Project budgets
Every tenant improvement project will be provided with a project budget that outlines the resources required for each phase of the project. The budget will include a contingency to account for any unforeseen circumstances. If the contingency funds are not utilized, they will not be charged to the customer. If funds have already been transferred into the project, unused contingency funds will be returned.
- A signed project budget is required to before any work can begin.
- Projects under $50,000 - Will be recharged directly to the customer’s chart of accounts.
- Projects over $50,000 - Will require a transfer of funds. The project manager will work with the customer to determine the most appropriate transfer approach, either by project phase or for the full project amount to ensure proper tracking and accountability.
