By providing Construction Documents services for other Architects, Abell+Crozier+Davis Architects have allowed them to be flexible with thier work load or simply concentrate on the design portion of the project. This has been a very fluid relationship with the scope of work sliding to accomodate the prime Architect’s wishes. The scope of work can be a simple break with ACDA taking over at the end of Design Development performing the Construction Documents phase including specifications and handing the project back over to the prime Architect for Bidding and Construction Administration. It can also be taken over at any point along the line where ACDA becomes the professional of record provided all licensing laws are abided by.

Office and CAD standards are always discussed and incorporated in a manner that provides an economical and mutally beneficial manner.

When performing work outside your region, the most important asset for an Architect during the Construction phase is having boots on the ground. Whether performing Construction Administration services for our own work or as a liason to out of town Architects, Abell+Crozier+Davis Architects adhears to a singular method of tracking construction activity. By closely following all AIA protocols, ACDA is able to maintain tight control over tracking of submittals, changes, correspondence, and field progress. Each field visit is documented in written format and with photographs circulated to all parties. We believe in close adhearance to the Construction Documents while keeping communication lines open. Issues arise on every project, clearer heads always prevail.
