Construction Revision

"Your vision, our drive: Quality assurance through construction revision"

A construction audit should be part of forward-looking construction controlling and sustainable risk management of construction projects. It should not only take place in the event of concrete suspicions (ad hoc) or retrospectively (ex post) of unsuccessfully completed construction measures and investments, but is also useful during an ongoing construction project (ex ante) in order to increase the quality level in view of the external audit.

To use
a building revision

Through individual solutions and ensuring quality standards, you should also be protected from quality defects and excessive construction costs due to, for example, deadline and cost overruns, price agreements, inadequate tenders, manipulation, etc. and you should always have fair competitive conditions.

By identifying and analyzing risks and identifying potential for improvement, asset losses can be avoided, savings can be realized and the sustainability of economic activity can be ensured.

The construction audit also serves an optimization process and thus ultimately improves quality, controlling and reporting.

We accompany you through all sensitive areas of construction projects, with a key focus on the construction process review - from the development of the client's will through the selection of architects, planning, competitive tendering, awarding, construction implementation to acceptance, billing and the organizational installation of the warranty - managements.

By identifying and analyzing weak points and identifying potential for improvement, asset losses can be avoided, savings can be realized and the sustainability of economic activity can be ensured.

A process-oriented construction audit uncovers weak points and provides potential for optimization. These weaknesses can lie, for example, in the structural or process organization or in inadequately perceived risk management.

The process of a project and construction revision is methodically based on a systematically structured workflow of a large number of individual test points. They form the guide through the thicket of descriptions, service specifications (LVs), descriptions, calculations, data and plans to be revised.

Possible
Examination areas
can be...

Project management (deadline / costs / quality / processes)
Tendering and awarding of architectural and engineering services
Implementation of planning services
Tendering and awarding of construction services
Construction work
Change including supplement management
Billing for planning and construction services including all addenda
Acceptance of planning and construction services
Warranty management

The examinations can cover the entire examination segment of the above-mentioned areas or can also be commissioned as partial segments.
Depending on the order, we check and evaluate both construction projects and the processes taking place during construction.

Revision of

Architectural and engineering services (HOAI)

Revision - preventive, accompanying or ex post

A revision can be carried out as a preventative measure when drafting the contract, during the construction phase ex ante (accompanying) or ex post (retrospectively) and can help to improve and ensure the transparency, cost-effectiveness, quality and efficiency of architectural and engineering services.

The aim is to avoid asset losses, realize savings and ensure the sustainability of economic activity.

Recommendation for action

In the event of clear disruptions in performance or deviations from the agreed planning and/or construction target, a further damage defense will be issuedaccompanying testing is recommended.

If faulty or missing services become apparent during commissioning, theExamination must begin immediately.

A revision can provide added value in various phases of collaboration with architects and engineers.

Before signing the contract: A review allows potential contracts to be reviewed to ensure they contain clearly defined deliverables, appropriate timelines and budgets. This can help avoid misunderstandings and lay the foundation for a successful collaboration.

Participation in the selection and specialist planners: When selecting professional planners and specialist engineers, an audit can help to verify the qualifications and references of potential candidates. This can help to ensure that the professionals selected meet the requirements of the project.

Identifying opportunities and risks: An audit can help highlight potential opportunities and risks in the contracts. This can help the parties make informed decisions and prepare for potential challenges.

Evaluation of offers: Before accepting offers, revisions can help analyze the offers and ensure that they contain both appropriate fees and clear descriptions of the services.

After signing the contract: Even after the contract is closed, audits can add value by reviewing deliverables at different phases of the project. This can ensure that agreed standards are met and potential problems are identified early.

The process of a revision of architectural and engineering services is usually as follows:

We coordinate test points with you to enable an efficient and goal-oriented test to be carried out.
To carry out an audit, various documents are required depending on the time of the audit (before/after conclusion of the contract) and the audit objective. The requested documents are reviewed during a preliminary audit and checked to see whether they contain all the necessary information.
After viewing the documents, the review process (formal review) takes place.
Finally, the result is presented and explained in a test report.
If necessary, we support the client in the practical implementation of the complaints identified during the audit.

Services

To ensure that projects are carried out economically, asset losses are avoided, savings are realized and the sustainability of economic activity is ensured, we offer different "ad hoc" measures for ongoing construction work.
