Services

General contracting, construction management and consultation — with the pre-construction work that decides whether the rest of it goes well.

01 — Pre-Construction

The phase where money is actually saved.

By the time a project is out to bid, most of its cost is already fixed. Wilco's pre-construction services exist to influence that number while it can still move.

01

Feasibility Studies

Can this site carry this program at this budget? We test the assumption before you commit capital to it.

02

Value Engineering

Systematic review of systems, assemblies and finishes to reduce cost without compromising the building.

03

Site Logistics & Planning

Crane picks, staging, street closures, deliveries and phasing — resolved on paper before they become a field problem.

04

Estimating

Financial cost projections at every design milestone, so the budget and the drawings never drift apart unnoticed.

05

Design Professional Coordination

We sit between architect, engineers and consultants and make the documents agree with each other.

06

Municipality Submission & Planning

Permit strategy, approvals and the local process — handled by a team that has been through it and understands what reviewers look for.

02 — Delivery

Three ways to engage us.

General Contracting

We carry the risk.

Wilco holds the trade contracts, the schedule and the guaranteed number. You get a single point of accountability for the build.

  • Guaranteed Maximum Price
  • Subcontractor buyout & management
  • Schedule & cost control
  • Safety, QA/QC and closeout
Construction Management

We manage the build.

You keep the trade contracts; we run the project. Suited to owners with in-house capability who need professional oversight.

  • Trade procurement & leveling
  • Design coordination
  • Budget & schedule reporting
  • Field supervision
Owner's Representation

We sit on your side.

An independent set of eyes on your project — reviewing pay applications, change orders, schedule and quality on your behalf.

  • Contractor & consultant oversight
  • Change order review
  • Progress & payment certification
  • Risk reporting to ownership

Contracting approach

Guaranteed Maximum Price, open book.

Wilco operates primarily through Guaranteed Maximum Price contracts with open-book management. The owner sees the same subcontractor pricing, allowances and contingency we do.

  • A ceiling on cost, so the downside is defined from day one.
  • Full visibility into every trade bid and buyout number.
  • Savings against the GMP return to the project, not to us.
  • Contingency that is tracked and reported, not buried.
