The Landmark Way.
We believe in treating people how we want to be treated, with the ultimate goal of building strong, lasting relationships.
Our ethos
Relationships first. Respect, integrity and collaboration at every step.
Our process is collaborative, precise and client-focused. From initial budgeting and project development to detailed estimating and a seamless handoff to project management, every step is handled with care and expertise. But it’s our dedication to relationships that truly defines “The Landmark Way.”
Our process
From sketch to site.
Initial Consultation and Budgeting
The process begins when we receive a call from a prospective client seeking assistance with budget preparation. Often, this starts with minimal details: a simple sketch or basic plan. Leveraging our extensive experience and industry knowledge, we ask the right questions to gather essential information about the project scope. This enables us to develop a comprehensive site package even from limited data.
Project Development Assistance
We pride ourselves on our ability to improve site constructability and construction costs, working closely with engineers and owners. By building 3D models of everything we construct, we can visualize and refine our plans, ensuring accuracy and feasibility. This collaborative effort extends to developing pricing and plans through an iterative process with our clients.
Strong Relationships and Trusted Expertise
Our clients trust us to provide reliable and accurate estimates. We maintain strong relationships with engineers, vendors, and subcontractors, considering them partners in our projects. This network allows us to negotiate effectively and bring in the right expertise for each project.
Detailed Estimating Process
Every project we handle benefits from the scrutiny of at least two estimators. This dual-review system ensures that every aspect of the estimate is accurate and comprehensive, with experienced estimators mentoring newer team members. Our process is supported by HCSS HeavyBid, Trimble Business Center, AutoCAD, Primavera P6, and Bluebeam.
Seamless Transition to Project Management
Once the estimating phase is complete, we work closely with our project management team to transition the project from the bid phase to execution. Our estimating team continues to support the project with change orders, value engineering ideas, and ongoing consultation on cost-effectiveness and constructability.
Field Collaboration and Support
Our estimating team doesn’t just work behind the scenes. We engage directly with the field teams, down to the foreman level, especially for complex projects, so everyone has a clear understanding of the project goals and details.
Commitment to Training and Diversity
Diversity within our estimating department is a key strength, bringing a range of perspectives and ideas to our projects. We train new estimators through real-world experience and mentorship.
Utilizing Advanced Tools and Data
We use advanced tools and techniques for layout and surveying, gathering topographical information, contour maps, and other critical data. This information feeds our detailed and accurate models, guiding planning and execution.
