Adding flexibility to your project, we offer self-perform services to help keep the project moving forward quickly. We offer a workforce available to perform the following at a moment’s notice:
- General carpentry
- Concrete
- Millwork
- Miscellaneous metals
- Process pipe and equipment
- Site/civil work
- Demolition
We can mobilize field personnel quickly and perform work 24-hours a day as well as on weekends to achieve project goals. This is especially important for jobs that have fast-tracked project schedules.
In this role, we operate as an extension of our client’s staff, overseeing both project construction and facilities management. We create a “construction program” in which we manage design review, budgeting, scheduling, quality control, safety and security, as well as other client-requested items. This approach is best suited for an organization with multiple projects or facilities because it provides a consistent, measurable program through every phase of the construction process which can be extended to any location or facility.
