If you’re looking into commercial construction, you might be surprised to find that all approaches to getting the job done aren’t the same. While there are plenty of roads to Rome, so to speak—many ways to achieve a great new build—some are better suited for certain clients over others.

When it comes to commercial construction, a great architectural design is paramount. Making sure your building has all the space needed in just the right respects, after all, is key to a future facility that streamlines workflow and caters to client needs.

When you begin the process of a new build, it can be incredibly overwhelming. All of a sudden there are what seems like thousands of people who have their hands on the ball, and while certain construction management types make communication easy, you probably still want to know what’s going on behind the scenes and who’s doing what—we get it. This build is your company’s future, after all!

Recently, on our construction company blog, we outlined the construction process in the entry “The Commercial Construction Process From Start to Finish.” The ‘finish’ we outlined there is called the post-construction stage, and without further definition, it might seem just like its name indicates: the stage in which no more work needs to be done. You might think that after your building is completed, the contractor washes their hands of it and you’re free to move right in—but it’s not that simple!
