Effective Cost Management
C. P. O’Halloran Associates provides comprehensive construction cost management services to design professionals, institutions, and developers.
A sole focus on construction cost estimating makes us efficient. Many years of in-depth evaluation of alternative materials, building systems, market conditions, constructability, and risk enable us to optimize costs with stated functional, programmatic, and design goals to attain the best possible result.
C. P. O’Halloran Associates is a certified Small Business Enterprise (SBE).
Get the Building You Want at the Cost You Expected
We use a consultative approach to communicate the cost impact and risk of complex design, program, and technical choices. Our models evaluate prices by both building component and building program, enabling project teams to make confident consensus decisions, based on a clearly defined set of cost parameters and goals.
About
Know the Costs and Risks before the Documents are Complete
With our deep knowledge of supply and demand market conditions for labor and construction materials, CPO can deliver owners tangible value by evaluating project elements and giving cost insights during early stages of design, before expensive documentation costs are incurred.
Guiding Principles:
Anticipate costs by understanding building programs, potential risks, and design development
Forecast future costs, market conditions, and areas of uncertainty or volatility
Communicate with a report format that is understood by people with varying degrees of familiarity with design and construction
Field Experience Improves Accuracy
CPO’s successful track record in anticipating, forecasting, and communicating construction costs set us apart from other estimators. Our professional staff are trained as cost engineers, with both field and office experience. They undergo continuous training in conceptual and detailed estimating.
