What is a General Contractor in Construction?

A general contractor (GC) is the primary point of responsibility on a construction site. This is the construction firm that executes all day-to-day operations, making sure that labor, materials, equipment, and subcontractors work harmoniously to meet project deadlines.

In this model, the project owner hires an architect to design the project and prepare house plans, which are then used to solicit bids from general contractors in Kenya.

Once a construction firm is appointed as your general contractors, they proceed to take over all the construction responsibilities on the project site – including the roles of home builders, roofing companies, remodeling contractors, bathroom contractors, concrete contractors, electrical contractors, masonry contractors, etc.

When to Use General Contracting Construction Firms in Kenya

General contracting works best for construction projects with a clearly defined scope, finalized designs, and a set budget. Choose this if you have already completed the design phase and simply need a construction firm in Kenya to execute the building plans.

One of the key advantages of the general contracting model is the cost certainty it provides. Once the bid is submitted and the construction contract agreement is signed, you get a clear understanding of the project’s cost, with minimal surprises down the line.

General contracting is especially ideal for standard residential and commercial projects in Kenya with straightforward house designs. It allows for a direct, step-by-step execution of the construction plan without reworking the details or construction costs.

General Contracting vs. Build Design vs. Management Contracting

INTEGRUM Construction Firms in Kenya are Incredibly Versatile

Our Building Contractors are flexible, allowing you to choose between General Contracting, Build Design, and Management Contracting models.

Not sure of what to pick? Get free quotes for comparison.

General Contracting follows the traditional construction process, where the building contractor executes pre-designed house plans. The client provides detailed building designs, and the construction firm completes the project exactly as outlined.

Build Design firms, on the other hand, are turnkey building and construction companies in Kenya that take on both design and construction phases. This model reduces communication breakdowns between designers and contractors, accelerates timelines, and accommodates design changes during construction.

In the Management Contracting model, the contractor is not directly responsible for carrying out the construction work but oversees specialist subcontractors who perform the tasks. This model is particularly suitable for large, complex projects requiring specialized expertise.

The General Contracting Process for INTEGRUM Construction Firms in Kenya

01.

Bidding Phase

Upon receiving your project drawings and specifications, our construction firm in Kenya proceeds to:

Conduct a site visit to gain a better understanding of your project’s physical context, site conditions, accessibility, and environmental considerations.

Identify and evaluate potential risks related to construction challenges, regulatory compliance, and possible cost variations.

Develop a detailed construction bid proposal. Our proposal submissions for general contracting provide cost estimates for construction labor, materials, equipment, and subcontracting specialized works.

02.

Contract Award Phase ​

On receiving a Letter of Award of Contract, INTEGRUM general contractors go on to:

Carefully review it to confirm it matches our understanding of the construction project’s scope, terms, and conditions.

Negotiate with you to iron out any details critical to a fair and mutually beneficial construction process.

Sign the construction contract agreement and formally commence our partnership on your construction project.

Arrange for any required performance bonds and contractor’s insurance covers as stipulated in the contract agreement.

03.

Mobilization Phase

Here, the project site is handed over to our construction firm, and we:

Develop a detailed project schedule. It outlines the construction milestones, task sequences, critical paths, and deadlines for each phase of construction.

Identify the types and quantities of building materials and equipment that’ll be required at different project stages.

Assess construction labor requirements. We then determine the optimal number of site workers, their specific skill sets, and the timing of their deployment to various construction tasks.

Prepare the construction site by setting up security measures and temporary facilities.

04.

Building & Construction Phase​​

During construction, we do the following as your appointed general contractors:

Coordinate the logistics for building materials, construction equipment, and personnel movement to and from the project site.

Direct and supervise the daily construction activities on-site.

Ensure the construction work is performed according to the project plans, design specifications, and industry standards.

Monitor project progress while swiftly identifying and rectifying any deviations from the general contracting program.

Establish environmental protection measures and construction site safety protocols in compliance with local regulations.

Assign specialized works to our network of vetted construction subcontractors, whose contributions are seamlessly integrated into the project.

Enforce strict quality control processes that include material testing.

05.

Testing & Commissioning​ Phase

As your construction project is winding down, we:

Prepare a testing and commissioning (T&C) plan. This outlines the procedures, schedules, responsibilities, and standards for testing all mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems.

Execute the testing plan to verify that each system operates as intended.

Document and resolve any issues or deficiencies identified during testing.

Set up training sessions for your staff on the building’s operation, maintenance, and emergency procedures.

Prepare a final commissioning report. It summarizes the testing procedures, findings, and corrective actions. We also include recommendations for future maintenance or adjustments.

06.

Handover & Defect Mitigation Phase


Upon completing all the building works, our construction firm goes on to:

Perform a final walkthrough with your Architect and create a “punch list” of minor repairs, finishing touches, and adjustments.

Sort out all the issues stipulated in the “punch list”.

Apply for and facilitate final inspections of the construction site by local authorities.

Hand you the project closeout documentation. This includes as-built drawings, warranty certificates, and operation and maintenance (O&M) manuals.

Conduct a thorough site clean-up. Our construction firm removes all construction debris and demobilizes temporary project infrastructure.

Leave the construction site and kick off the defect liability period (also known as the warranty period).

Remain on standby during the Defects Liability Period to address any emergent defects.
