Management

Whether your project needs additional support for an existing staff, or full-time project representation, Teahan Ltd can provide the service and expertise you need. During pre-construction, Teahan Ltd has developed program scopes, schedules and budgets, has drafted RFPs and has participated on selection commttees to help owners select Design and Construction Professionals for their projects. Teahan Ltd. has written and negotiated contract language and has managed design, general contractor, construction management and design-build contracts. During construction, Teahan Ltd has provided contract management, budgeting, scheduling, cost accounting, change order negotiation and cost estimating services. We have worked with a variety of cloud-based construction management applications.

Schedules

Baseline schedules and monthly schedule updates are often contract requirements.  Teahan Ltd can provide schedule development and monthly updates for contractors to meet those contract requirements.


Owners should be reviewing and commenting on their contractor’s monthly schedule submittals to protect their interests in the event of future delay claims. Teahan Ltd can review and report on schedule submittals received from contractors to identify early when delays are threatening a project’s completion. Early delay recognition allows owners and contractors more options to ensure timely completion.

 

 

Claims

Disputes are a regular occurrence in construction contracting and often are based in contract terms that inequitably allocate risk to the parties. Jim contributes to the ConsensusDocs suite of contract form documents as a member of the Construction Owners Association of America Documents Committee. He has reviewed, analyzed and resolved, through negotiation, dozens of claims. Jim has been deposed and has testified as an expert witness in arbitration cases and in the courtroom.
