Project Management
Successful Project Management is about building an integrated team of like-minded professionals who fully understand and are committed to delivering the client's objectives. Effective teamwork is central to success and to achieve this we develop client briefs and build project teams that can respond with best practice solutions. Understanding the needs of the many stakeholders, building and motivating the team, coordinating the work of different contributors and managing changes along the way are all aspects of our role.
By effectively managing risk at all stages of the life of a project, JEC is able to provide more certainty with regard to the traditional client concerns of time, cost and quality.

Construction Management
Construction management provides a very successful alternative to traditional methods of procuring construction works, where the Construction Manager will be appointed on a professional basis to deliver the construction project. It provides the client with the ability to actively manage cost and risk to suit their specific requirements throughout the life cycle of a project. Construction Management is a professional and non-adversarial way of organising and directing manpower, materials and equipment to accomplish the building designer’s vision for a project, without using a main or
management contractor.
We have on hand a strong team of like-minded individuals who act more like professional builders on behalf of our clients. Rather than simply managing the process, we work very hard to manage the works on site and focus on achieving the highest possible standards of quality and workmanship within the client’s budget. This alternative approach has been adopted very successfully by a number of our clients on previous projects.
Quantity Surveying
Our Quantity Surveyors are consulted at the outset of a development to provide cost estimates, feasibility studies and contractual and procurement advice for a proposed construction project. We prepare the tender documentation for the project, oversee the tendering process, advise on the selection of the tenderer, prepare the contract documentation and monitor costs during the construction period.
Quantity Surveyors are the financial managers of the client’s construction team who add value by effective cost management. Our cost management services are tailored to provide the highest degree of cost predictability and control keeping the project within budget from the initial design stages right through to its completion. Our services are widely used by private sector clients and the Cayman Islands Government.
Owners representative
Many end-users and stakeholders know what they need to have built to meet their needs, but lack the expertise in technical knowledge and administration resources to communicate these needs to the architects, engineers and constructors. An Owner’s Representative is essentially an extension of the owner’s staff managing the day to day operations of a project, acting as a single point of contact between designers, contractors and the owner. The Owner’s Representative aligns the project team with the owner’s priorities, and translates the course of the project design. With the owner’s representative acting as the owner’s “eyes and ears” on the project, the owner’s time is freed to concentrate on their core day to day business.
