ERES Management Owner's Representative Services

Construction Management & Owner's Representation

Your fiduciary advocate on the build

Introduce standardized, institutional process into your custom home build. ERES Management represents the owner — never the contractor — from feasibility through post-construction walkthrough.

What ERES requires bidders to show

Direct labor$1,420,000
Direct materials$1,270,000
General conditions$285,000
Insurance and bonds$45,000
Contractor profit — negotiated separately$230,000
Contract total$3,250,000

Illustrative figures. Every GC in the process bids the same transparent, data-based format, so the numbers can be compared against each other — and profit becomes a negotiated line item rather than an unknown.

The arc of a project

Five phases, one advocate

A custom home fails in the gaps — between the estimate and the bid, between the drawings and the field, between the invoice and the work actually in place. ERES covers the gaps.

01Pre-Design & Feasibility

Site due diligence, first real budget, delivery strategy, team assembly.

02Design

Constructability review, milestone estimating, permitting and entitlements.

03Bidding

Multiple-GC bid process on a transparent, data-based cost format.

04Construction Administration

Weekly site meetings, quality verification, change orders, pay applications.

05Closeout

Punch list, certificate of occupancy, warranties, 11-month post-construction walkthrough.

End-To-End Management covers all five phases. Construction Management engagements begin at phase 04. We aren't constrained by our process — we will step in wherever needed to get wins for your project.

Why independent

The contractor has a representative. So should you.

Every other party on your project is paid to protect their own scope. ERES has no financial relationship with the general contractor, no markup on the trades, and nothing to gain from a change order. The only interest we represent is yours.

Quality is verified before money moves

Payment applications are reviewed against work actually in place, and veteran tradesmen inspect the milestones that get buried — foundation, framing, waterproofing, rough-ins, insulation. Mistakes get repaired before the GC is paid, not after drywall.
