Markets Served
VCM’s experience encompasses all stages of project development. We work with our clients as a team. We are flexible, innovative and forward thinking. Many of our clients are repeat clients which speaks to the quality of service we provide – from breaking ground to turning over the keys, you can count on VCM as your construction partner.
Construction Management
VCM takes a team approach to the construction process. The concept joins the owner, consultant and contractor as a team whose objective is to deliver the project with emphasis on time, budget and constructability. This approach differs from more traditional forms of construction in that a contractor is selected as the construction manager by the owner when the decision to undertake a project is made or simultaneously, with the appointment of the consultant.
Project Management
VCM would hire and lead the design team through the pre-construction, construction and post construction phases with input from the owner. We would be responsible to minimize or eliminate scope creep. VCM would manage scheduling, budgets, cash flow and reporting to the owner, keeping them informed throughout the process.
General Contracting
VCM’s experience with efficient estimating times, effective scheduling, construction techniques and relations with subcontractors and suppliers allows us to provide competitive tendered pricing based on your plans and specifications in a timely manner. We demonstrate our confidence by offering fixed price or guaranteed maximum price contracts, either competitively bid or negotiated.
Design Build
For many clients this option is becoming more attractive as Design Build services offer a firm price with a single source of responsibility. The owner is able to take advantage of the Design Builder’s expertise regarding effective scheduling and cost control from pre-construction through turnover. We are able to offer options for fast tracking where advantageous to the owner. As team builders, VCM has established a core group of reputable design consultants, trade contractors and suppliers who enable us to ensure a quality product on every project.

Tenant Improvements
Consider VCM as your partner for tenant improvement projects. We understand the complete start to finish process of these projects, including all approvals and small details that can be otherwise forgotten amidst all the planning and design. We understand that these projects are time sensitive and your business is planning for a move or transition with a specific date in mind to accommodate people, equipment and furniture. These dates cannot be moving targets. We will work within your budget, assist in determining needs vs. wants and use our extensive network or designers, sub-trades and suppliers to create a quality space that will represent your brand or business to your satisfaction.
Maintenance
What began as a service to some of our long-term Clients has evolved into an important part of our business. Whether you have an industrial plant shutdown that requires some time sensitive maintenance or upgrades to occur, a commercial building that requires a quick renovation, or require some emergency services following a fire or flood, VCM will be your partner to ensure the work is completed in a timely fashion. We have developed trust relationships with Clients whom call on us to perform maintenance on their buildings across Western Canada. Large or small, VCM will perform the work to ensure your regular course of business operations are not disrupted.
