Our process is tailored to the project that we’re working to complete, but we always focus on four key phases. Before we jump into the phases, we need to meet you! It is preferred to meet in person and begin discussing your project. After gathering a few key details we can move into a more formalized process.

Dreams. Visions. Design.

In this discovery phase, we begin to discuss the specifics of the project. We’ll typically try to cover some of the following information in our initial meeting

  • Size and type of home to be built

  • Client needs

  • Client wants

  • Price range

  • Value Engineering Recommendations and Budget Planning

  • Coordination with Architect and/or Designer

  • Confirm Resources, Supplies, & Labor Force Availability

  • What is included in our build

  • Home Design

Once we’ve completed the initial discovery intake, we can begin the financial aspects.

Budget. Contract. Finance.

In this phase we are working to create the budget per the newly designed home. A specification sheet and contract will also be completed. Financing will be supported as needed with the institution of your choice.

  • Budget file created and shared with client

  • Specification sheet will be completed to capture the project scope and details

  • Contract will be written and signed by Oetman Construction and the client

  • Financial institutional support provided for the construction loan

Plan. Schedule. Build.

In this phase we are managing the daily details of your project as it progresses. Communication frequency and method is set by the client, but available via phone, email, or on-site. Regular face to face check in and site walk through is encouraged depending on schedules.

  • Permitting

  • Site Plan & Site Prep

  • Develop Master Schedule

  • Regular meetings upon builder & client request

  • Single point accountability & control

  • Safety on the job site

  • Management of subcontractors & specialists

  • Minimizing neighborhood impact

  • Cost management to budget
