PROJECT SCHEDULE CONTROL The Musial Group believes in fulfilling the most stringent of time schedules without sactificing quality or cost-effectiveness. To ensure compliance with project deadlines, it is our policy to develop a schedule identifying all meetings, owner review inputs, governing agencies’ approvals and architect-engineer and consultant tasks. ‘The roles of all project participants are defined clearly. Once committed to a schedule, we always adhere closely to it. By employing strong project management practices, careful planning and accurate budgeting, The Musial Group believes that efficient designs can meet the most restrictive standards. We realize that budget considerations are paramount since budgets are usually made early and must be adhered to. The project cost at time of bidding cannot be exceeded and therefore we must be as accurate as possible. Our early involvement in the planning of your project will enable you to have reliable costs early in the design phase. The early decision-making approach is reflected in our successful record of budgetary performance. We establish the required accuracy and depth in our budget planning estimate that results in a construction bid that is neither too far above nor too far below the estimated costs for the project.
