Delivery Method: General Contracting
Comprehensive estimation and expert construction execution based on completed construction documents.
Comprehensive estimation and expert construction execution based on completed construction documents.
Upon completion of a full set of construction documents, CHA Construction provides a comprehensive estimate based upon the completed drawings. This is the traditional, time-tested delivery method in which design and construction are handled sequentially.
CHA manages all subcontractors, procurement, and on-site construction activities — delivering a completed project in full accordance with the architect's construction documents and the owner's specifications.
General Contracting is familiar and well-understood by most owners and lenders. When a complete set of construction documents exists, it remains a reliable and effective delivery path.
Complete construction documents allow multiple contractors to provide comparable bids, giving you market-rate pricing and the ability to compare proposals objectively.
A fully documented scope means clear contract terms, defined deliverables, and reduced ambiguity about what is and isn't included in the work.
CHA brings 25+ years of commercial construction experience to every GC engagement — thorough subcontractor management, diligent scheduling, and transparent communication throughout.
The disadvantage of General Contracting is that costs are based on finished documents. There is no opportunity to shape or control the value of the project during design — if costs exceed budget, redesign is required.
If the completed construction documents produce bids over budget, the design must be revised and re-bid — adding weeks or months to the overall project schedule.
Design must be fully completed before construction can begin. This sequential approach typically results in a longer overall project timeline compared to Design Build or CM.
CHA receives completed construction documents from the architect and performs a thorough review before bidding.
We solicit competitive bids from pre-qualified subcontractors across all trades, ensuring best value for the owner.
A detailed estimate is assembled covering all labor, materials, subcontractors, permits, and general conditions.
Upon owner acceptance of the bid and contract execution, CHA mobilizes for construction immediately.
Full-time supervision, weekly owner meetings, and transparent schedule reporting throughout the build phase.
Punch list completion, certificate of occupancy, warranty documentation, and full project turnover to the owner.
If you already have complete construction documents and are ready to bid, General Contracting is a straightforward path. However, if you're earlier in the process, we strongly recommend exploring Design Build or Construction Management — both of which give CHA the opportunity to control costs and deliver better value from the outset.
