Owner Representative · Budget & Schedule Control · Construction Quality Management · Team Management · Project Completion — PDC acts as your trusted representative on the ground — managing the contractor, tracking budget and schedule, controlling quality, managing inspection teams and reports, and delivering the finished product to you. You stay informed. We handle the build.
Designed for foreign investors and owners who cannot be on-site daily — we are the professional presence that protects your interests from day one of construction through final handover.
Owner Representation · Construction Contract Management · Budget Control
Construction Management is the hands-on management of the construction phase on behalf of the owner. Once a contractor is under contract, PDC assumes the role of owner's representative on the ground — managing the general contractor, trade subcontractors, and major suppliers, monitoring progress against the approved schedule and budget, approving payment against verified construction milestones, controlling change orders, coordinating technical inspections of all on-site disciplines, and reporting weekly to the owner with photos and milestone updates.
This service is distinct from related PDC offerings. Project Management covers the full-cycle PMI framework from design through delivery. Construction Technical Inspections fulfill the CFIA technical inspector role for the construction as legal compliance to CFIA. Construction Bidding & Contracting handles the selection and hiring of the contractor. Construction Management picks up where contracting leaves off — managing the builder every day until the keys are in your hand.
The best construction results come when PDC performs the complete service: Construction Bidding & Contracting + Construction Management & Project Completion.
Contractor Kickoff · Schedule Baseline · Site Readiness
Once the contractor is under contract, PDC manages the critical startup phase — from the moment the builder begins mobilizing people and purchasing materials, through the first day of active construction. This is the bridge between contract signing and breaking ground, and getting it right sets the tone for everything that follows:
| Construction schedule baseline | Detailed Gantt chart with milestones and critical path agreed with contractor |
| Budget breakdown by work package | Cost plan aligned to contract scope for weekly tracking |
| Site logistics plan | Access, staging areas, material storage, and safety zones defined before mobilization |
| Contractor mobilization checklist | Permits in place, insurance certificates verified, key personnel assigned |
| Owner communication protocol | Reporting cadence, escalation path, and decision turnaround expectations agreed upfront |
Weekly Reviews · Contractor Accountability · Cost Control
Once construction is underway, PDC is the constant professional presence the contractor answers to. Our active management covers every dimension of the build:
| Weekly on-site construction reviews | Written progress reports delivered to the owner |
| Budget tracking vs. actual expenditure | Weekly cost reports flagging variances early — before they become overruns |
| Contractor payment certification | Invoices approved only for work actually completed and verified in the field |
| Change order control | Every contractor change request reviewed, negotiated, and approved or rejected before cost is committed |
| Subcontractor & consultant coordination | Structural, MEP, civil, landscape, and specialty systems technical inspections all coordinated through PDC |
| Material procurement tracking | Delivery schedules, lead times, and substitution approvals managed to avoid delays |
| Photo documentation & milestone reporting | Full visual record of progress delivered to owner weekly with milestone status |
Technical Compliance · Drawing Conformance · Materials
PDC coordinates with the Technical Inspectors and environmental inspectors to ensure all work conforms to approved construction drawings, technical specifications, and environmental commitments. Quality control is proactive — we flag non-conformances and manage their resolution before they become expensive corrections.
Our on-site reviews verify that materials match specifications, that structural elements are executed as drawn, that MEP rough-ins are correctly positioned, and that finishes meet the standard committed in the contract. We maintain a continuous non-conformance log and track each item to resolution.
Punch Lists · Close-Out · Pending Lists · Owner Handover
The final phase is as important as any other. PDC manages the complete close-out process to ensure you receive a fully documented, legally complete project:
| Final walkthrough & punch list | Scope verification through Construction Drawings, Technical Specifications, and Construction Contract |
| Punch list supervision | Each item tracked to full resolution before final payment is certified |
| As-built drawings | All record drawings collected and reviewed from contractor and every consultant discipline |
| Warranties & operation manuals | Equipment warranties, O&M manuals, and maintenance contracts collected and organized |
| Legal close-out documents | Occupancy permit, CFIA sign-off, utility connections, and environmental closure obtained |
| Final payment certification | Contractor's final invoice approved only upon full close-out compliance |
| Formal project handover | Structured owner orientation and complete transfer of all project documentation |
