MOCA is a nationally recognized project management and
construction management firm that has focused on verifiable
project controls to improve capital project performance and
avoid unnecessary costs of delays and changes. Over the
past seven years, MOCA has provided these professional project
controls and management to over $2.5 billion in construction
projects involving over 15 million square feet. MOCA has
provided these services to state and federal agencies,
commercial organizations and institutional clients.
MOCA Systems has extensive and specialized experience helping
owners control the risks, costs, and schedules associated with
their construction projects. MOCA developed a software
system called MOCABuild™ that augments
Primavera™ and cost databases to simulate
construction based on the project material requirements to
develop a detailed labor-driven schedule and quickly and
verifiably assess pricing and timing impacts of any changes.
MOCA has a proven track record of saving (avoiding) an
estimated 5% of total construction costs and schedule
duration. These savings are generated from:
- Accelerated planning and design through
scenario-based constructability simulations that provide
earlier visibility into costs and schedule constructability
requirements.
- Improved project ROI through verifiable trade-off
decision-making throughout the project based on detailed cost
and schedule impacts.
- Lower contractor awarded pricing through a better
understanding of project labor and material content
requirements that reduce risks to contractors of unknown work
and/or unrealistic requirements and allows owners to better
negotiate pricing.
- Lower claims and change orders by simulating
contractor proposals to validate cost and schedule impacts
before payment approval.
- Earlier project completion date from proactive
decisions based on simulating labor requirements, sequencing
and optimal recovery options based on changes and unexpected
events. The result is earlier completions dates, or
completion on-time during fast-tracked projects, to ensure
properties meet client and business requirements.
- Improved project cash flow from paying
contractors based on actual work completed and stored
material, not just submitted invoices.
MOCA's services provide single source responsibility for the
project controls, thus achieving single-source management of
cost, quality and schedule for projects from concept to
completion. These focused and cost-effective services, coupled
with our strong team approach, save time and money, and
eliminate surprises and crises. The process brings all team
members together and keeps the team moving forward based on a
verifiable MOCABuild™ platform information for
more effective cost and schedule management.
