65 <br />have a positive impact on the project's constructability.105 <br />Cost Savings <br />1. Potential for reduction of architect /engineer design <br />fees due to less involvement in project estimating and <br />administration.106 This potential is not always realized <br />in actual practice. Many architect /engineer firms continue <br />to charge the owner the fee applicable in the traditional <br />process when performing in a CM project. This is partly the <br />result of not being able to identify the design firm's fee <br />for specific services such as project inspection.107 I <br />would also suggest that some architectural firms unfamiliar <br />with the CM process may be reluctant to reduce their fees in <br />order to protect themselves from unknowns. <br />2. CM provides accurate cost estimating. Adrian states <br />that: <br />"introduction of the CM firm into the design process <br />results in more accurate preconstruction estimates. <br />The supplementing of the designer's skills with the <br />construction cost information knowledge of the CM <br />firm should enable estimates to be presented that <br />improve the project design and also prevent time <br />delays resulting from luplicate design or project <br />letting iterations. .100 <br />105 <br />106 <br />107 <br />108 <br />McNulty, op. cit., 13. <br />Adrian, op. cit., 24. <br />Ibid., 27. <br />Ibid., 27. <br />14 <br />
