Bohler’s Daniel Hines Featured in Construction Tech Review

The Power of Early Collaboration in Commercial Real Estate Development

Bohler’s Daniel Hines, Principal in the Charlotte, NC, office, recently shared his expertise in Construction Tech Review, highlighting how early contractor involvement is transforming the landscape of commercial real estate development.

In the article, Daniel sheds light on the significant advantages of engaging general contractors early in the planning process. This collaborative approach allows for better alignment between engineers, contractors, and subcontractors, resulting in smarter designs, streamlined processes, and cost savings. By leveraging contractors’ insights into material availability, labor trends, and construction sequencing, developers can avoid costly delays and create value-driven solutions that keep projects on track.

One notable example of this collaboration is the successful delivery of North Chase at The Park, a 450,000-square-foot industrial campus in Huntersville, NC. Working closely with Duffey Southeast Construction, Daniel and his team tackled complex challenges like stormwater management and phased construction to achieve a seamless execution. The result? 278 concrete tilt-walls erected in just seven-and-a-half days—a testament to the power of teamwork and strategic planning.

From streamlining permitting processes to integrating subcontractor expertise at key milestones, Daniel emphasizes that open communication and proactive collaboration are essential to navigating the complexities of today’s construction environment.
