What is Construction Management?

Construction management is the process of planning, coordinating, and supervising a building project from start to finish. It involves managing budgets, timelines, contractors, health and safety, quality control, and regulatory compliance. A good construction manager doesn’t just get the job done – they ensure the work is done right. That means staying ahead of delays, managing trades efficiently, handling paperwork, and making sure the finished result matches what was promised on paper.

At Aamsko, we act as your eyes and ears on the ground, managing everything from day-to-day operations to high-level contractual and technical issues. Whether we’re overseeing a full commercial refurbishment or a targeted repair of weathertightness failures, we bring structure, accountability, and trust to the process.

NEC3 & NZS 3910 – Why It Matters

These contract models aren’t just paperwork. They’re practical tools that shape the way a construction project is delivered. By using NEC3 or NZS 3910, we ensure:

  • Better contractor accountability
  • Less room for dispute
  • Well-defined roles (such as Engineer to the Contract or Contract Administrator)
  • Clear timelines, cost structures, and reporting lines

We act in the role of Engineer to Contract, guiding the process with fairness, integrity, and technical accuracy.

Construction Management for Leaky Buildings & Weathertightness Repairs

Many of our clients come to us with serious issues – leaks, rot, unsafe balconies, deteriorated cladding or roofs. These are not quick-fix jobs. They demand methodical diagnosis, proper project scoping, and a watertight plan.

We’re experts in weathertightness remediation, using industry standards like ASTM E2128 for water ingress investigation and AAMA field testing. But it’s not just the technical side we handle. We also manage procurement, contractor coordination, staged budgeting, and stakeholder communication.

Our role as construction managers in leaky building projects includes:

  • Independent defect reporting
  • Scope and specification development
  • Tendering and contractor selection
  • Construction monitoring and quality control
  • Contract administration under NEC3 and NZS 3910
  • Completion certification and defect liability management

Remediation requires careful coordination and deep technical knowledge. We manage the process from investigation and design, through consent and construction, all the way to final sign-off — keeping your project tight, tidy, and compliant with the Building Act.

Why Choose Aamsko?

What makes Aamsko different from other construction management providers is our multidisciplinary expertise:

We understand construction law and how it applies to your rights, responsibilities, and risk. We follow NEC3 and NZS 3910 construction contracts, ensuring that roles are clear, payment structures are fair, and disputes are minimised.

These contract models promote:

  • Transparency – so there are no surprises later
  • Early warning mechanisms – to resolve problems before they escalate
  • Structured payment claims and variations – keeping finances in check

Whether you’re an owner or a contractor, this gives peace of mind that your project is being managed under a clear and fair legal framework.

Architectural Understanding – For Design-Led Results

Our background in architecture helps us catch detail others miss. We understand building envelopes, design coordination, and how to translate drawings into buildable results.

This ensures that your refurbishment or new build maintains architectural intent while remaining practical and cost-effective.

Asset Management Insight – For Long-Term Value

We think beyond the build. Our construction management considers maintenance, lifecycle costs, warranties, and how decisions made now will impact your asset in 5, 10 or 20 years’ time. This is especially critical for body corporates and commercial landlords, who need durable solutions that stand the test of time.
