Minimizing Risk, Maximizing Efficiency

At RDR Construction, our Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) approach streamlines project timelines while significantly reducing risk for our clients. By engaging with your project from the earliest planning phase, we take full ownership of subcontractor contracts—ensuring seamless coordination, cost control, and accountability. With a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) and a firm completion date, you gain financial and scheduling confidence from day one.

Tailored Solutions for Every Project

We understand that every client has unique priorities. Our flexible delivery methods allow you to determine the level of control and involvement that best fits your needs. Whether prioritizing cost efficiency, speed, or risk mitigation, we work with you to find the ideal balance for success.

Building Beyond Expectations

At RDR, we don’t just build structures—we create spaces that inspire. Our commitment to safety, quality, functionality, and aesthetics ensures that every project exceeds expectations. With a dedication to excellence, we turn visions into reality, delivering results that stand the test of time.

Benefits of a CMAR Contract

Cost Certainty & Budget Control

• The CMAR provides a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) early in the process, reducing the risk of cost overruns.
• Open-book cost transparency ensures owners understand where every dollar is spent.

Reduced Owner Risk

• The CMAR holds all subcontractor contracts, assuming liability for construction performance, cost, and schedule.
• Any cost overruns beyond the GMP (unless due to owner-approved changes) are the CMAR’s responsibility—not the client’s.

Accelerated Project Delivery

• Early involvement allows for parallel planning and construction, shortening project timelines.
• Potential delays are identified and addressed before they impact the schedule.

Improved Collaboration & Communication

• The CMAR works closely with the owner, architects, and engineers from the beginning, ensuring alignment on project goals.
• Potential design or constructability issues are identified and resolved early.

Higher Quality Construction

• The CMAR’s early involvement leads to better material selection, construction methods, and long-term durability.
• Quality control is integrated throughout the project, not just at the final stages.

Greater Flexibility & Value Engineering

• Owners have input in decision-making while the CMAR provides expert recommendations to enhance cost efficiency and performance.
• Alternative materials or methods can be evaluated for cost savings without sacrificing quality.

Streamlined Permitting & Procurement

• The CMAR assists with navigating regulatory approvals, ensuring compliance and avoiding costly delays.
• Subcontractor selection is handled efficiently, optimizing both cost and performance.
