Owner Services for Large, Complex, and Socially Important Construction

MOCA Services is a full-service partner for Owners in design and construction. Our proven programs guide projects from concept to occupancy, delivering large, complex, and socially significant projects on time, on budget, and on scope—always with a focus on strong relationships.

The Problem

Over 90% of projects above $250 million are over budget, beyond schedule, and are not delivering on project requirements. Why?

  • Poor communication from the start
  • Lack of clear budget expectations
  • Unplanned and escalating costs
  • Poor understanding of Owners’ vision and needs
  • Scope and program creep through design
  • Unresponsive design development 
  • Poor planning
  • Lack of foresight to anticipate change
  • Poor allocation of resources

The Solution

Through extensive industry experience, our team knows the root causes of why projects get off track. Before spending money on design and construction, we develop a shared vision with the client’s key stakeholders and ensure that the vision is grounded in a realistic, comprehensive program plan. That’s why 90% of our projects are on budget, on schedule, and improve quality or scope.

MOCA Services provides a comprehensive array of expert Government, Institutional, and Commercial construction Owner’s services. These services include Owner’s Representative, Cost Management, Schedule Management, Planning and Programming, Facility Condition Assessment (FCA), Economic Services, and MOCA911. With MOCA Services, Owners can be certain of effective, profitable, and end-to-end project execution.

Owner’s Representative

As an Owner’s Representative, we represent you and are 100% committed to supporting you as program and project managers. We provide a broad range of program and project management services throughout the project to include project initiation, pre-design, design, construction and transition, occupancy, and warranty services.

When issues arise, we focus on protecting and looking out for the well-being of you and your project. Our Owner’s Representative service will reduce costs, maintain the schedule, minimize change orders, and ensure your expectations are met.

Cost management comprises project assessment and evaluation, projecting specific project cost estimates, and evaluating previous or past project data. At MOCA Services, we deliver cost management services efficiently and accurately. We realize that effective cost management is a team responsibility, whereby all team members are continuously aware of the overall financial status of a project. From project inception to completion, MOCA Services’ involvement does not cease until the team completes the final execution of the project.

Schedule management requires the establishment of policies, procedures, and documentation for developing, managing, maintaining, and controlling project schedules. Our team understands this methodology and has developed the appropriate tools and models to measure, gauge, adjust, and report on activities and the associated variances within the scope of complex projects.

Because the goal of our facility planning and programming professionals is to understand our client’s project objectives, we use a “Quick Start Plan” to establish preliminary project scope, phasing, budget, and schedule. The “Quick Start Plan” is designed around the development of highly intensive and collaborative workshops that help stakeholders identify their needs and items that they care about most. These focused workshops reveal the crucial programming and design elements that make a project successful.

Better decisions are made when there is a quick, simple, and effective way to inventory, estimate, track, and report facility deficiencies. MOCAPlan®, a web-based software product, provides clear, understandable, and visible information that can help justify requests for funding and become the foundation for a capital renewal program. The information is organized for better visibility into your capital program.

Economic services play a crucial role in the construction industry. They provide vital insights and analyses that are instrumental in guiding investment decisions, project feasibility, and portfolio strategy.
