Tucson Owner's Representative Services

Most owner's reps come from project management backgrounds; TCG's come from building. We self-perform trades, run our own preconstruction, and price work as a competitive general contractor every week, which means when your GC says a change order is unavoidable or a schedule slip is weather, we know whether that is true, because we have stood on the other side of that conversation.

Tucson owners face specific oversight challenges: a construction market heating up around the American Battery Factory and aerospace pipeline (which tightens subcontractor availability and stretches contractor attention), a two-jurisdiction permitting environment split between the City of Tucson and Pima County, monsoon season claims, and out-of-state capital deploying into a market it does not know. An owner's rep with Arizona experience and national benchmarks, TCG serves both Tucson and Phoenix, closes that information gap.

TCG's owner's representation covers the full arc: feasibility and budget validation, contractor procurement and bid leveling, contract negotiation support, pay application and change order review, schedule and quality audits, and closeout including retainage release and lien waiver management. Our guide to reading a GC bid and apples-to-apples bid comparison guide show the analytical approach we bring to every pay app.

Engagements scale from a one-time bid review to full-project representation with not-to-exceed fee structures, so owners get exactly the protection their risk profile requires. Start with our finance and owner advisory guide or schedule a call.

Owner's rep fees typically run 1 to 3 percent of project cost for full-project engagements, with fixed-fee and not-to-exceed structures available. A single caught change order or scope gap frequently pays the entire fee.

TCG represents owners across the Tucson metro and Southern Arizona: institutional owners near the University corridor, medical groups in Oro Valley, industrial and logistics owners along I-10, and out-of-state capital entering Pima County. We know City of Tucson and Pima County review timelines, Arizona ROC and lien law mechanics (see our mechanics lien timing guide), and the real availability of the local subcontractor market.

Because TCG builds in 38 states, from Denver and Austin to Boston and Albany, Tucson owners get their contractor's numbers tested against national cost data, not just local anecdote.
