     For more than 20 years, Tellamco Inc. has provided pre-construction and construction services on  building projects ranging from small Inn renovations to the new construction of multi-million dollar luxury hotels. Our rigorous scheduling and constructability reviews, high quality and safety standards, and finely honed construction management skills enable us to successfully handle design and construction challenges cost-effectively on the most aggressive schedules.

Planning
Tellamco Construction will assist the client in putting together a team of architects and engineers most qualified for the project. We will also provide support for owners, design teams, or contractors in the areas of constructability review, value engineering, and document control. Feasibility is always a consideration for any project. Our staff will put together reports outlining issues such as cost, construction schedule, environmental obstacles, zoning, and permitting. Early discovery of any of these items presenting a problem will save the owner both time and money.

Schematic Estimating
With project delivery time becoming faster and faster, any delays along the development/ design phase of the project can be detrimental. Tellamco Inc. provides cost estimating early on in the project design phase so the owner can be sure that the project budget is still on target. By monitoring the cost as the design progresses, major redesigning of the project can be avoided. To redesign a project uses up considerable time and financial resources.

Construction Management
From the moment Tellamco Inc. begins a project our clients can be assured a qualified construction management team is going over each phase of the project from start to finish. Our skilled management team has a proven track record of bringing projects in on time and on budget. This is made possible in large part because of the continuous monitoring by Tellamco's on site construction managers who have extensive knowledge of the hospitality renovation industry. These Tellamco employees oversee manpower, quality control and daily scheduling, as well as managing unforeseen obstacles that may arise during any phase of the construction process. This all translates into a smooth continuous flow of communication between management and labor resulting in more productivity and efficiency while limiting valuable lodging downtime. By maintaining these qualified on site construction managers, Tellamco Inc. can offer a guaranteed bid pricing that provides each client the security of knowing their project will not unexpectedly overrun tight budget constraints.

Negotiated Contract
Tellamco prefers to utilize negotiated contracts allowing the client the luxury of avoiding the whole bid process. The benefits of the negotiated contract include time savings as well as financial savings. Normally a contractor with a proven track record and previous experience working with the client is selected. Once selected, Tellamco will help with time saving short cuts. Typically the plans do not need to be as detailed for negotiated work as they would for a competitively bid project. This is another place to save time and resources.

Design-Build
This contracting mechanism provides the client with a single point of contractual responsibility for all design and construction matters, thus improving the coordination between architect and contractor. This approach may benefit the client in terms of improved time and/or reduced cost. Using this method, the owner is often relieved of responsibilities including design oversights and unforeseen conditions.

Quality Control
Quality control services are an integral part of any Tellamco project. Our on site employees and Construction Management team constantly review and maintain a proactive punch list in every phase of operation from start to finish. This ensures the job is done right the first time. With approximately 30% of the work done directly by company employees, Tellamco can maintain the high levels of customer satisfaction expected on every project we undertake. Rest assured no project, regardless of size, will pass the demanding Tellamco quality control standards until it has been checked and verified by experienced company employees. A full Quality Management Plan covering both design and construction functions, on and off site, including but not limited to designing, procuring, shipping, handling, storing, sampling, fabricating, installing, constructing, assembling, inspecting and testing by in-house personnel or an independent third party consultant is provided where required to maintain the overall quality of the project.
