Real Estate Development Management
Square Edge’s Real Estate Development Management services provide comprehensive oversight across the full project lifecycle, from initial vision to final delivery. We manage every stage with strategic precision—guiding project definition, aligning design and construction teams, monitoring budget and schedule integrity, and coordinating execution to mitigate risk and maximize value. Our disciplined approach ensures seamless integration with stakeholders and successful outcomes across diverse asset classes.
Key Tasks
1. Entitlements & Permitting
We manage the entire entitlement and permitting process, from early zoning coordination and entitlement strategy to oversight of all required municipal approvals. While we do not serve as expeditors ourselves, we work with them directly, monitoring their progress and ensuring they stay on track. Because permitting systems and requirements frequently change, it is essential to have a dedicated expeditor involved. Our team keeps the process moving by managing the expeditor relationship, minimizing delays, and positioning each project for a smooth transition into design and construction.
2. Design Management
Square Edge leads the selection and management of architects, engineers, and consultants, ensuring alignment of design intent with budget, schedule, and constructability goals. We challenge and validate design decisions against project objectives, coordinate key milestones, and maintain consultant accountability throughout every phase of the project.
3. Pre-construction & Value Engineering
Our pre-construction services establish the foundation for success by combining estimating support, budget validation, and master schedule development. We manage value engineering to optimize cost without compromising quality, oversee the RFP process for general contractors, negotiate and execute contracts, and validate GMP proposals. Lender coordination, draw process management, risk and insurance oversight, and subcontractor buyout reviews are integrated to maintain financial discipline and reduce exposure.
4. FF&E Coordination
We provide complete planning, procurement, and coordination of furniture, fixtures, and equipment. From budgeting and vendor selection to delivery and installation, we ensure FF&E packages align with the overall design and are seamlessly integrated into final project delivery.
5. Construction Management
Square Edge oversees construction execution with disciplined management of contractors, cost control, and progress monitoring. We maintain transparency with financial tracking, ensure schedule adherence through milestone management, and provide rigorous quality oversight. Our leadership extends through closeout and turnover, ensuring projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest standard.
From project definition to construction oversight, Square Edge turns your vision into reality with strategic expertise and end-to-end leadership.
