due dilligence that pays for itself

At SmartFlow, we treat due diligence like a pre-game warm-up for your construction project—skip it, and you’ll pull a financial muscle later. Our due diligence service is where strategy meets foresight: we analyze every blueprint, bid, permit, and subcontractor line item before a single hammer swings.

Why? Because 95% of major construction overruns start with poor pre-construction planning (McKinsey Global Institute). A few missed details in the early phase can turn into thousands in unexpected costs, delays, and change orders.

our process to save you money

Our process identifies hidden site conditions, scope gaps, compliance pitfalls, and material mismatches before they hit your budget. Think of it as insurance for your investment—but one that actually pays you back. Projects that complete proper due diligence save an average of 6–10% in total costs and reduce change orders by up to 40% (Construction Industry Institute data).

Walkthrough reporting

  • When it comes to construction, what you don’t see can cost you. That’s why our Walkthrough Reporting isn’t just a visual tour — it’s your early warning system for costly surprises.

    We perform a boots-on-the-ground evaluation of your project “as-is,” documenting every observable condition with high-resolution photos, detailed descriptions, and code-based insights aligned with current state and county requirements. Each report provides:

    • Condition ratings (1–5 stars) for structure, systems, and finishes

    • MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) evaluations to the trained eye — spotting what’s visible, flagging what’s questionable, and recommending what to plan for

    • Line-item detail with cost-saving recommendations and risk-prevention notes

    • Common condition summaries to identify trends across multiple units or buildings

    This level of visibility doesn’t just inform — it saves. According to Dodge Data & Analytics, identifying potential issues early can cut rework costs by up to 30% and reduce change orders by 40–50%. Our walkthroughs give you that edge before a single tool hits the wall.

    In short: Smartflow’s Walkthrough Reports turn “unknowns” into “known savings.” Because the best way to manage risk… is to see it before it costs you.

  • Once demo day hits, the real story begins. Smartflows’ In-Wall Reporting gives property owners a clear, data-driven look at what’s hiding behind the drywall — before the build-back begins.

    Our team evaluates exposed HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems after demolition to identify outdated, unsafe, or non-compliant conditions. Each report is backed by detailed photos, system notes, and recommendations tied directly to state and county codes. You’ll receive:

    • Full condition documentation of all visible MEPs post-demo

    • Repair and replacement recommendations with cost-saving alternatives

    • Code-based insights to help prevent inspection delays

    • Early funding intelligence — because if additional capital is needed, it’s better to know now than mid-construction

    Industry data shows that discovering system failures post-build can add 15–25% to total project costs. Our In-Wall Reporting helps you avoid that pain — catching the surprises before they become emergencies.

    In short: we help you plan smarter, raise smarter, and build smarter — because knowledge behind the walls is power in your pocket.

progress completion reporting

  • When every dollar and deadline counts, “complete” shouldn’t just be a word — it should be verified proof. Smartflow Solutions’ Progress Completion Reporting closes the loop between contractors, owners, and lenders with photo-backed verification, quality control ratings, and third-party confirmation that every line item has truly been completed.

    Our process ensures that nothing slips through the cracks:

    • Photo documentation of each completed scope per contract line item

    • Quality control reviews with 1–5 star completion ratings

    • Lender-ready verification reports to streamline draws and payments

    • Third-party validation confirming that all required work meets project standards and code compliance

    This service doesn’t just confirm progress — it protects your investment. Studies show that lack of progress verification is a leading cause of up to 20% payment delays and unnecessary rework costs. By validating each milestone in real time, Smartflow helps ensure that funds flow smoothly, disputes stay low, and your project stays on schedule.

    In short: with Smartflow’s Progress Completion Reporting, you get clarity, accountability, and confidence — every step of the way.

We help you build smarter, not harder—so you can stay ahead of the curve, on schedule, and under budget.
