Popular questions
Who benefits most from fractional project management?
Owners, developers, or investors who have occasional or limited-scale projects (e.g. renovations, additions, small builds) and don’t want or need a full-time construction manager benefit greatly from our fractional model.
How is fractional management different from hiring a general contractor?
A general contractor takes on full responsibility for construction, hiring, executing, and delivering. Fractional project management overlays oversight and guidance rather than directly performing all trades—this gives you more control and flexibility over subcontractor selection, budgets, and execution.
At what stage can Elevate step in?
We can engage as early as the planning or design phase, or be brought in mid-construction for trouble-shooting, reorganization, or to improve oversight and delivery for the remainder of the project.
How are fees structured?
Fees are typically based on the scope, scale, level of engagement, and duration of oversight. We work with you to develop a transparent fee structure that matches your project’s needs.
Will we still need a general contractor or trade partners?
Yes—our role is management, coordination, and oversight. You (or your entity) still employ or contract the trades, while Elevate ensures those trades perform as promised under your contracts.
Can you handle multiple simultaneous projects?
Absolutely. We can assign dedicated project managers for each project or tier our involvement based on priority and complexity.
