Rapp's GC Services
General contractors oversee the day-to-day operations of a construction project. As a general contractor (GC), Rapp provides all the material, labor, equipment, and services necessary for the project’s construction—this typically is performed on a Cost-Plus basis with the homeowner. Rapp’s expert builders manage the project budget, ensure quality and safety standards are met, and communicate with the project owner throughout the project’s timeline.
Difference Between General Contracting and Construction Management
Choosing between a Construction Manager (CM) and a General Contractor (GC) can shape the trajectory of your project—Rapp offers you the choice.
A CM is involved from the project’s earliest stages, providing expert guidance, managing risk, and ensuring the owner’s best interests across all aspects of the project. CM’s mostly operate on a fee-based structure.
In contrast, a GC will step in to take charge of the construction itself, shouldering the risk of delivering the project within the agreed-upon budget and timeline. They manage day-to-day site operations and subcontractor coordination, working towards profitable project completion.
