Project Development
We recognize that design
excellence includes consideration for both the project requirements and
regulatory guidelines. Our company's services span the spectrum from
initial site assessment, land planning, and market analysis to
engineering design and construction supervision. This breadth of
services demands a holistic approach to planning and design which often
varies from one site to another.
There are no draftsmen at JGT;
design professionals use computer-aided software and sophisticated
programs to express their unique designs.
The firm utilizes AutoCAD and Land Development
Desktop and is also capable of interaction with GIS Data systems.
An internal, PC based computer network system
provides seamless communication on a real time basis. Our Internet
access allows easy communication with clients, consultants, and
sub-consultants.
JGT uses digital cameras and videos for prompt
importation into computer format for inclusion in reports and studies.
Using Microsoft Project, JGT works closely with
consultants and sub-consultants and develops schedules for design and
construction that create timely delivery of projects. Quality control is
emphasized internally and consultants are employed for specialized
project requirements.
Our professional staff has over 100 years combined
experience to utilize in construction administration and inspection.
Project Scope, Design Development and Client
Approval
The planning and design of any
project requires a realistic assessment of the market driven factors,
the intended use, the site-specific parameters, and the environmental
restraints.
An apparently successful planning project that is drawn
into lengthy delays from the permitting process does the client little
good. JGT will work closely with the client representatives and
reviewing agencies to develop a project design that will addresses the
project demands while economically satisfying the construction and
regulatory parameters.
The firm has over eighteen years experience working with
local, state and federal agencies.
Mr. Taylor has over thirty-five years experience working
with agencies and public groups of all types.
Scheduling and Cost Control
Schedules on rigid time line projects require
extensive communication between project members. Once the project scope is
established, the value of knowledgeable people who have worked together
becomes prominent. There is little time to
develop and ride a learning curve, so design professionals who already
know what to do are needed to keep the project on schedule.
An internal computer network system provides
seamless communication on a real time basis.
JGT's existing clients include large corporations
or public agencies such as Nucor, Jacobs Engineering, General Dynamics,
City of Charleston, Charleston County Park and Recreation Commission,
International Paper, Texaco Lubricants Company, Westinghouse Credit, and
Canal Industries.
We also have a vast number of noncommercial clients
whom we have worked for on smaller or residential projects.
These satisfied clients know that they can call on
JGT to meet their demanding project needs in a timely manner.
Often construction cost and scope of work are at
odds, e.g., "the owner may want more than he has a budget for."
While in the preliminary planning and design of
the project, we look for alternative designs in materials, construction
methods, and construction phasing that will still allow the client to
complete a facility in a timely manner within the budget.
Often we develop alternative pricing schemes in
the bid documents that allow the client to competitively evaluate the
alternatives during the bidding process.
