Building is always about increasing potential.
Building is always about increasing potential. It’s planning, constructing, managing and partnering in ways that are truly most valuable to you. For us, whether we’re handling a design/build project or working as part of a joint effort, we see success as your complete satisfaction. From our own geographic growth to expanding the list of construction methods we offer, every measure we’ve taken has been to better serve our clients.
Our Services
Pre-construction and Virtual Design & Construction (VDC)
Construction begins at conception. So it stands to reason that this is the most critical time for true partnership to pay off. The earlier we can work together with our clients to plan, model, source materials and subcontractors, influence cost and increase efficiency, the more opportunity there can be for real consistency and value.
Construction
Construction is all about building lasting value for our clients. Whether we are managing subcontractors on an office build-out, or self-performing a variety of civil, mechanical and heavy rigging work on a new combined-cycle power plant, building the highest quality product while maintaining a safe work site and carefully managed schedule is always at the forefront of what we do.
Virtual Design & Construction/BIM (VDC/BIM)
Graycor continues to invest in its Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) capabilities as an instrumental component in visualizing projects and detecting clashes with building systems. Through creating fully-integrated models from construction documents to eliminate problems typically discovered in the field, both time and costs savings are realized on projects.
We see the traditional Conceptual Design > Schematic Design > Design Development > Construction Document model yielding to an approach that promotes more decision-making earlier in the document development process, in the very early stages, or perhaps even before the development of the 3D model. Due to the effort involved in developing and significantly revising the model once it is created, preliminary project schedules reflect the BIM process for document development. Since an emphasis is placed on up-front decision-making, Graycor teams perform significant budget exercises to provide feedback on various building design options during the initial Schematic Design process. This familiarity with BIM in design development and budgeting has enabled Graycor to assemble preconstruction services proposals reflective of the BIM process.
