The Construction Manager will periodically monitor the progress of the Construction Documents and consult with both the Owner and Architect to maintain a balance between the proposed project cost and design decisions (Value Engineering). The Construction Manager will provide the Owner with a Final Project Cost Estimate that the Owner will rely upon in their endeavors to secure this project's funding. If project funding efforts exceed six months, the Construction Manager will advise the Owner of expected future cost escalations and the need to adjust the Project Budget accordingly.
