Construction management

With a construction manager from MI Support you get safe and efficient management of your construction project, from the first ideas to the finished building. You get overview, momentum and a dedicated sparring partner who ensures decisions are made in time, that collaboration between all parties works, and that the project reaches the finish on time with fewer risks and greater peace of mind.

From idea to handover

Get a strong sparring partner from start to finish

At MI Support we have experience handling tasks of all sizes. Some of our partners build larger, complex production facilities in the pharmaceutical industry, where we take part in the design, construction and build phases. Others need help getting a smaller project to the finish and ready for handover.

We always take each individual case as our starting point and find exactly the right consultant to solve the task, so you get the best possible result.

What do you get with a construction manager from MI Support?

Our construction managers ensure structure, overview and quality throughout the construction process, from the design phase to final handover.

Full insight into the project's progress

You get a continuous overview of the project's status, economy and any challenges. This gives you a solid basis for decisions and confidence that the project is developing as planned without unpleasant surprises.

Control over changes and economy

Changes arise in most construction projects. We ensure that consequences for time, economy and quality are clarified and documented before decisions are made. This gives you full control over the project and minimises the risk of unforeseen costs.

Efficient coordination with all parties

When many different parties have to work together, good coordination is crucial. We make sure everyone works towards the same goal, so misunderstandings, waiting time and errors are reduced. The result is a more efficient construction process, higher quality and greater certainty that the project is delivered as agreed.

Involve a construction manager early and get off to a good start

By involving our construction managers early in the design phase, we can contribute expert knowledge in buildability, work processes and interface coordination. This gives you a good and solid overview of the construction project and creates a safe construction process.

MI Support's construction managers focus on planning work processes that are reviewed at weekly schedule meetings together with all involved parties.

It is the construction manager's responsibility to administer the contracts entered into and to safeguard the client's interests towards stakeholders.

Focus on a safe working environment

At MI Support we take the working environment seriously. We have a team of safety coordinators ready to take care of safety on the construction site. All our working environment coordinators are trained and have experience across every stage of construction.

By using our working environment coordinators in the design phase, you ensure that the construction will be possible to work on without risk of wear-and-tear injuries or accidents.

In the execution phase we ensure that the client's obligations are met and that the construction site is safe for everyone present. We have a dialogue-based approach and involve all parties on the site.

We consider our construction managers the link from idea phase to realisation. They bring together all the parts of the construction and are the common thread with responsibility and overview from start to finish.

Construction management for your pharma build

Construction management for your pharma build

Many of MI Support's construction managers specialise in construction management within the pharmaceutical industry, including all the processes needed to plan, design, build and maintain the facilities required to produce and test medicines and medical devices.

The pharmaceutical industry has strict requirements for cleanliness, safety and hygiene, and buildings and equipment must comply with a range of standards and regulations to ensure that the products produced are safe and effective.

Our construction managers work closely with both architects and engineers to ensure that all aspects of the construction meet the necessary standards and requirements.

Our construction managers have top professional skills

Our construction managers are usually trained engineers or architectural technologists, and they place great emphasis on interdisciplinarity in their work. They have the overview and a thorough understanding of all phases of the construction process.

  • Assisting with both design and practical construction management
  • Being a central actor among project owners, clients, engineers, architects, tradespeople, suppliers, authorities and users
