Built on Experience and Engineered for Consistency
At ArchKey Solutions, we’ve developed a fully integrated delivery system and process across the entire project lifecycle. Our process combines preconstruction planning, BIM/VDC design, off-site manufacturing, on-site work with just-in-time deliveries and advanced work packages, as well as full metrics and tracking for a first-of-its-kind, completely transparent delivery model.
The Principles That Drive Consistent Outcomes
Improved Safety Through Reduced Workforce and Pre-Planning
Lower Carbon Footprint and Reduced Waste
Improved Quality in Controlled Environment
Reduced On-Site Labor
Improved Budget and Performance Tracking
Improved Efficiency and Productivity
A Fully Integrated Process From Start to Finish
No matter your project size or location, our Project Delivery Model ensures your project flows through our standardized process for project delivery that is constructable, trackable, and transparent.
Preconstruction
Optimization of preconstruction activities is a critical advantage that yields numerous customer benefits. From constructability and value analysis, early design solutions, scheduling, and workforce planning to procurement and risk assessments, our preconstruction team is highly skilled at delivering value on projects that maintain your budget, safety, and scheduling needs.
Benefits of Our Process
- Minimize waste and maximize value
- Achieve the best quality within the desired budget
- Base design around best practices
- Eliminate change orders due to scope gap
- Real-time estimate updates as changes occur
- Provide incremental cost analysis

BIM/Lean Project Approach
Early Budget Development: Prefab & BIM
- Use BIM + prefab data for accurate early budgets
- Leverage historical project data for cost benchmarks
Data & Communication
- BIM-based matrices simplify cost/scope for clients
- Weekly updates track scope changes and prevent overruns
Prefab & Design-Assist
- Design-assist reduces field labor and redesign costs
- BIM tools enable classroom detection, prefab validation, and planning
Collaboration
- Align prefab design with owner/engineer needs
- A3 reports + BIM visuals streamline decisions and show lifecycle costs
Lean Project Approaches
- Just-in-time delivery
- Standard installation packages
- P4 Planning and visual management
- Lean-trained teams (Last Planner, 5S, 8 Wastes)
- Six-week Look-Ahead / Last Planner boards
- Weekly pull planning
- Takt & flow sequencing
- 5S job site organization
- Early constraint identification with subs and GC
- Direct-to-manufacture purchasing for cost savings
Off-Site Construction
Our off-site construction is all about turnkey installation for fast and reliable workflow. We build components in a controlled environment that promotes safety and quality while eliminating waste on our job sites. All systems are quality tested prior to leaving our off-site shop, so once on-site, it’s as simple as plug and go.
Benefits of Off-Site Construction
On-Site Readiness
Leverage BIM designs for the complete integration of manufactured assemblies, providing quality checks for on-site readiness.
Quality Controlled
All work is completed in a quality-controlled space, maximizing safety conditions and craftsmanship.
Workforce Leveling
Depending on the schedule, most of the project can be constructed off-site, minimizing on-site employees.
Archkey's Rigorous QA/QC Approach
ArchKey’s Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) Plan defines how work is received, installed, and completed in compliance with contract documents and in collaboration with the GC. Our commitment to doing it right the first time is built into this dynamic plan, which is regularly reviewed, monitored, and executed to uphold the highest quality standards.
Key Components
- Material & Equipment Inspection: Pre-delivery and continuous jobsite checks.
- Systematic Quality Controls: Verified against contract documents and manufacturer specs.
- Team Collaboration: QA/QC goals, site involvement, and lead personnel clearly defined.
- Comprehensive Documentation: Templates and reporting protocols included.
QA/QC Objectives
- Confirm delivery, condition, and documentation of equipment
- Verify installation meets project and manufacturer standards
- Validate operational readiness per approved submittals
- Document system performance through testing and monitoring
Metrics and Tracking
Visibility and transparency into schedule, production, and budget are critical to any successful project. That’s why all of our design, off-site manufacturing, and on-site installation are tracked separately to each individual kit. This allows our team to identify trends and early risk mitigation.
Budget Tracking and Accountability
Transparent Work Process
Eliminate surprises during the construction process. With analytics and metrics, you can easily track a project from beginning to end.
Budget Tracking
Each work package receives a clear scope from BOM and shop drawings, ensuring that all planned, actual, and EV spend is tracked and allocated for.
Facility Services and Maintenance
From preventive maintenance to 24/7 repairs and disaster recovery, our uniformed, experienced, and licensed technicians provide safe, reliable, and responsive service for all your facility’s electrical, technology, and life safety needs.
