the “Engineering + CM Method”
We proceed from the case study phase through to basic planning and basic design with high precision and speed.
Unlike specialized CM companies, CM Plus can advance basic design centered on production equipment in-house. This allows us to offer various proposals through case studies during the planning and design stages, enabling clients to select the best plan from those proposals. Moreover, by completing up to the basic design, we can present highly accurate conditions at the inquiry stage, significantly reducing fluctuations in “quality,” “cost,” and “schedule” during later design and construction phases.
Since CM Plus is a CM company that aligns with clients without any vested interests, we can support the selection of appropriate inquiry parties for the project without being tied to specific design or construction companies or production equipment manufacturers.
Engineering
Effective inquiry realization through extracting requirement specifications and realizing facility plans
CM Plus’s engineering involves executing design while closely aligning with the client’s challenges and creating design documents and inquiry specifications that accurately reflect the client’s requirements. Even at the business concept stage, where the client’s requests are still unformed, CM Plus’s technology and expertise help realizing the plan to a level that can be inquired upon to design and construction companies.
Construction Management
Steady project execution through appropriate process, quality, and cost management
A Construction Manager (CMr) maintains technical neutrality while standing on the client’s side, performing various management tasks such as design review, consideration of construction contract methods, schedule management, quality management, and cost management during each stage of design, procurement, and construction. During inquiries, CM Plus selects suitable inquiry parties for the project without being tied to specific design, construction companies, or production equipment manufacturers.
After receiving estimates and proposals, CM Plus impartially compares and review the submitted estimates and proposals from a third-party perspective, supporting the selection of the optimal contractor. Moreover, even during the subsequent stages of detailed design and construction, CM Plus manages the project from the client’s standpoint, leading the project to success.
