Physical Consulting Services

The Denali Group’s Physical Consulting services have been redefining the new start process for dentists for many years. How has Denali been doing this? By concentrating on a long overlooked element in the necessary start-up or practice relocation team.

It’s called the “Owner’s Representative,” who oversees and brings together all the “Physical” logistics necessary for starting a new dental office. The Owner’s Representative serves as your trusted ADVOCATE…literally your eyes and ears in the project protecting all your interests on the entire site search, planning, and build-out of your new start dental practice.

Your Largest Expense

The largest capital expense for a start-up dental practice is everything that goes into the physical space and the associated construction costs, regardless of whether it is a renovation of an existing building or ground-up construction. This also is where dentists have a large opportunity to save money…a lot of money!

Although there are professionals in the dental new start industry who will tell you they “cover” those items in their package of services, our experience is that none are experts in commerical real estate transactions, dental design, and construction project management the way Denali is an expert. Our staff has built over 400 dental offices in the last twenty years. From this experience we have found that others currently consulting in the dental new start process either do not cover important areas, or are not experts in necessary subjects such as Demographic Studies, securing appropriate practice financing, location search and site due diligence, lease negotiations and reviews, securing high tenant improvement allowances, construction drawing and design review, building permitting, competitive bidding of construction, value engineering,construction build-out management, and overall project management. All these areas, and many more, need to be at a high level of experience in order to yield significant savings, save time, and produce a quality end result.

In short, the way dental new start practices or relocation of existing dental offices are managed by current consultants and service providers leaves a lot of money on the table. Denali’s Owner’s Representation services seek out maximum cost savings in many areas of the site location search, project planning, and physical build-out of a new office…and we deliver these savings to the benefit of the dentist!

We are so confident about our services we offer a MONEY BACK GUARANTEE!!

Single Point of Contact

Essentially, The Denali Group acts as the Single Point of Contact for all physical aspects of a new dental office project. By doing this, Denali takes managing the site selection, space layout design, pre-construction planning, and actual construction process to a whole new level. It is a level which allows the practitioner to make highly informed decisions about their new office in a way that allows them to save enormous amounts of time and money. This is time which can be better put into your practice’s operations and increasing its actual production…and saved money which can be better used to acquire more equipment, market and build your practice, and provide extra cash reserves to your working capital account. ​
​ Denali is an expert at keeping a project on time, on budget, and within the desired scope of work. We take great care in ensuring a practitioner’s ultimate vision and goals are not only met, but exceeded! Through well-developed project management techniques perfected over many years of experience, we ensure that all construction related contractors, consultants, service providers, and material suppliers are in precise coordination and in timely communication. And when small problems arise during construction (as they always will) we are experienced at making sure they do not become major problems—they get solved expeditiously and without delaying a project’s time schedule or upsetting the budget.

With a Denali Group Owner’s Representative who is a true impartial and objective advocate on your team, you can relax by knowing you have the experience and expertise on your side to seek out significant cost and time savings in the design and physical build-out of your new dental practice. And the best part: our fees more than pay for themselves from cost savings.​
