Urban Resources, Inc. provides end-to-end project management services from feasibility through construction.
Feasibility
Dreaming up a new project is an exciting process. URI can assist with property analysis and research, review of design concepts, pro forma budgeting, and coordination with any regulatory agencies or private entities who may have an impact on your vision.
Design Development
Once the property is yours, it's time to design a building. Let us guide the RFP process for hiring an architect and any consultants. URI will monitor the design schedule and oversee contract compliance to ensure timely delivery of design drawings.
Pre-Construction
We value planning! URI will guide the contractor selection process to fill out the project team. This is the time to look at constructibility, value engineering ideas, work with the municipality for permitting, and coordinate anything up front to help with a smooth construction phase.
Construction
Shaping and making of your project a reality! During construction, URI stays fully involved in all aspects of the project. Everything from negotiating final project cost, to documenting site progress, monitoring quality, reviewing pay applications, and getting your project complete on budget and on schedule.
On both the Columbia River Gorge Discovery Center and the Portland Children’s Museum, Randy expertly facilitated true collaboration between the owner, the builder and the entire design team. His attention to detail, thorough and efficient communication and very good natured personality bring out the best in all project stakeholders and leads to highly successful outcomes.

“Unico Properties was very fortunate to find URI when launching our 27 story apartment tower in Portland. Randy and Adam and the entire team were exceptional to work with on the project. I would highly recommend URI not only for your small TI but had the utmost trust in them to manage our high-stakes project that require exceptional leadership, talent, and attention to detail – the kind of projects that can’t afford to fail.”
