A complete renovation of a 1927 Tudor on Lake of the Isles. Twenty-two specialty subcontractors. Eighteen months. Zero change orders the owners didn't approve in advance.
Luxury project management at this level is not scheduling. It is translation — between the architect's vision and the builder's reality, between the owner's expectations and the timeline's constraints, between the stone fabricator's lead time and the tile installer's availability window.
The project manager on this job held weekly coordination calls with eleven trades simultaneously during the peak of construction. She knew every lead time, every dependency, and every person by name. The owners moved in two weeks ahead of schedule.
