Management

Pre-Construction Planning

The foundation of a successful build is strong pre-construction planning. Our management team leads early-phase efforts to establish realistic budgets, schedules, logistics plans, and permitting pathways. We coordinate with architects, engineers, permitting agencies, and contractors to make sure everyone is aligned before construction begins. Services include:

• Project budgeting and cost estimation
• Value engineering and scope optimization
• Bid solicitation and contractor selection
• Permit tracking and regulatory coordination

By identifying risks and opportunities early, we create clear roadmaps that set projects up for on-time, on-budget success.

Schedule and Cost Management

Coastal Systems applies strict project controls to keep development moving forward efficiently. Our managers develop detailed construction schedules using critical path methods (CPM), track progress with regular reporting, and hold contractors accountable for milestones. Simultaneously, we monitor budgets in real-time, verifying pay applications, change orders, and procurement activities to maintain financial transparency and control.

We focus on proactive problem solving, minimizing delays, and protecting our clients from cost overruns and schedule slippage.

Quality Assurance and Field Oversight

Waterfront environments demand high construction standards. Our management team performs regular site inspections, contractor coordination meetings, and quality control checks to ensure that workmanship meets specifications. We verify materials, monitor safety compliance, and document construction activities to maintain accountability and reduce rework costs.

When challenges arise—from weather disruptions to field changes—we respond quickly, making informed decisions that keep projects on track without compromising quality.

Contract Administration and Risk Mitigation

Managing contracts, insurance, bonds, warranties, and legal compliance is critical to protecting project outcomes. Coastal Systems oversees contract administration with meticulous attention to detail, managing:

• Contractor agreements and change orders
• Lien waivers and closeout documentation
• Dispute resolution and claims management
• Warranty coordination and post-construction support

We also implement risk mitigation strategies, including contingency planning, safety audits, and insurance compliance checks, giving our clients peace of mind throughout the process.
