DSA Construction Management will negotiate their fee early in the process. This becomes a Fixed-Fee and we set our fee so there is no conflict-of-interest, or incentive to raise the project cost. Any percentage fee carries with it an inherent advantage to the builder as costs increase or as things are added to the project. Our fee will only increase if there is a change in the scope of work (such as the owner adding square footage to the project) since the original construction project was planned.
