Berkshire
PROACTIVE OVERSIGHT ENSURES TIMELY COMPLETION
Overview
Berkshire is part of a three-phase development plan in the Alliance Area of North Fort Worth, Texas. The community offers luxurious living with upscale amenities including a clubhouse with gaming tables and a speak-easy style bar, a state-of-the-art business center, and a contemporary demonstration kitchen. Outdoor features include a two-story fitness center, private garages, dog park, pet grooming station, resort-style pool with fountain splash pads, car wash, and second-floor roof deck with an outdoor kitchen area.
Peritia played a key role in planning and scheduling for the Berkshire project. Our experts ensured smooth coordination between contractors and subcontractors through extensive pull-planning sessions. By utilizing Primavera P6 scheduling software using CPM scheduling techniques, we created a detailed baseline schedule that acted as a roadmap for the project. Regular bi-weekly updates were provided to monitor progress. In addition, Peritia’s experts provided valuable oversight by monitoring progress, tracking key milestones, and analyzing schedule gains/slippage. This proactive approach enabled our client, Provident General Contractors, to remain aware of the project timeline and quickly address any issues that could affect timely completion.
Solution
Peritia’s expertise was crucial in managing the complexities of the construction process, particularly in reducing delays and negative impacts caused by various factors such as owner decisions, architectural revisions, and inclement weather. With careful monitoring and tracking, our efforts enabled the client to accurately document and measure delays, which made it easier for them to request time extensions as needed. Additionally, during bi-weekly updates, our experts played a key role in leading recovery efforts for milestones that missed their expected completion dates, ensuring that the project stayed on track for successful completion.
