From successful planning to self perform work.

Whether you’re starting with detailed plans in hand—or a piece of land and a dream—Benning has the expertise and industry knowledge to steer your project to a successful finish.

From pre-construction services to design-build, construction management and general contracting, we bring seven decades of experience and a partnership mindset to every project.

Pre-Construction Services

Pre-Construction Services

How you start is how you finish. We believe in starting strong. Our pre-construction services ensure competitive and accurate pricing, rigorous schedule evaluations, and detailed project plans that address project challenges long before work in the field begins. Our project managers are the best in the business, taking ownership of the project and ensuring a successful transition to the construction phase.

Services include
  • Minimize change orders via a detailed constructability review
  • Evaluate opportunities for value engineering
  • Determine ROI on energy efficient mechanical systems
  • LEED/Sustainability analysis
  • Scope coordination
  • Schedule development with procurement and construction milestones
  • Rigorous subcontractor qualification and bidding
  • Authentication of subcontractor financial stability
  • Scope packaging to facilitate local, small, minority business
  • Solicitation of firms specific to a community or locale
  • Comprehensive site safety planning

Design-Build Services

Design-Build Services

When builders and designers work hand-in-hand, designing and pricing a project at the same time, owners on tight timelines can spend less time in pre-construction and help keep costs within budget.

Our extensive building expertise makes Benning an optimal design-build partner. Not only can we ensure the constructibility of our design, but we can add value along the way, identifying opportunities and options that will meet your project objectives, timing and budget.

Communication and collaboration are key. Our team is wired for partnership, listening well and communicating clearly, to ensure every base is covered and every client objective is met.

Construction Management

Construction Management

Our work as self-perform general contractors gives us unique insight into the construction management process. We know exactly what it takes to build a project, start to finish–right down to the very last detail.

That means we’re involved with your project starting with pre-construction to ensure efficiency of the design process, better informed bids (and therefore lower prices), fewer change orders, and shorter timelines, not to mention a higher quality finished product.

Services include:
  • Estimating
  • Value Analysis
  • Constructability Reviews
  • Project Operations
  • Cost Control
  • Quality Control
  • Scheduling
  • Safety

General
Contracting

General
Contracting

As a self-perform general contractor, Benning brings seven decades of building experience to the table–and upholds the highest standards for attitude and performance. That includes our vendors and sub-contractors, who adhere to Benning’s stringent safety protocols and receive training to apply the collaborative ownership mindset that Benning is known for.

Running safe and productive job sites is integral to Benning’s culture–and it starts with clear and consistent communication. While challenges pop up on any job site, having a detailed and well-communicated master plan makes it easy to identify and address disruptions and get jobs back on track quickly.
