CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION PHASE
During the Construction Administration phase, Lowney Architecture administers the contract between you and the Contractor. This contract is based on our drawings and specifications. As he or she builds, we act as your representative by observing the progress of construction for conformance with our drawings and specifications, by providing clarifications to our drawings, or with your approval, making modifications to the design, which may impact the Contractor’s work. We also review Contractor’s Requests for Payment to verify they are billing you correctly, and review general construction progress for conformance to budget and schedule.

Typically, we recommend weekly site meetings between you, the contractor and Lowney Architecture to review the work and discuss any issues.

When the Contractor is almost finished construction, we can also perform a “Punch List” to direct their work towards completion prior to your final payment to them. Throughout this process we represent your interests to the contractor as defined in our drawings and specifications.
