Contractor's Representation

VN Services will increase your profitability on your project by being your advocate, protecting your interests and keeping a consistent focus on the details of managing the job. Keeping the focus on solving problems and moving your project forward protects you and your profits by pushing the job towards completion instead of a dispute.

We have nearly three decades of experience and understand all aspects of the commercial construction industry. VN Services will act as an advocate for the contractor, reducing the risk that the contractor will be held responsible for delays, additional work or any extra charges that are inappropriate.

VN Services' Contractor's Representation Services are a systematic approach that can be applied to all aspects of the project, especially information. The Construction Management Association of America (CMAA) states that a critical success factor in every construction endeavor is effective communication during all phases of the project.

We offer a process of professional oversight that is applied to the planning, design and construction of a project from inception to completion for the purpose of controlling time, scope, cost and quality.

Although all projects are different, a systematic approach can be applied to the process of managing any project. VN Services' approach includes applying the functions of a Contractor's Representative to each phase of the project. Those functions and phases include:
