2 Program Management ::: CPM Scheduling ::: Cost Estimating ::: Value Engineering ::: Constructability Analysis ::: Extension of Staff ::: Phasing/Logistics Planning LiRo s Program and Construction Management Group Managing complex facility and infrastructure construction projects requires a diverse, yet cohesive, set of skills: engineering, architecture, and construction expertise; to ensure quality, scheduling, estimating, and management expertise to keep projects on track; and an understanding of a broad range of facility types to maintain safe, uninterrupted operations. LiRo offers exactly this set of skills. Our program managers and construction managers are drawn from hospitals, universities, and public construction agencies, building everything from bridges to treatment plants. Most are licensed engineers and architects, and many have worked for the nation s top construction contractors. Backed by our outstanding A/E talent, a depth of experienced inspection personnel, and the latest tools and technology, they consistently deliver the crucial insights needed to meet schedules and budgets while maintaining uninterrupted operations.

3 Our Services Pre-Construction One of the best ways to ensure a successful construction project is to take the right steps during the pre-construction phase. Drawing from a local staff of approximately 400 personnel, LiRo has the engineers, architects, estimators, schedulers, and other construction professionals to excel in providing vital pre-construction services. Among the services we provide are: design review, cost estimating, value engineering, CPM scheduling, constructability review and LEED-compliance assessment. Comprehensive Construction Management/Build On comprehensive CM contracts, LiRo not only handles all of the above project control services, but also provides a spectrum of services spanning pre-construction, construction, and close-out, including constructability review, value engineering, QA/QC inspection, project controls, and project safety. On CM/Build contracts, LiRo holds the construction contract and is responsible for the various subcontracts on these assignments, running the project on the owner s behalf, and making sure all work is carried out to the owner s criteria. Our goal is to free you from the day-to-day challenges of managing the work. We offer our clients maximum flexibility when it comes to the extent of our services on any given project. You may choose to retain overall control of a project, holding the construction contract, while relying on us for more traditional construction support services. In these circumstances, we can readily tailor our services to fill your specific needs, providing some or all of the functions described above, while you take a more active, hands-on role.

With a plentiful pool of experienced and talented CM professionals, LiRo can quickly mobilize an individual or a full team to carry out widely varying types of projects of any duration. We carefully assign qualified staff for maximum compatibility with the particular requirements of any given client and project. Program Management Managing multiple overlapping projects, often at different sites, requires management and coordination skill sets beyond construction management. On these programs, we combine our big picture management capabilities with the specific insight and skills gained on our wide-ranging construction projects an ideal combination for success on complex construction programs. Project Controls To keep a project s cost and schedule on track, LiRo relies on a robust combination of leading edge software, proven methods, and construction expertise. We analyze all the variables, contain costs by minimizing or eliminating change orders, and stay vigilant against any price creep. From inception through close-out, we work proactively to achieve your goals, cost, and schedule.

6 Key Strengths The ability to anticipate unexpected challenges is the key to a well-managed project. Responsiveness Many companies claim to be client-centered and responsive. At LiRo, this philosophy is deliberately woven into everything we do on every project from signing the contracts to project close-out. We respond positively, quickly, and with the client s best interests as top priority. It s the kind of service that can only be found in a single-owner company like LiRo. Proactive Approach Every project has its own unique challenges. The ability to anticipate them is key to a well-managed project. We anticipate the future based on our experience and collective insight. We identify the pitfalls and areas that require our focus and involvement, and we develop mitigation measures and work-around plans. Ultimately, we prevent schedule slippage and contain costs. Westchester County Courthouse, White Plains, NY (Client: Westchester County Department of Public Works) Albany Houses, Brooklyn, NY (Client: NYC Housing Authority) Open Communication Our group s experience on multi-site, concurrent construction projects has taught us that collaboration and communication promote cooperation among team members and contribute greatly to each project s success. LiRo s PM/ CM group encourages communication in a structured, yet open, environment. We make a habit of keeping our clients fully informed about work status and issues that could affect construction process. Above all, we are forthright about the decisions that must be made to keep the project on track. Focus on Quality At LiRo, we understand that it s not enough to consistently provide on-time, within-budget performance; we must also build quality into each project. To that end, we develop project-specific QA/QC procedures manuals that are utilized by our staff to ensure project quality. As a rule, we regularly conduct independent audits of our project teams and overall job quality.
