Alexandria and Campbell County are positioned along the growing I-275 and US-27 corridors in Northern Kentucky. The county combines suburban residential growth with industrial and commercial development serving the greater Cincinnati metropolitan area. Campbell County Economic Development actively promotes business investment while supporting existing employers.
The region benefits from proximity to the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG), major interstate highways, and the Ohio River. Northern Kentucky's growth has attracted significant investment across logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, and professional services sectors. The Gateway Community and Technical College and regional universities support workforce development.
Whether you're developing commercial property along major corridors, expanding manufacturing facilities, or constructing residential developments to serve the growing population, Alexandria projects benefit from experienced oversight. An independent Owner's Representative ensures that cross-border complexity and growth-market pressures don't compromise your budget and timeline.
Every construction project involves three core parties: the Architect, focused on design and code compliance; the General Contractor, focused on means, methods, and their own profitability; and the Owner, who funds everything but often lacks the technical expertise to protect their investment. This creates what we call the Leadership Vacuum, where no one is truly accountable for the owner's budget and schedule.
DeVore Consulting fills this vacuum. We work exclusively for you, never holding trade contracts or self-performing work. Our role is to translate your business objectives into construction outcomes, providing a single point of accountability from pre-design through project closeout.
We bring disciplined methodology to commercial and industrial projects in Campbell County.
Growth-market projects demand precise budget control. We verify that pay applications reflect work actually completed, analyze change orders, and model the financial impact of decisions before they're made.
Projects in the $500K to $50M range are our specialty. These projects need professional oversight but may not attract attention from Cincinnati-focused firms.
We never build; we only manage. This means our advice is never influenced by a desire to self-perform work or protect a margin.
We support the project types driving Campbell County's growth:
New construction along major corridors serving the expanding population.
Facility expansions serving the greater Cincinnati market.
Apartment and housing developments meeting demand from population growth.
Medical offices and professional buildings serving Northern Kentucky residents.
We serve communities throughout Northern Kentucky including Independence, Burlington, and the greater Cincinnati region.
The greatest value we provide comes from early engagement, before you've committed to a property or finalized designs. Our Fatal Flaw Analysis investigates infrastructure capacity, Kentucky regulatory requirements, and site conditions while there's still time to negotiate or walk away.
If your Alexandria project is already underway and facing challenges, we can help stabilize the situation through rigorous change order review and contractor accountability. But prevention is always more cost-effective than cure.
Contact DeVore Consulting to discuss your Alexandria project.
We provide comprehensive project oversight for business owners and developers who need expert guidance through the construction process. With 20+ years overseeing the design and construction of residential and commercial, we know where problems hide and how to prevent them.
These FAQs are a starting point, but your project has specific goals, risks, and financial stakes. My role is to be your trusted guide.I protect your time and money by simplifying the process, providing experienced oversight, and preventing costly mistakes before they happen.
Arcadia is a 327-acre mixed-use development by Drees Co. and Fischer Homes creating 1,000 housing units. This project is expected to change the face of Alexandria, addressing housing demand in Northern Kentucky. Such large-scale development creates opportunities for supporting commercial construction and related infrastructure.
The 33.5-acre Southern Campbell Industrial Park next to Tyson Foods received $2 million in Kentucky Product Development Initiative funding after 10 years of development by 50 partners. The Campbell County Economic Progress Authority received zone change approval for Industrial One designation. This creates opportunities for manufacturing and industrial development.
Yes. Our service doesn't end when the contractor hands over the keys. Our "Phase 4: Closeout" process includes comprehensive warranty management and post-occupancy support to ensure your building functions as intended. We ensure all final documentation and manuals are collected, which is the foundation for your long-term facility management.
Yes. While some firms only focus on large institutional projects, we specialize in guiding small business owners and first-time developers. The need for an owner's rep depends more on your project's complexity than its size. A complex $2M restaurant renovation often has more risk than a simple $5M warehouse. We can help you assess if professional oversight makes financial sense for your specific project .
Yes. An owner's rep with a strong financial background is invaluable here. With an MBA in Real Estate Finance, we help you prepare the realistic, bank-ready documents lenders need to see. We create defensible pro formas, validate construction budgets, and manage the loan draw process, which builds essential trust and credibility with your lender.
Of course. We'll provide you with all the free advice you can handle. But to get started formally, we'll have to make sure our services align with you needs. We'll get to know your project aspirations and put together a proposal. Until we have an agreement no payment is expected.
Depending on scope, fees typically range from 0.5% to 1% of the total construction cost, depending on the project's complexity, timeline, and the specific scope of services you need . Studies have shown this investment typically saves clients 3-5% on total construction costs through rigorous contractor management, change order review, and problem prevention, meaning the service more than pays for itself.
Absolutely. While we add the most value by being involved from pre-construction through closeout , we can tailor our services to your specific needs. We are often brought in just for pre-construction planning, to help with contractor selection, or to get a troubled project that's already underway back on track.
