PDMi – How We Can Help You

Earlier this week, I took a trip to southern Indiana to do a jobsite inspection for a project we designed last year. It is a large multi-unit apartment complex and the contractor has recently begun the construction phase of the project. I will be taking monthly trips to the site over the next 12-15 months, as the bank that financed the project requires monthly site visits by the architectural firm to verify and approve progress payments. I’m excited to see the vibrant colors of the fall foliage during my October and November site visits, but I’m a bit less excited about snow covered roads in the winter!  

I tell you the story above to illustrate that PDMi wears a lot of hats. Many people think that Architects simply design buildings. Here at PDMi, we do a lot more than just design buildings for our clients. A few things that we do here on a day to day basis are:

• We perform upfront code research and planning for all types of projects.

• We work with clients on process flow and layouts inside the facility to help maximize the return on investment.

• We help clients during construction by answering technical questions, attending jobsite meetings, doing onsite inspections and helping clients understand what their budget dollars are being spent on.

• We also design buildings, but I think you already knew that!

Here at PDMi, we pride ourselves on being a “one stop shop” for all of your building planning, designing and implementing needs. We can do all or some of the items above and help you get the most out of your new building project or existing renovation. If you need help on your next project, give us a call – we’d love to jump in and help.
