Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work only as a contractor or also as a project manager?
We provide project management both as part of our construction execution and as an independent service when investors already have a contractor.
Can you manage projects for foreign investors?
Yes. We regularly represent international investors, providing full technical coordination, reporting, and on-site supervision in English.
At which stage should we contact you?
Ideally before land purchase or early design. Early involvement significantly reduces risk, delays, and cost overruns.
