Program Management

DY’s fully integrated team of planners, designers and program managers assist our clients with pre-planning, programming and strategic planning efforts for the largest aviation improvement projects in the nation. Our comprehensive approach addresses all of the factors involved in airport programs and is based on decades of experience delivering complex landside, airside, terminal and infrastructure development projects.

DY Consultants has developed a proven, integrated Master Plan Implementation and Program Management approach led by experienced aviation strategists, planners, design managers, financial advisors and project control specialists. We work with clients to identify and categorize their needs and objectives for the program according to different timing horizons: immediate (30/60/90 days), short-term (1 year) and long-term (2+ years). To transition from a master planning exercise to the actual design and procurement of airport projects (terminals and non-terminals), our team has developed different levels of Project Definition Documents (PDDs). These documents encompass the individual areas indicated below.

Our program and project control processes were developed by our Airport Program and Design Managers based on real-world project experience and lessons learned from decades of close relationships with our clients. We develop controls procedures that are tailored to each client’s needs and remain fully customizable for the duration of the project.  Continuous improvement is a priority in our organization, and we encourage it in our client’s approach to serving their clients too.

DY Consultants is unique in that we offer in-house experts with decades of experience in planning, engineering, architecture, program and construction management for all phases of airport development. A fully integrated team allow us to develop comprehensive solutions that meet our clients’ goals and provide seamless project delivery. We have also demonstrated success with complex projects based on multiple delivery strategies across the country, including Design-Build, Design-Bid-Build, Progressive Design, Public-Private-Partnership, and DBOM.

We believe design and construction are two faces of the same coin. Our team has helped clients to develop and implement protocols that have simplified their design review processes. We have provided design management services to support a variety of successful developments, such as expansions, ground-up, brownfield and greenfield projects.

The success of a program or project often rely on external stakeholders like developers, financers and builders. Depending on the project delivery method selected, their involvement and ability to negotiate program or project requirements can vary. Our versatile team has worked with state and federal agencies, airport authorities worldwide, and developers and contractors to ensure our clients’ interests and concerns are always addressed.

DY Consultants has developed successful construction planning strategies for some of the largest airport redevelopment programs in the nation. Our teams work closely with clients to identify program objectives, determine delivery needs, and assess risks and operational impacts during construction. DY professionals build airport-wide logistics and phasing plans that mitigate disruption to operations and preserve continuity of service and customer experience at the airport.

Our qualified team has provided strategic construction oversight services for aviation projects worldwide. DY has developed customized submittal protocols to facilitate fast track construction. We believe construction stakeholders are just as important as design stakeholders. DY has managed the expectations of existing tenants, the Resident Engineer’s Office and compliance agencies to successfully deliver complex construction projects.
