PROJECT LEADERSHIP & DELIVERY

We lead your projects from concept through occupancy - coordinating the full team, controlling scope, cost, schedule, and risk, and using Lean methods to keep delivery aligned with your goals.

GROUND-UP PROJECTS

We manage projects from planning to close-out, so you stay on schedule, on budget, and stress-free.

INTERIORS PROJECTS

We coordinate interior build-outs to deliver spaces on time, on budget, and to spec.

LEAN PROJECT DELIVERY

We apply Lean practices to reduce waste, improve flow, and support on-time delivery.

BUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE

We oversee mechanical, electrical, and plumbing coordination to prevent clashes, reduce rework, and keep installation aligned.

GROUND UP PROJECTS

We lead ground-up projects from early planning through occupancy, serving as the owner's representative and central point of coordination. Our role is to align the full project team around clear objectives while maintaining control of scope, schedule, cost, and risk throughout delivery.

We work closely with designers, consultants, contractors, and stakeholders to guide decision-making, manage approvals, and proactively address issues before they escalate. As projects move into construction, we remain actively involved to ensure execution stays aligned with the original content.

WHERE WE ADD VALUE
• Early team alignment and role clarity
• Schedule and cost control from planning through construction
• Risk identification and issue resolution
• Ongoing coordination across design, construction, and owner teams
BEST SUITED FOR
• Complex or multi-stakeholder projects

INTERIORS PROJECTS

We support interior fit-out projects from early planning through move-in, with a focus on speed, coordination, and minimizing disruption. Acting as the owner's representative, we manage the many moving parts of interior construction while maintaining clear control of scope, schedule, cost, and risk.

Our team facilitates approvals and coordination across designers, contractors, landlords, and building management to keep interior projects moving. By aligning work with lease requirements, building standards, and operational needs, we help prevent delays and resolve issues early.

WHERE WE ADD VALUE
• Clear team coordination and defined roles from project kickoff
• Schedule and cost oversight tailored to interior construction timelines
• Management of landlord criteria, approvals, and tenant standards
• Early identification of risks and proactive issue mitigation
• Continuous oversight to protect design intent and quality through completion
BEST SUITED FOR
• Tenant improvement projects
• Renovations within an occupied or operational building
• Projects involving multiple stakeholders and landlord coordination

LEAN PROJECTS

We apply Lean principles to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and support predictable project outcomes. Our team works with project partners to identify constraints early, improve workflows, and strengthen collaboration across disciplines.

Lean project delivery is not a one-size-fits-all approach. We tailor Lean tools and practices to the project context, helping teams focus on what drives value while maintaining flexibility as conditions change.

WHERE WE ADD VALUE
• Improved planning and coordination across teams
• Reduced rework and avoidable delays
• Clearer communication of priorities and constraints
• More reliable schedule and cost performance
BEST SUITED FOR
• Complex or multi-stakeholder projects
• Projects requiring tighter coordination and predictability
• Teams seeking more collaborative delivery approaches

BUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS

We oversee infrastructure and building systems, including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and other critical systems. Our role is to coordinate technical teams, manage interfaces, and ensure infrastructure work supports overall project goals.

By maintaining visibility into design decisions, procurement, and installation, we help reduce conflicts, avoid rework, and keep systems installation aligned with the broader project schedule and budget.

WHERE WE ADD VALUE
• Coordination of complex technical systems
• Alignment between infrastructure and architectural scopes
• Schedule and cost oversight for system installations
• Risk mitigation related to sequencing and constructability
BEST SUITED FOR
• Infrastructure upgrades and system replacements
• Project with significant MEP scope
• Facilities requiring careful coordination with ongoing operations

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Answers to common questions about our Project Leadership and Delivery services.
What types of projects does Keel manage?
We lead a wide range of capital projects, including ground-up construction, interior fit-outs, infrastructure upgrades, and complex renovations across various sectors.
When should we bring Keel into a project?
Ideally, as early as possible. Engaging Keel during planning or early design allows us to align the team, establish clear controls, and reduce risk before key decisions are locked in. That said, we can add value at any stage of delivery.
How is project leadership different from construction management?
We act as the owner's representative by leading coordination, decision-making, and risk management while working alongside designers and contractors. Our role is to protect your interests and keep delivery aligned with your goals.
What is Keel's role during construction?
We remain actively involved throughout construction, coordinating the full team, managing cost and schedule, resolving issues, and supporting informed decision-making to keep projects moving forward.
Does Keel assist with permitting and approvals?
Yes. We support and coordinate permitting and approvals as part of the broader project delivery process, working with stakeholders to maintain momentum and reduce delays.
