Expertise that Drives Efficiency

We bring over 60 years of experience to each project, with the goal of surging beyond expectations and delivering exceptional results. Throughout our history, we have been trusted by owners and general contractors seeking an insightful, collaborative and results-driven partner to pursue and build complex projects. 80% of our work consists of repeat business with established clients, reflecting our ability to deliver results time after time.

Whether your project requires design development, value engineering advice or is ready to bid and construct, we can get it done. Our expert teams can execute a variety of contract types, including hard bid work, negotiated projects, cost reimbursable, guaranteed maximum pricing and integrated project delivery system agreements.

Our Approach

Early Involvement

We involve all project members early on to plan for quality assurance, safety, timeliness and cost effectiveness.

Seamless Integration with Trade Partners

Trusted relationships with GCs and subcontractors who have a history of partnership, resulting in more complete proposals and fewer scope gaps.

Constructability Plan

Our team members with diverse expertise will engage in early collaboration that provides thorough constructability planning and QA/QC feedback, with goals to mitigate construction issues that could otherwise pose schedule delays or incur additional rework costs.

Budget Tracking / Design Issues Log

We want to be partners that identify design and constructability issues early and provide creative solutions, with real-time cost tracking support to track and maintain overall project budget while reducing RFIs and Change Orders.

Lean Construction & Procurement Plan

Mitigate wastage by bringing out-of-the-box Value Engineering expertise, while maintaining a clear understanding of facilities needs and counter cost escalations by exercising procurement leverage from our vast network of suppliers.

Delivery Methods

Design-Build & Engineering

We understand the ever-increasing level of sophisticated design input required for today’s complex design-build construction projects.  Our in-house team takes the time to fully understand your project’s electrical needs and develop integrated construction documents for rapid implementation in the field.

  • Vertically integrated, environmentally conscientious lean design
  • Performance focused energy efficient solutions
  • Cost conscious maintenance friendly approach
  • Critical system vulnerability analysis
  • Value engineering and best practice recommendations

Design-Assist

We blend innovative professional design services with practical electrical methods, materials and constructability experience. Our in-house team leverages advanced tools such as BIM coordination, REVIT, AutoCAD Electrical and real-time collaboration platforms to streamline design development, reduce rework and improve design efficiency. This provides our clients with powerful perspectives from concept to commissioning.

  • Proven design and commissioning expertise
  • Constructability and engineering design analysis
  • Detailed and real time cost tracking
  • Value engineering and best practice recommendations

Design-Bid-Build (DBB Lump Sum)

We are well versed in the DBB process and work closely with owners to fully evaluate a project and provide budget certainty prior to the beginning of construction. When given enough time, we work to identify scope gaps and develop budgets that effectively cover anticipated costs.

  • Accurate budget estimations
  • Simplified construction process
  • Scope gap identification

Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP)

In the spirit of full transparency, we frequently enter into GMP agreements with assurances that our work on a project will not exceed a set maximum price.

  • Accurate budget estimations
  • Efficient and collaborative construction process

Best Value

This delivery method goes beyond the lowest bid to select contractors based on a combination of qualifications, technical approach and cost. The process promotes early collaboration, which enables smarter design decisions, improved risk management and greater overall project value.

  • Higher quality installations
  • Fewer change orders
  • Improved long-term performance
  • Higher probability of schedules being met

Negotiated

This delivery method represents a collaborative project approach where the subcontractor is selected early in the design phase, allowing for input on budgeting, scheduling and constructability before work begins. This method benefits clients by fostering transparency, early coordination and cost control, and can also identify early procurement of long lead items.

  • Reduced change orders
  • Faster project delivery
  • Early procurement of long lead equipment

Cost Reimbursable

These contracts are often used when the project scope is unclear, for complex projects or in fluctuating market conditions. They allow for project adjustments and changes, often leading to innovative construction solutions and lower pricing.

  • Project flexibility
  • Suitability in complex projects conditions
  • Collaborative and transparent communications
  • Increased project value and reduced change orders and cost conflicts

Integrated Project Delivery (IPD)

The IPD process often results in the most innovative and collaborative project approach, as all stakeholders play a role from design to construction. IPD projects can be customized to meet critical goals, such as completion dates or budgets.

  • Enhanced collaboration
  • Improved construction efficiency
  • Streamlined project delivery
  • High level of collaboration and transparency

Teaming

We frequently work with general contractors seeking an insightful, collaborative and results-driven partner to pursue and build complex projects. This method usually involves GC’s and subcontractors who have a history of partnership, and results in more complete proposals and fewer scope gaps.

  • Proven and lasting GC relationships
  • Streamlined communications
  • Highly efficient construction process
  • Familiarity with GC and key subcontractors

Public-Private-Partnership (P3)

We have deep experience coordinating with public and private entities in the development of construction projects of all sizes. Our in-house team understands the intricacies involved in these partnerships, and will execute as required to ensure project success.

  • Enhanced project efficiencies
  • Experience with prevailing wage provisions
  • Experience with the unique P3 prime contracts and pay methods
