Program Overview

Construction cost increases of 200% or more in the last 5 years has been a shock to the system. Client expectations and even our own gut understanding of the cost of building, or renovating, in today’s market are difficult to rectify with the reality of today’s bidding environment. Rethinking the traditional approach, we challenge the idea that the low bidder is always the best choice and propose a value-added methodology.  

Part 1 of this program series will focus on understanding current market conditions and drivers, types of project budgets and the value of early design phase cost modeling.

Presented by AIA Cincinnati’s Academy and AIA Dayton.

Learning Objectives

• Understand how current market conditions are impacting project budgets and what that means for early cost modeling.

• Understand a project budget versus a construction budget and what goes into each.

• Understanding simple rules of thumb for determining and evaluating preliminary budgets.

• Understand early cost modeling as a tool for aligning design decisions and client budget expectations and maintaining them throughout the design and specifications process.
