Services
Construction Monitoring
Our Construction Monitoring services helps protect banks, lenders, and financial institutions from the risks inherent in construction lending. NECM construction loan monitoring services include plan and cost reviews and construction loan inspections. Our multidisciplinary team of engineering, architectural, and construction professionals has been effectively protecting lenders with construction loan monitoring services since 2010.
Construction loan risks fall into three categories: Overfunding work that’s not complete, funding troubled projects plagued with issues that impede the construction process, and funding for trades that don’t get paid by the General Contractor. NECM works to mitigate all three. As one of the Northeast United States’ leading construction consulting firms, NECM has performed construction consulting and construction loan monitoring for thousands of projects, with project construction costs ranging from $250,000 to over $100 million. Our clients include both public and private sector organizations, and both new construction and complex renovations. Projects include office, industrial, educational, retail, single & multi-family residential, religious, manufacturing, healthcare and laboratory construction.
Our construction loan monitoring services include initial Plan and Cost Reviews and Construction Loan Inspections to provide clients with innovative design solutions that are functional, aesthetically pleasing, and environmentally sustainable. Our team of experts have the skills and experience to deliver projects on time and within budget.
Plan and Cost Review
Plan and Cost Reviews help lenders evaluate and mitigate risk on their construction projects before construction begins. Our team of professionals review the plans to ensure they are complete, detailed, and constructible, to minimize unforeseen costs after construction starts. We also review line item cost breakdowns of the construction budget to ensure costs are in line with current market pricing for both labor and materials.
NECM’s plan and cost reviews include an examination of the 3Cs of Construction: Cost, Constructability, and Contingencies.
- Cost: We evaluate requested fund amounts to ensure that these costs are appropriate for the job and proportioned correctly, to avoid front-loading and cost padding.
- Constructability: We review every aspect of construction plans to ensure that they are adequately detailed, account for real-world conditions, and that they are unlikely to create unnecessary change orders and rework.
- Contingencies: We review allowances for contingencies to ensure they’re in line with industry standards and appropriate for the specific conditions of the individual project.
Construction Inspections
Construction Inspections protect lender’s investment while the project is in the construction phase. They help ensure that the work is completed in a timely and workmanlike manner. Our construction professionals walk the job site at regular intervals to ensure that the contractor and trades have completed the work they are invoicing for, and that the quality of the work meets industry standards, the demands of the contract and the specifications. We also review change order requests to ensure they are appropriate, and the costs are reasonable for the scope of work.
Our multidisciplinary team brings expertise in construction techniques and materials, as well as electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems. We inspect all of these components at each stage of the funding process to ensure that work being invoiced is in fact in place. When requested by the bank, we also inspect off-site stored materials to ensure that requests for the funding of these materials is appropriate, and that the materials are stored correctly in an insured environment.
