DMR announced the official launch of its Construction Management Division, further strengthening the firm’s ability to support clients through every phase of project delivery. The new business line brings construction management, owner’s representation and project management services under the same roof as one of New Jersey’s most established architecture firms.
Whether acting as owner’s representative or managing construction on third-party designs, the team brings a depth of architectural understanding to ensure quality, efficiency, and adherence to the client’s vision.
The team includes licensed and certified professionals with backgrounds in construction management, general contracting, cost estimating and architecture. This expertise allows the team to approach each project with a deeper understanding of drawings, specifications and solutions that maintain design intent while proactively addressing field conditions.
“By offering construction management independent of our architectural services, we can protect our clients’ interests at every step, make smarter decisions in the field, and ensure every project reflects the quality and integrity that DMR is known for,” said Pradeep Kapoor.
The team will lead quality control tasks, negotiate with contractors, resolve issues in real time and enforce contract documents to support adherence to schedule, budget and code requirements. The division is also experienced with advanced construction technologies including drone videography and mobile project management tools.
The Construction Management Division is led by Henry B. Ossi, a 20-year veteran who is a certified cost estimator, a licensed building official, and has worked as a general contractor and an interim school business administrator. His diverse background allows him to approach projects from the owner’s perspective and with a firm command of constructability, budgeting and regulatory review.
“We are proud to introduce this division, comprised of a team with a wide range of credentials and practical experience,” added Kapoor. “Their leadership in the field will allow us to deliver successful outcomes for the most complex projects.”
