Project Management

Our philosophy of project management covers the integrated management of all key components of a construction project such as Quality, Cost, Time, Contract, Organisation, and Risks throughout all project phases. You will achieve the best project result by implementing us from the very beginning so we can have a positive influence on your project already in the design stage, followed by the tendering phase and finally during construction until hand over.

Achieving high quality design results according to Western building standards can be challenging in China. Bencer has a particular strength in design and engineering of industrial buildings and offers a great variety of tailored services to foreign client's to meet even high quality requirements in a challenging environment.

Our EPCM (Engineering, Procurement & Construction Management) service package provides comprehensive design works including all necessary project approvals in combination with our standard project management services.
