Here in part three of our blog series on permanent modular buildings we’ll explore perhaps the most advantageous benefit of using modular construction – the time savings.

As the graph below illustrates, traditional construction of a building cannot start until the building site has been cleared and prepped; however, when hiring Pac-Van to handle your turnkey modular building project, we can begin “building” the components of your structure as soon as the design & engineering have been approved. Additionlly, because your facility is being built inside a factory controlled environment, there are no weather delays and no water soaked or ruined materials that can result in even more construction delays.

At the end of process, the customer’s time to occupancy has been shortened, allowing them to get into their new prefab building much quicker than they would if using tradition construction methods and to begin generating income quicker.

To back this data up, 66% of architecure, engineering and contracting professionals surveyed by McGraw-Hill Construction reported a time savings of four or more weeks on 35% of their projects using prefabricated buildings. Imagine being in business a month sooner and saving a month in construction costs.
