General Contracting, Construction Management, & Design Build Services

From preconstruction services to final inspections, we work tirelessly to meet the project objectives and to ensure a smooth process for our clients. We help clients understand the differences in the various methods of delivery, enabling them to choose the most appropriate for their needs. Regardless of the delivery method chosen, we approach each new project as the start of a long-term business relationship.

As a firm, we bring tremendous stability to each project. Solid planning, hands on management and a strong safety program provide peace of mind to our clients. Job site safety is a high priority, and all of our superintendents and project managers are OSHA trained and certified. This has allowed us to maintain our workmen’s compensation modification rate of approximately 0.8, well below the industry average of 1.0. The subcontractors that we work with are chosen for their dependability, safety records, value and quality as well as their enthusiasm for embracing our corporate team approach.

We believe that anyone can measure whether a project gets completed when promised. It takes a more careful look to recognize the management expertise required to make it happen without compromising quality, cost or service. Whether your project is new construction, an addition or a renovation, Fortunato Construction Group brings the skill, experience and dedication you need to make your project a success.

 

General Contracting

As a widely respected General Contractor, Fortunato Construction Group has worked with clients to successfully complete complex, multi-million dollar projects across the Northeast. The firm’s extensive portfolio spans high-tech medical facilities, elegant fine dining and retail establishments, and large-scale industrial construction projects.

When clients select Fortunato as their General Contractor, the firm brings the resources, sophisticated skills, and technical capabilities to professionally manage substantial projects. For 30 years, Fortunato has developed a reliable network of carefully pre-qualified subcontractors, skilled local trades-people, suppliers, and vendors.

For clients preferring the traditional General Contracting method of delivery, Fortunato Construction offers the ability to work under a cost-plus, negotiated guaranteed maximum price (GMP), or lump sum arrangement. Regardless of the method of delivery, Fortunato Construction brings the same skill, dedication and integrity to every project.

 

Construction Management 

Fortunato Construction Group’s Construction Management practice has earned the trust and respect of national corporations and significant regional companies throughout the Northeast. Clients choose Fortunato for this project delivery method based on a proven reputation and demonstrated technical qualifications under a format where serving the client is paramount.

Fortunato aligns our interests with owners, acting as advisor and constructor throughout the planning, design, and construction. Under a construction management arrangement we provide an array or preconstruction services, including budgets and schedules, ‘right-to-build’ services, design input, value engineering, and of course, comprehensive construction planning and execution. Construction Management is often the delivery method of choice for fast track project schedules.

 

Design Build Services

The conventional design, bid, build delivery method has been tested and proven effective for many years. However, for some projects, the nature of the design build process is far more efficient.  We're proud to offer design build services to our clients who are looking for a streamlined, condensed time frame, and a single point responsibility for their job. We provide architectural design services in house, and contract directly with consultants, eliminating the owners role as dispute referee.  This type of agreement allows our services and skills to truly stand out.
