Preconstruction Services

The Highland Group views the preconstruction phase as the most critical part of any project.

General Contractor

When we started, we started building. As our core service, we are able to offer our general contracting services to you in the traditional design-bid-build format and perform these services through negotiated contract and bid basis. If you are looking for a General Contractor that recognizes quality, schedule and cost control are more than buzz words, they are daily discussion topics, we’d welcome the opportunity to earn your business.

Construction Management

As a successful General Contractor, we know what it means to build a project from the ground up. Our knowledge and skills provide a unique approach when we assist our clients in managing the overall planning, design, and construction of a project. Our heightened awareness leads to more efficient designs, increased budget confidence, lower bid prices, fewer change orders, decreased construction times, and higher quality.

Design/Build

The design-build delivery method offers our clients an efficient avenue to interact with engineering, architectural, design, and construction team members early on in the project and leads to an efficient, cost-effective agreement structure benefiting all involved. Because the design and pricing take place at the same time—with the builder working hand-in-hand with the designer—this approach can help keep a project within budget, and it can shorten preconstruction time on a project with a tight time frame. It works by combining communication and teamwork with the flexibility and cooperation of the design team to ensure the project objectives are understood by all so we meet the clients needs.
