Site Analysis

Evaluating location options requires skilled, professional analysis based on your experience and integrated knowledge of financial, construction, regulatory and market considerations. When evaluating building locations, we consider the interrelationship of factors like:
- Location
- Zoning
- Exposure
- Acquisition
- Pre and post environmental issues
- Transportation
- Access
- Expansion
Financial Assessment
Our team has been instrumental in exploring financial options with our clients over the years. Sorting through the complexities of available financing alternatives can be confusing, frustrating and overwhelming. The areas we can evaluate financial viability with you include:
- Tax Increment Financing (TIF)
- Industrial Revenue Bonds
- Permanent & Construction Bonds
- Conventional Sources
- Municipal Financing Incentives
- Economic Development Administration
- Small Business Administration (SBA)
Design
Your ideas, visions and concepts are transformed into space solutions through our professional design team. By integrating design with engineering construction, your dreams become a reality that fits your concept, image, needs and budget. Our innovative designers focus on:
- Concept Design
- General and Specialty Disciplines
- Landscape Design
- Interior Design

Engineering
No matter how basic or complex the project, engineering is the critical element that links concept to construction. Engineering translates design concepts into analytical systems that merge building and site into a unified whole. Our range of engineering specialties offered internally or with consulting engineers include:
- Civil Engineering
- Structural Engineering
- Electrical Engineering
- Mechanical Engineering
- Material Testing
- Geotechnical Engineering
Project Management
Organizing all the diverse, interrelated elements of your construction program requires a ‘make it happen’ individual that can coordinate, monitor, redefine and orchestrate its’ progress. Our company assigns a project manager to your project from it’s inception.
This person is your direct liaison with us, responsible for meshing and prioritizing all aspects of your project from concept to completion – and for communicating directly with you.
Your project manager takes charge of responsibilities including:
- Estimating
- Project Analysis
- Project Strategy
- Cost Control/ Containment
- Phase Integration
- Schedule Control
- Materials and Methods Coordination
Construction
We offer complete comprehensive construction services using our own skilled internal trade personnel. Subcontractors are used where an external workforce is cost effective and appropriate for your project. While current design may dictate pre-cast or specialty systems, our preferred knowledge of pre-engineered steel building experience combined with our expertise in traditional brick and mortar construction provides you the right combination of materials and labor needed to get the job done.
The elements for construction control at our company include:
- Pre-construction and In-progress meetings
- Materials and methods coordination
- On-site Supervision
- Quality Control
- Progress Monitoring
- Schedule Control
- Schedule Adherence

Pre-Engineered
Engineered for total flexibility, pre-engineered structural systems give you the opportunity to design exactly what your client has in mind. Value engineering is a discipline that takes the costs out of finished structures while maintaining quality. Value engineering means a favorable bottom-line impact on your construction investment. From blueprints to reality the look will be uniquely yours, unmistakingly pre-engineered.
Our preferred manufacturer of choice and renowned leader in this industry is Butler Manufacturing. We invite you to join the growing ranks of architects, engineers and designers specifying, or owners and end users utilizing pre-engineered construction systems. The quality of the products, the engineering and technical soundness and of course, cost combine for the best value in the industry.
