North Star Project Management

What we can do for you.
At Northstar Project Management, Inc., our goal is to support our clients to create the most energy efficient buildings for the lowest cost, fastest schedule and highest quality.

We have accomplished this goal on eighteen projects valued at $880 million dollars in the last
five years by using Performance Based Design-Build Procurement.

Energy Efficiency
Two of our projects are LEED Platinum and will be Zero Net Energy facilities.

Cost Control
All of our projects have been completed for the Firm Fixed Fee cost.

Schedule
All of our projects have been completed on time.

Quality
Using performance specifications allows the design-builder to add quality within the firm fixed fee.
   

Design-Build Criteria Consulting
The most critical aspect to a successful design-build project is the performance specifications. We work closely with our client to in developing measureable performance requirements and creating custom well defined documents such as the Request for Qualifications, Request for Proposal, design and construction procedures suited to performance based design-build.

Design-Build Owner’s Representation
After contract award, the highest risk to any design-build projects is the first five months of design. During this time the design-builder must meet all of the owner’s performance criteria while maintain the budget and schedule. Our proven expertise ensures that our client’s projects are successfully executed and delivered utilizing traditional as well as innovative project management principles.

Design-Build Workshops

Northstar offers a 2 ½ day workshop on performance based design-build, plus custom workshop for our clients. We have taught seventeen workshops for the Design-Build Institute of America and fourteen workshops for the Society of American Military Engineers. Our President, Leandra Thompson, is an accomplished, highly rated speaker and author.
