ABOUT
Commercial Intelligence
We bring construction intelligence and commercial judgment to every project.
So your project moves with confidence, on budget, on spec, and on vision.
Who We Are
CMP was founded in 2005 as a construction firm and, over time, evolved into a vertically integrated development and construction platform.
That integration grew organically through client needs, giving us both construction intelligence and a development perspective at every decision point.
As projects became more complex, clients asked us to do more than build. They needed cost certainty, schedule clarity, and decisions grounded in how projects actually get financed and delivered. Our role expanded naturally in response.
Today, that perspective shows up in how we operate. We identify cost efficiencies without eroding quality, anticipate timeline risks before they surface, and phase work with the experience to keep projects moving as conditions shift.
Now in its second generation, the firm carries forward a disciplined way of working. Rigor, conscientiousness, and sound judgment—applied consistently in the field and across the table.
Owner Thinking
How We Think
We think like owners - and that's how fiduciary discipline enters construction.
Financial clarity is set early, not negotiated later.
We are construction entrepreneurs with fluency across architecture, engineering, development, and real estate finance.
That fluency matters because projects don’t fail on drawings alone — they fail where funding, sequencing, and risk intersect.
We understand how projects are capitalized, how schedules affect returns, and where risk actually concentrates.
A project has to work on paper and on site, at the same time.
That owner’s perspective shapes every decision we make.
We read drawings for constructability and market value.
We measure schedules against capital velocity.
We make decisions that protect the pro forma as much as the blueprint.
Judgment in Motion
Our story explains who we are.
How we think defines how we work.
What follows is how we deliver – day by day, decision by decision.
Pre-Construction
Early Risk Resolution
1
Pre-construction is where risk is either resolved early—or paid for later.
We review drawings for execution clarity, surface constraints before they compound, and structure schedules around real bottlenecks rather than optimistic assumptions.
Designs evolve. Materials change. Conditions shift. That’s the reality of building. What matters is having options when change occurs—value-engineered alternatives, clear trade-offs, and time to adjust scope or budget before decisions harden.
This is where projects are stabilized—or quietly put at risk.
Transparency
Open-Book Cost & Decisions
2
Our approach to transparency is deliberate and uncompromised.
We work open-book.
You see actual costs, mark-ups, proposed trades, schedules, and general requirements exactly as they are — complete and unfiltered. No smoothing. No surprises.
Clarity builds trust.
Trust builds better projects. We hold to that, consistently.
Execution
Design Integrity, ROI Discipline
3
We understand what’s at stake beyond the build itself.
Lease commencement dates. Financing carry costs. Operational continuity. The pressure of opening on schedule. These realities shape how we execute.
We protect design intent while maintaining budget discipline. We track schedules not just to completion, but to financial performance.
Every decision is evaluated through two lenses — craft and commercial — because both matters equally.
Leadership
Control in Complex Conditions
4
Projects are won or lost in how people are led.
Designers, trades, suppliers, and consultants each operate with their own priorities. Without alignment, fragmentation turns into delay, friction, and cost overrun. Our role is to provide direction — aligning independent expertise toward a shared outcome.
We communicate clearly and directly. We work with partners who share our standards. We address challenges early, without noise or drama.
At CMP, relationships aren’t separate from delivery — they are the delivery. The trust built over years translates into projects that move forward smoothly and succeed consistently.
That’s the difference you feel, even when it can’t always be measured.
