Contact UsBodwé construction oversight field staff are the front-line representatives of client interests to the public, with contractors, and relative to project contract documents and permits. We are experts at minimizing construction conflicts through preemptive coordination and timely communication. We are well versed in IDOT documentation requirements and have decades of experience working with contractors, public agency owners, and regulatory agencies such as state EPAs and USACE.
From development plan reviews to permit and development compliance inspections, we ensure that all aspects are aligned with community goals, project needs and expectations, and regulatory requirements.
Successful delivery and completion of infrastructure projects depends on the quality and coordination of the bid documents, specifications, and drawings. Our design reviews and site visits help ensure success.
Our resident engineers and pre-construction services extend capabilities for your planning, community development, engineering, and public works staff. We are your representatives, and we stand with your community.
Bodwé Group offers a full range of construction oversight services in partnership with other experts and teams within our Infrastructure Services Branch. We also collaborate seamlessly with our colleagues in the Buildings Branch, providing you with one point of contact for even complex projects and programs.
Success for every infrastructure project depends on the quality and coordination of the bid documents, specifications, and drawings. The Bodwé team of construction engineers helps clients achieve optimal project performance by completing a review of the design documents coupled with a site visit to ensure constructability. These constructability reviews help identify conflicts and/or issues with the design, specifications, and bid documents that could potentially lead to cost increase during construction via change orders, conflicts, and other factors.
Our team of engineers are experts in private development plan review and construction inspection. Our aim is to function as a seamless extension of our client agency staff including planning, community development, engineering, and public works. Our team of engineers and inspectors help facilitate pre-construction meetings, construction inspection for underground utilities and roadway improvements, witness and coordinate utility testing for acceptance, erosion control inspections, punch list inspections, review of record drawings, project closeout and acceptance by the local agency.
Bodwé Group has a team of engineers with a wealth of experience in completing permit compliance inspections for various local agencies. Our team is equipped to complete soil erosion and sediment control inspections, single family lot site plan reviews final engineering as-built inspections, and punch list and project closeout inspections for private site development projects.
Bodwé strives to start every construction engineering project in a well-organized and effective manner to ensure that each project has a successful outcome. We help facilitate contract document preparation, development of pre-construction meeting agendas, and coordination with the selected contractor, and we run the pre-construction meeting on behalf of our clients. Our team of construction experts can also conduct contractor site walk throughs and coordinate staging areas prior to the start of construction.
