Why You Need a Construction Consultant
When gearing up for a commercial construction project – whether it’s building out new retail space, expanding an office headquarters, or developing a medical facility – you may wonder if you need a construction consultant (often serving as an Owner’s Representative or project advisor). Large firms like CBRE or JLL offer project management and consulting, but even if you’re not a Fortune 500 company, you can benefit from similar expertise on your side. In fact, having a knowledgeable consultant advocate for your interests can be the secret to outpacing the competition (like those big firms) in terms of project success and efficiency.
