Why Use a Build-to-Suit Group?

Many companies have internal construction management teams that handle internal construction, maintenance, and building improvements. However, build-to-suit requirements are more unique and complex, requiring a unique set of skills, tools, and processes. Our team removes the risk that accompanies these “uncommon” real estate transactions by providing superior results and cost savings.

Our Methodology

For large, industrial build-to-suit projects, C&W deploys to the field specialized practitioners, led by a Project Executive, where and when build-to-suits are being considered. These initial key team members are highly experienced in working with transactional leaders, clients, and their extended teams of developers, contractors, third party logistics providers (as appropriate), and local jurisdictions having authority. The C&W team is responsible for setting the governing rules for a given assignment and ensuring the project’s foundational documents have within them the language needed to ensure a positive outcome for our client. Initially, leadership is provided by a Project Executive, while themarket-based Project Manager and Assistant Project Manager provide support. Together, these team members drive the assignment from initial concept discussions all the way through the completion of construction documents, bidding, construction, and occupancy. In addition, they play a pivotal role in building the overall team, establishing communications protocols (type, frequency, format), developing and/or reviewing scopes of work for each team member, and working, as appropriate, with our clients’ procurement, logistics, operations, finance, and HR teams.
