Supporting detail
Access planning should identify entry points, work hours, and areas off-limits to construction traffic so tenant operations are disrupted as little as the scope allows.
Security and key control for restoration crews should be coordinated with property management, particularly in multi-tenant buildings with shared common areas.
Noise, dust, and odor-generating work should be scheduled and communicated in advance so tenants can plan around disruptive activities rather than being surprised by them.
A single escalation contact for tenant access issues during construction helps resolve conflicts quickly without disrupting the broader restoration schedule.
