Project Management
CPM Scheduling & Site Oversight

Project Management

Certified project management with Critical Path Method scheduling — the same methodology used by billion-dollar construction firms, applied to every project we take on.

Overview

Your Opening Date Is a Business Commitment. We Treat It That Way.

Most commercial contractors manage projects reactively — they respond to problems as they arise. At Olive Tree Builds, we manage projects proactively. We build detailed CPM schedules before construction begins, track critical path items daily, and identify risks weeks before they become delays.

Our project management system is built on the same Critical Path Method methodology used by the largest construction firms in North America. Every project — regardless of size — gets a full CPM schedule, a dedicated project manager, and daily reporting that keeps you informed without requiring you to chase us.

We also use construction management technology to give you real-time visibility into your project: daily photo logs, RFI tracking, submittal management, and budget reporting — all accessible from your phone.

How It Works

Our Process

Step 01

Project Kickoff & Schedule Build

We build a full CPM schedule working backwards from your opening date, identifying every critical path item, long-lead procurement, and permit milestone.

Step 02

Subcontractor Procurement

We procure and vet every subcontractor, ensuring they have the capacity, certifications, and experience your project requires.

Step 03

Daily Site Management

Our site superintendent manages daily operations, resolves issues in real time, and delivers daily photo logs and progress updates.

Step 04

Weekly Schedule Reviews

Every week, we review the schedule against actual progress, identify variances, and update the critical path — keeping your opening date protected.

Step 05

Quality Control Inspections

We conduct formal quality inspections at every major milestone — framing, rough-in, drywall, finishes — before proceeding to the next phase.

Step 06

Closeout & Documentation

We manage the punch list, coordinate final inspections, and deliver a complete documentation package including warranties, as-builts, and maintenance manuals.
