    Quick Answers

    How Hayco Builds Your Project

    Common questions about Hayco’s 12-step commercial construction process — from site selection to project close-out.

    What is Hayco’s commercial construction process?

    Hayco’s development process moves through three stages and twelve phases: Site Selection (program & requirements, site evaluation, planning & zoning, control of property), Pre-Construction / Design-to-Budget (feasibility, due diligence, design documents, permitting & final pricing), and Construction & Turn-Over (mobilization, commissioning, owner occupancy, project close-out).

    How long does the design-build process take?
    Project timelines depend on scope, but Hayco’s integrated design-build approach typically delivers projects faster than traditional design-bid-build because design and construction phases overlap and one team manages both.
    Does Hayco handle permitting and approvals?
    Yes — Hayco manages permitting, zoning, and governmental approvals as part of the standard pre-construction phase, so owners don’t have to coordinate separately with municipalities.
    What is included in pre-construction?
    Pre-construction includes feasibility studies, scope/budget/schedule definition, due diligence, programming and preliminary design, construction documents, permitting, and final pricing.
    How does Hayco control project budget?
    Hayco uses a design-to-budget approach: budget is established early in pre-construction and design decisions are evaluated against it through value engineering, so cost surprises during construction are minimized.
    What happens at project close-out?
    At close-out Hayco completes building systems commissioning, supports owner occupancy, delivers as-built documents and warranties, and finalizes punch-list items before turning the facility over.
