As with all non-profit organizations, we established a process for decision-making that appropriately engaged the Building Committee and Board of Directors, keeping them well-informed and allowing the team to stay on track to meet the project’s design, budget and schedule goals. Late in the process external circumstances created unforeseen budget and schedule challenges. LHC managed late value engineering measures in order to meet a reduction in the construction budget of 30%. Working very closely with the general contractor and architect, LHC helped to strategize construction and move-in activities in order to overcome the schedule challenges and to meet the client’s deadlines. The project came in on budget and the client moved in on time.

Primary responsibilities:

• Coordinate general contractor and consultant RFP process and selection
• Coordinate/manage programming, design, documentation and construction phases
• Develop and manage project budget and schedule
• Oversee the entitlement process
• Liaise to government agencies
• Coordinate and conduct Building Committee meetings
• Provide monthly updates to the Board of Directors; attend Board meetings as required
