6. Overview of the Proposition
Considerations in using the CM/MC Project Management or Principal Contracting methods:
When R&M Developments propose a scheme to work with Arcadis on; It maybe that the schemes cashflow maybe outside R&M’s
capacity. Our partnership allows us to offer the professional experiences off Arcadis/R&M who work together on each other’s projects.
This CM option allows R&M to be able to work within large and more, complex projects bringing 37 years of trading history as Building &
Civil engineering Specialists who specialise in MMC/OSC / Hybrid construction/ Affordable Homes/ sympathetic Construction & Lifetime
Poverty tackling via innovation in the Home.
For suitably qualified developers, funding partners and registered providers can rely on Arcadis to hire and manage the design team with
Principal Contractor (R&M). This team will be specialists at their own trade and the markets best off the best only.
In the construction management process the CM can be interfaced at different points throughout the design process. To clarify Arcadis will
WRAP all collateral warranties under their Professional Indemnity insurances for all designs and installations on site. Arcadis Will also be
responsible for the projects cash flow responsibilities liaising with the funders monitoring agent directly on all matters. Providing security for
everyone involved within the project’s construction period. The CM is often involved in the pre and post stages of the design phase.
It is advantageous for the CM to be involved in the early stages to review the design, provide value engineering solutions, make
Arcadis/R&M recommendations and offer budgetary assistance.
Construction Management has gained favour in the private sector and often-times replaces the traditional concept of a lump sum contract
between the owner and the contractor. Construction management allows the owner to hire an architect and construction manager (“CM”) at
the same time with no competitive bidding by contractors. The owner, architect, and the CM are a “team” who work together to design a
project, and once a project is designed, the CM is the actual contractor for the project.
