Construction management and site
The project, built as it should be
The real quality of a building is decided on site: it takes presence, method and documents that protect the client.
The service
Construction management
Construction management (direzione lavori) is the technical supervision of the building site: we check that the contractor builds in conformity with the approved design and the building titles, monitor materials and workmanship, manage the details and decisions every site inevitably requires, and document the process through to the end of the works and the final declarations.
Present, well-organised construction management reduces defects, disputes and financial surprises: problems are intercepted as they arise, not once the works are finished.
- Architectural construction management and site supervision
- Checks of conformity with the design and the building titles
- Management of variations and construction details during the works
- End-of-works filings, certified notice of fitness for use (agibilità) and closing formalities
Safety, costs and contracts
Safety coordination at design and execution stage (CSP and CSE), where the law requires it, protects both client and workers: safety plans, the building maintenance file and checks on the contractors on site. The studio follows these aspects directly or with trusted qualified professionals, depending on the nature of the project.
On the financial side, we draw up bills of quantities to price works and costs before a contractor is chosen, prepare works specifications and contract templates that govern the technical and financial relationship, and keep the site accounts, verifying the work progress statements (SAL, stati di avanzamento lavori) before payments are authorised. Finally, we assist the client through the acceptance procedures.

Frequently asked questions
Before you start.
Is construction management mandatory?
For most works requiring a building title, a construction manager (direttore dei lavori) must be appointed; obligation aside, this is the figure who protects the client on the quality and conformity of what is built.
When is a safety coordinator required?
As a rule, whenever more than one contractor operates on site, even at different times. In that case a coordinator must be appointed for the design stage (CSP) and for the execution stage (CSE).
Why do I need a bill of quantities if I already have a quotation?
The bill of quantities makes quotations comparable: it lists quantities and works neutrally, so the contractors’ offers are assessed on the same items and costs stay under control as the works proceed.
How are payments to the contractor handled?
Through work progress statements: we verify that the works invoiced have actually been executed to a proper standard before the payments provided for in the contract are released.
