CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT
Newfield's Construction Management teams are characterized by experience, integrity, outstanding communication skills and the understanding that they are there to serve the client. This expertise provides value to our new and repeat clients, from the Project Feasibility stage through Project Close-out. The Pre-construction phase services are particularly important as this is the phase where Newfield lays the ground work for success in:
- Development of preliminary budgets and budget tracking throughout the project
- Building of master schedules
- Analysis and input to design concepts - Value Engineering
- Constructability reviews to minimize issues during construction
- LEED point accrual contributions
- Construction planning, scheduling and coordination through owner occupancy
Our CM services are split between "at-Risk" and "Agency" representation and we are confident of project success under both forms of agreement.
GENERAL CONTRACTING
By utilizing the latest management tools, Newfield's construction professionals coordinate the various trade subcontractors to assure that your project meets the stated goals of quality, time and cost. We believe the proper mix of experienced project professionals, from Project Managers and Superintendents to Project Engineers and Quality Control and Safety experts, is essential to a successful project outcome. We can offer this service to our clients on a cost plus, negotiated, guaranteed maximum price (GMP) or lump sum basis.
DESIGN-BUILD
Newfield's Design/Build program offers clients a single point of responsibility to enhance quality, cost and schedule adherence. By combining a project's design and construction elements into one team, Newfield is capable of providing early Pre-construction services, expediting permits and mobilization while accelerating construction by overlapping Design and Engineering work with Procurement and Construction services. This service lessens your administrative burden and reduces the time and cost that is allocated in the typical Design-Bid-Build process.
OWNER'S REPRESENTATION
Flexibility to adhere to your project goals is our focus. Newfield professionals provide a full range of services from management of the total project including planning, design, construction, installation, fit-out and occupancy; or can act as your advisor and consultant on various project issues. Based upon the needs of the program or project(s), Newfield will utilize the latest in management technology and systems to carry out the desired services.

BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING (BIM)
As a leader in the construction industry, Newfield Construction has embraced Building Information Modeling (BIM) to manage the construction process. We work with Design Teams to integrate their models with models from the trade contracting community, providing clash detection, scheduling and costing information with which to manage the project. This in turn leads to greater project efficiencies in the areas of Schedule, Budget and Quality. Newfield also has the ability to refine the model to the Facilities Management level, allowing for clients to manage their building through BIM.
