Owner’s Advisor

Maintaining project integrity

An owner’s advisor (OA) is a third-party firm responsible for providing support to the owner during design and construction. An OA is particularly helpful during collaborative delivery projects. The role of maintaining communication lines is extremely important to collaborative delivery. These types of projects typically have multiple designers and contractors, many of them often on site all at once. The OA’s focus at those times is to make sure each party is kept up to date on project status and requirements and making sure project goals are maintained at each step. By using Garver’s OA services early in the project, we can flush out project details while maintaining project integrity. And because cost effectiveness is an integral part of any project, Garver’s OA services can help review deliverables and keep projects on course by identifying potential impacts and mitigating their effect.
