Capability Statement

Independent Representation for commercial owners and tenants.

Prepared for review by ownership groups, asset managers, and development teams evaluating third-party construction oversight.

Firm Overview

Built to represent one side of the table.

Heartpine provides Owner's and Tenant's Representation and Construction Project Management to commercial real estate owners, tenants, asset managers, and developers. The firm holds no GMP contract, self-performs no work, and takes no share of trade buyout — the profit centers that can align a construction manager's incentives with the cost of the job rather than the owner's outcome.

That structure removes potential conflicts of interest. It's a natural complement to your design and construction team — an extra layer of coordination and oversight, not a substitute for the expertise they bring.

Tracking municipal approvals and utility coordination so the schedule isn't quietly slipping before mobilization.

Pre-Construction Advisory

Budget validation, delivery method selection, and GC/CM procurement support.

Contract & Risk Structuring

Delivery method and contract term guidance matched to project risk profile.

Schedule & Cost Oversight

Draw review, cost-to-complete tracking, and change order review throughout construction.

Site & Quality Oversight

Regular site presence, RFI/submittal tracking, and OAC meeting management.

Closeout & Commissioning

Punch list oversight, systems verification, and warranty documentation handoff.

Ongoing oversight across multiple concurrent or phased projects for a single owner.
