About 52 Construction Advisory52 Construction Advisory provides owner-side construction advisory and representation services for developers, investors, and property owners. The firm works alongside project teams to identify risk early, improve execution, and protect capital throughout the construction process. By bridging the gap between business stakeholders and construction operations, 52 Construction Advisory helps projects stay aligned with budget, schedule, and quality expectations while reducing costly delays, change orders, and disputes.

What differentiates you from the competition?30+ years of hands-on experience across the full lifecycle; field operations, project management, executive leadership, development, and real estate.

What are your top selling services or products that your company offers?Our services stand out because they’re grounded in real-world experience and core values we actually practice...clarity, accountability, and execution. We focus on preventing problems, not just reacting to them.

If you had one message to get across to future customers, what would it be?We’ve seen the mistakes and understand where projects go wrong. Engaging early helps avoid delays, cost overruns, and unnecessary risk. The goal is simple: protect your investment and help your project succeed the first time.

What is the biggest marketing challenge that you will face in the upcoming year?Our biggest challenge is brand awareness and differentiation in a crowded consulting market. We need to educate owners and developers on the value of engaging advisory services early, before project issues, delays, and cost overruns occur.

What is your approach to helping clients identify and solve key challenges?Our approach starts with listening and understanding the client’s objectives, constraints, and risk tolerance. We then evaluate the project’s plans, team structure, schedule, and budget to identify gaps early. From there, we provide clear recommendations, align stakeholders, and stay involved through execution to help resolve issues before they escalate.

How do you tailor your coaching or consulting style to different industries?Our services are intentionally specialized. We focus exclusively on construction projects for owners and developers, so the approach doesn’t change by industry. By staying within our expertise, we understand the risks, processes, and decision points specific to construction and can provide practical, experience-based guidance rather than generic consulting.

What are the most common misconceptions about consulting?A common misconception is that consultants are an unnecessary expense and don’t provide tangible value. In reality, effective advisory work is preventative. The cost of guidance is typically minimal compared to the financial impact of delays, change orders, disputes, and rework that occur when projects lack proper oversight.

How do you measure the success of your client engagements?Success is measured by outcomes and relationships. If the project meets its budget, schedule, and quality expectations, and the client feels supported throughout the process, the engagement was successful. Repeat business and referrals are the strongest indicators that we delivered meaningful value.

What trends are influencing the future of consulting and coaching?A major trend influencing consulting is the experience gap. Many seasoned construction professionals are retiring, and organizations are losing institutional knowledge faster than it can be replaced. As a result, owners and developers increasingly rely on advisors with operational experience to help guide decision-making, manage risk, and support less-experienced teams.

What’s the most rewarding part of your work?The most rewarding part is helping clients navigate major project challenges and seeing the relief when a clear path forward is established. Turning a struggling project around and restoring confidence for the team and ownership is what makes the work meaningful.

What skills do you think are essential for future consultants or coaches?The most essential skill is listening. Many people rush to provide solutions before fully understanding the problem. Effective advisors take the time to understand the client’s objectives, constraints, and concerns first. The best guidance comes from clearly diagnosing the issue, not from speaking the most.
