Preconstruction Planning

Pre-construction services are the planning, analysis, and coordination performed before construction begins. For hospitality and multi-family projects, these services are critical to controlling cost, maintaining schedule, and ensuring the design supports both guest experience and operational efficiency. PBC Hotel Construction utilizes this time  to align the owner’s vision, budget, and timeline before the first shovel hits the ground.

01.

Project Feasibility & Early Planning

We work with the owner, architect, and consultants to evaluate the project’s viability.
Key tasks include:

  • Preliminary cost models based on brand standards and past hotel projects
  • Site assessments and constructability reviews
  • Analysis of zoning, utilities, permitting paths, and development constraints
  • Early schedule planning to determine realistic opening dates

02.

Budget Development & Cost Estimating

Hospitality projects have specialized costs—guest rooms, public spaces, back-of-house, brand requirements, FF&E, and OS&E.
Pre-construction cost services include:

  • Conceptual estimates based on schematic design
  • Detailed line-item estimates as drawings progress
  • Brand-specific cost modeling (Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, IHG, etc.)
  • Value engineering options to keep the project within budget without sacrificing quality or guest experience

03.

Schedule Development & Phasing

Hotel and multi-family construction often includes complex sequencing for structural systems, MEP coordination, and interior finishes.
Scheduling services include:

  • Preliminary critical-path schedules
  • Long-lead item identification (elevators, chillers, switchgear, FF&E)
  • Milestone planning for permitting, financing, and brand reviews

4. Constructability Reviews

We can evaluate the design from the perspective of cost, efficiency, and practicality.
Examples:

  • Reviewing building systems for clarity and coordination
  • Ensuring hotel circulation flows are constructible and meet brand standards
  • Identifying potential conflicts (e.g., MEP routing, waterproofing details, shaft layouts)

5. Subcontractor & Supplier Engagement

Early involvement of qualified hospitality subcontractors improves cost accuracy and constructability.
Services include:

  • Soliciting preliminary pricing from key trades
  • Identifying local labor capacity and market risks
  • Reviewing material availability and lead times

 

 

6. Value Engineering & Design Optimization

PBC Hotel Construction collaborates with design teams to recommend cost-effective or more durable alternatives.
Typical VE focus areas:

  • Guestroom finishes and bathroom packages
  • Lobby, bar, and amenity area materials
  • Mechanical systems (VRF, PTAC, split systems)
  • Structural efficiencies
  • Energy-efficient systems to reduce long-term operating costs

07.

Permitting & Regulatory Coordination

Hospitality and multi-family projects require strict compliance with local codes, ADA requirements, and brand guidelines.
Pre-construction services include:

  • Coordinating early with city officials and fire marshals
  • Supporting permit submittals
  • Ensuring design meets accessibility and life-safety codes

08.

Procurement Planning

Hotels rely heavily on timely delivery of both construction materials and FF&E/OS&E.
The GC develops:

  • Long-lead procurement strategies
  • FF&E integration timelines with designers and purchasing agents
  • Logistics plans for phased delivery of materials

09.

Final Pre-Construction Deliverables

At the end of the pre-construction phase, PBC Hotel typically provides:

  • A Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP), Lump Sum, or negotiated contract
  • A final construction schedule
  • A complete subcontracting plan
  • A logistics and safety plan
  • A detailed scope of work aligned with construction documents
