Schedule Control

Eastern’s approach to scheduling is structured, collaborative, and used as a primary control tool for both planning and decision making.

Eastern develops a single, comprehensive Master Control Schedule, that integrates preconstruction, procurement, construction, testing and commissioning, handover, and closeout.

Cost Control

As conceptual budgeting begins during preconstruction, Eastern, in consultation with the client and the design team, determines the optimal format for the Master Control Budget Breakdown to determine basic project phasing, which in turn informs our approach to formatting the budget and accounting for the various budget centers.

Value Engineering

Eastern's approach to budgeting is inseparable from value engineering. During the budgeting process, the estimating team identifies value engineering opportunities and brings these to the attention of stakeholders on a regular basis. As value engineering ideas are accepted, the budget is updated.

Subcontractor Selection & Management

During preconstruction, Eastern develops a procurement and tendering strategy that protects our clients’ interests by clearly defining scopes, identifying risks early, and minimizing changes after award, leveraging a large, prequalified pool of long-standing trade partners selected through a structured evaluation process.

Once contracts are awarded, we manage trades through clear expectations, detailed lookahead schedules, and regular coordination meetings, supported by proactive risk management and an open-book approach that provides clients with full visibility into pricing, scope, and value opportunities.

Risk Management

Throughout preconstruction, Eastern identifies and quantifies risk and its impact on quality and schedule, conducts regular peer reviews by Executive Leadership Team facilitated by the Executive Project Lead, and conducts reviews with project stakeholders at key milestones including schematic design, design development, and construction documents. The Risk Management process continues throughout construction, until all potential risks have been resolved and addressed.

Quality Management

Eastern initiates the Quality Program following award of contract and formally mobilizes the project team, identifying the specific responsibilities and authority assigned to each member. The Project Director takes a lead role in Quality Assurance by reviewing all deliverables prior to issuance to the client. Senior Management utilizes the Quality Plan as a tool to audit and track performance. Every deliverable produced by Eastern is reviewed by Senior Management prior to issuance.

What We Do

Our hands-on approach, technical expertise, and collaborative process ensure every project is delivered to the highest standard.

Expert Services

Eastern’s team of experts is recognized for a collaborative and humble approach at every phase of construction, supported by meticulous attention to detail. We bring proven strength in mass timber, sustainability and low-carbon construction, strategic procurement and subcontractor relationships, safety management, quality management and deficiency control, as well as Virtual Design Construction & Building Information Modelling.

Preconstruction Services

Eastern delivers successful projects through strong leadership and a highly collaborative culture that brings out the best contributions from every stakeholder. We get involved early in preconstruction to understand our clients’ aspirations and vision, to develop strategies that protect key design features while finding smart economies elsewhere. This collaborative approach helps us meet schedule and budget targets while delivering high-quality facilities.

Post Construction Phase

Eastern understands that project close out can be challenging, which is why we start early, monitor progress closely, and stay committed through to final completion. Drawing on experience from thousands of successfully closed projects, we focus on making the post-construction and substantial performance phases efficient, orderly, and as seamless as possible for everyone involved.

Virtual Design & Construction / Building Information Modelling

Eastern continually advances how projects are delivered, utilizing the latest Building Information Modelling and Virtual Design and Construction technologies to optimize schedule, mitigating risks, and empower better decision-making throughout all phases of construction.
