Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI)

Turn to NicNevol Engineering’s knowledgeable and experienced staff for your project management and contract administration needs.

At NicNevol Engineering, we understand projects don’t end with construction plan and permit approvals. We work collaboratively through the construction process to facilitate execution, ensure quality, and quickly resolve construction issues to keep work on schedule. We monitor construction at every stage and verify that the work is executed in accordance with contract documents and that the finished work meets quality standards.

Our team understands how the construction documents are transformed into the built project, protecting our clients’ interests and meeting construction and occupancy schedules are our highest priorities. Our CEI team has overseen construction projects ranging from small roadway improvements to major interstate projects such as complex bridge and infrastructure improvements.

Our firm provides CEI inspection staff to oversee a project from inception to completion, provides surveillance of the Contractor’s Quality Control activities at the project site, and performs quality assurance assessments to ensure that construction matches the contracted services.
