As part of Colliers Project Leaders’ On-Call contract with the State of Connecticut Department of Administrative Services, our team provided owner’s project management services, serving as the Construction Administrator for the Hammonasset State Park’s West Beach Improvements project. This project included a new multi-purpose bathhouse and restroom facilities, including toilet and shower areas, a lifeguard station/office, a communications center, and a concession stand. In addition, we oversaw the renovation and landscaping of an existing 1,000-car parking lot, an expanded shaded picnic area, a pile-supported boardwalk connection from the new facilities to the existing beach boardwalk, and the demolition of the existing West Beach area concessions building.

As owner’s project manager, we were responsible for reviewing and recommending approval of the construction schedule submitted to the State by the general contractor and reviewing and providing recommendations to the State on shop drawing schedules, submittal schedules, and procurement schedules in conformance with the contract documents, project conditions, and approved construction schedule. Our team also assessed all work of the general contractor, subcontractors, and any additional service providers for compliance with the contract documents.
