This 97,000‑square‑foot new‑build car dealership was successfully completed on schedule and within budget using a collaborative construction management delivery method.
From the outset, the project team focused on maintaining schedule certainty while coordinating complex construction activities and procurement requirements.
To support timely delivery, the project was tendered sequentially. This approach allowed critical path items, including piling and structural steel, to be identified early and procured well in advance. By addressing these elements proactively, the team was able to reduce risk, maintain momentum on site, and minimize potential impacts to the construction schedule. Early procurement also supported better coordination between trades and allowed construction activities to progress efficiently as the project advanced.
Throughout the build, close collaboration between the client, consultants, trade partners, and the Chandos team played a key role in maintaining alignment on schedule, cost, and quality expectations. The collaborative construction management approach provided transparency and flexibility, allowing the team to respond effectively to project needs as they arose while keeping overall objectives in focus.
The client expressed strong satisfaction with the outcome of the project, noting that the team “delivered on all expectations.” Particular recognition was given to the on‑site leadership, with the superintendent praised for going “beyond the expected parameters of his job.” This feedback reflects the level of care, professionalism, and accountability demonstrated throughout the construction process.
By combining early planning, strategic procurement, and a collaborative delivery model, the project was completed as intended, meeting both schedule and budget goals while delivering a high‑quality new dealership facility for the client.
