1. Technical planning
Supervision at the technical planning stage: review of working drawings, specifications, and value engineering so the design is efficient and buildable.
Introduction
What Is a Construction Management (MK) Consultant?
A construction management consultant is a work team tasked with supervising, controlling, assisting, and taking part in the project construction process. Careful planning at the start of a project produces proper implementation, which largely determines a project's success.
As a construction management service provider (MK consultant), JULIZAR acts as the project owner's extended arm on site. We ensure the contractor's work conforms to drawings, specifications, contract, schedule, and budget, while reporting project progress transparently.
Construction projects involve many parties: planners, contractors, suppliers, and permitting agencies. Without integrated management, the risk of delays, design changes, and cost overruns rises. That is why MK consulting is increasingly needed for multi-storey buildings, hospitals, apartments, hotels, and commercial areas.
When you need us
What Is an MK Consultant Used For?
Construction needs technical planning supervision by construction management in the following conditions:
- Buildings above 4 (four) floors
- Buildings with a total area above 5,000 m2 (five thousand square meters)
- Buildings with a special classification
- Buildings involving more than one planning or construction service provider
- Projects carried out over more than one budget year (multiyear projects)
Beyond these criteria, MK services still benefit owners without an in-house technical team or who want to reduce risk on high-value projects.

Benefits of Construction Management Services for Owners
With an MK consultant, owners get a single point of coordination for all project parties. Technical decisions are taken on data, work changes are assessed before approval, and periodic reports clearly show physical progress and cost realization.
Consistent supervision helps prevent rework, reduce delays, and maintain building quality through the maintenance period. The end result is a building that is safe, to specification, and ready for use or for application for a building approval and certificate of functional worthiness.
