OWNER REPRESENTATIVE AND DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES
Improving Performance and Mitigating Risk
All In Investments was the majority equity partner in two development projects located at 599 Clement Avenue and 1145 Pacific Avenue in Kelowna, BC. As the project progressed, All In Investments felt they required additional development expertise to assess and improve overall management and performance, prior to construction. Furthermore, the client recognized that risk mitigation strategies needed to be implemented to maintain and control project performance metrics until completion.
Implementing Risk Control Measures and Best Practices
CIC was engaged by All In Investments to provide Owner Representative services. As an expert in development management, CIC began to forensically assess the projects’ performance with the goal of relaying the challenges and implementing risk control measures that protected All In Investments’ financial return. By reviewing all documentation, contracts, financing and historical communications, CIC was able to identify and convey to All In Investments where prior challenges in project management protocol had occurred and subsequently implemented best practices to safeguard the projects’ success.
