Inertia Built

Development management

Run your project like a business.

For developers and owners building in Calgary. We take charge of the schedule, budget, trades and reporting, so you know where the project stands every week.

Services

What we manage for you

Budget and feasibility

Line-by-line construction budgets, soft costs and contingency, so you can test a project before you commit to it.

Design and permit coordination

We manage consultants and drawings, and keep the permit process moving.

Procurement and trades

Scopes of work, competitive quotes, and side-by-side comparisons, so each package is awarded on facts.

Schedule control

A working schedule with predecessors and a critical path, updated as the job changes.

Cost tracking

Actual costs against budget by trade, with change orders recorded and approved.

Reporting and lender support

Clear progress and cost reporting for partners and lenders, including draw support.

Our tools

Every project in one system

We run projects in our own project-control software: one place for the schedule, the budget, trade quotes and supplier tracking, on the laptop in the office and the phone on site.

  • Schedule with predecessors and a live critical path
  • Budget against committed and actual cost, by trade
  • Quotes compared side by side, with revisions tracked
  • Site checklists and daily logs completed from the field
