Pre-Construction Research Report (PCRR)
Pre-construction is a critical phase that establishes the foundation for successful vertical construction projects, focusing on comprehensive horizontal planning and preparation. This phase includes identifying soft costs—expenses essential for project readiness but not part of the actual construction process. These costs encompass fees for vital design services like MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) Design, Foundation Design, and various reports and surveys, including Topographic Surveys, Geotechnical Reports, and Soil Analysis Reports. Bedrock Building Group’s Pre-Construction Research Report (PCRR) provides an in-depth overview of these soft costs, outlining the scope and requirements and including their estimated pricing within the report. This ensures you have the necessary information to plan effectively, helping to ensure your estimated soft costs align with your overall project budget for a well-organized and cost-efficient project from the outset.
