Open Book Cost Plus
Documented project costs plus an agreed SCS management fee. We explain the fee structure and how costs are reviewed. A cost-plus budget is not a fixed price.
How we build
From first idea to a working building.
Good construction starts with decisions made in the right order. We help turn your intended use and property information into a defined project path.

Building concept- Preconstruction
01Start with your building and property
Tell us the use, location, approximate size, and goals. We review what you already have and what information is still needed.
- Preconstruction
02Define the preliminary scope
Discuss the building configuration, major requirements, responsibilities, and a rough estimate basis. Early budgets are preliminary and are not fixed-price bids.
- Preconstruction
03Plan and coordinate approvals
Under a separate preconstruction agreement, coordinate the design, engineering, and permit work included in that scope. Additional surveys, reports, or specialty services are identified as needed.
- Construction
04Agree on construction
Before physical construction begins, establish a separate construction agreement with the accepted scope, pricing structure, payment schedule, and responsibilities.
- Construction
05Build and complete the contracted work
Coordinate site preparation, concrete, building procurement, delivery, erection, and included finish work. Complete applicable inspections, final details, and closeout for the accepted scope.
