PROJECT STEPS

  • Projects begin with a conversation (or email thread) about the scope of your project: Timeline, budget and work needed

  • Client agrees to pay $100 for a detailed project review, site visit if needed, and development of initial estimate, and generally, to establish feasibility.

  • One or more Hay Runner staff visit the site, take measurements and discuss more project details. A contract with a project plan and estimate follow, and if agreed upon, the project moves forward.

  • All aspects of the project that need architectural, interior or systems design to acquire a permit(s) are prepared. Hay Runner expedites this process to move to the build phases quickly and more design may be required later in the process.

  • Hay Runner designers and builders work with engineers to produce permit ready submissions.

  • Hay Runner staff secures a Building Permit.

  • The first step of the build phase is mobilization: With permits in hand, the project manager begins site visits with relevant staff members, completes contracts with subcontractors and begins staging materials and schedules.

  • Before clients can move into the new / updated space, Hay Runner staff coordinates and secures the Occupancy Permit and completes any final details.

  • Budgets are managed throughout the process and a final reconciliation is completed once all the work is done and sub contractors and material suppliers have invoiced Hay Runner.

We would love the opportunity to speaK with you about your project.

*Hay Runner strives to mobilize projects quickly, as one of our differentiators from other contractors; in some cases there is a planned delay (ex: client calls in the fall for a project they would like to do in the spring) - our timeline indicates the amount of time once a project is active.

One of the ideas our project size infographics illustrate is how a project can grow in scope, and become a different size project, impacting budget and timeline. We welcome projects and clients that we can grow with, and are experts in adapting, working with a budget and communicating as we go.

The Project Timeline considers which of the Project Steps will be included in the project - the less steps, the shorter the timeline!
