PROJECT MANAGEMENT
As construction sites became more complex with a combination of different trades working together to build a new home they required competent project managers who were able to organise the multitude of different people and processes that came together to complete the project.
As it is with the different trades working together towards the client’s desires, imagine the different aspects/systems of the Smart House having to be designed and coordinated together to give the client a fully integrated system that is consistent throughout the home.
SMARTHOMEWORKS provides project management as part of our key services to ensure that our customers end up with a home that has been designed to their specifications with full explanation and recommendation by us.
