Our Services & Expertise

From start to finish, J.A. Jennings, Inc. holds your project to the highest standards.

Construction Management/General Contracting

To manage your project, J.A. Jennings, Inc. uses the Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) Master FormatTM Division List, the industry standard for organizing specifications and other written information for commercial and institutional building projects in the U.S. and Canada.

  • Skilled supervisors provide direction to contractors and communicate consistent updates with the building owner and architect to cross-check that furnished materials and work performed are in accordance with specifications.
  • Regular progress/cost reports and meeting minutes are shared with the architect, building owner and other involved parties.
  • Together, with the architect and engineer, we establish goals for shop drawing submittals and review procedures that keep the project on schedule.
  • Safety and security procedures are of utmost importance. All contractors are required to sign in and out each day. The field superintendent records who was on the job site and what company was represented.
  • We maintain a clean workplace that minimally impacts other building occupants. All contractors also have strict guidelines for areas they can and cannot traverse, including assigned restroom facilities and eating areas.
  • As needed, we coordinate furniture, furnishing and equipment (FF&E) delivery and installation.

Pre-Construction Services

You only get one chance to make a first impression. At J.A. Jennings, Inc., we take this to heart and value the faith you put in us to manage every project detail. During pre-construction, our team consults with your team—the building owner, architect, engineer, and other involved parties—to develop a strong rapport, gain a thorough understanding of the project vision, and establish clear lines of communication.

    • We develop the project budget, cost estimates, and the construction timeline, identifying longer lead items and recommending pre-purchase when appropriate.
    • Each project is carefully considered by our senior estimators and closely monitored by a principal of the firm.
    • To minimize impact on adjacent tenanted spaces, traffic flow is reviewed, and construction is scheduled around any pre-planned events.
    • A timeline is established with each subcontractor and material supplier, and progress is monitored daily. When necessary, J.A. Jennings, Inc. also visits the fabricator to review manufacturing progress and ensure quality specifications.
    • Together with the architectural and engineering teams, we develop early bid packages and assist in the preparation of a bidders lists, including evaluating and negotiating with selected vendors or subcontractors.
    • We coordinate with the architect to identify viable trade and finish alternatives when necessary.
