Most of our work falls between about $5M and $150M in contract value and 25,000 to 500,000 SF. Our bonding program covers $150M on a single project and $400M in aggregate. We also take smaller fit-out work for existing clients.

Yes. We deliver hard-bid and CM-at-risk work for school districts, colleges and public health systems, with bid bonds, prevailing-wage certified payroll and board-ready reporting.

Yes. It comes with our first response: bonding letter, insurance certificates, an EMR letter from our carrier, three years of OSHA logs, client references and, under an NDA, audited financial statements.

Design-build when the schedule is the main driver. CM at risk when you want to keep your own architect and need cost certainty early. Design-bid-build when documents are complete and price competition matters most. Not sure? Choose “advise us” in the bid form and we will put a written recommendation in front of you.

On design-build and CM-at-risk work, precon is part of the agreement, usually as a fixed fee set at contract. Standalone feasibility estimates are scoped as a fixed fee too. Either way, you get the number in writing before we start.

A guaranteed maximum price is the most you will pay for the agreed scope; above it, the risk is ours. Buyout savings and unused contingency are tracked in an open ledger and returned at closeout under the split agreed in the contract.

Across our last 20 projects, the average variance from milestone estimate to final cost was ±2.8%. We report every variance with the reason behind it, including the ones that went the wrong way.

Most of our work is next to or inside a working facility: ICRA and ILSM plans on hospital campuses, summer phasing on schools, and vibration, dust and outage protocols in live manufacturing plants.

Every change goes in an open log, priced and sent to you for approval before the work proceeds, unless you direct it in writing. Our reports separate owner-initiated changes from contractor-initiated ones, so you can see exactly where cost came from.

In 2025 our EMR was 0.71 and our TRIR was 1.42 across 742,000 craft hours. Three years of figures, the leading indicators behind them and how to read them are on the safety page.

Safety first: EMR, TRIR and a written safety program come before price. Then capacity, references and scope coverage. Partners above our safety thresholds need a corrective plan before they are invited.

A project executive, project manager and superintendent, all named in our proposal. The people who present the plan are the people who build it.

Across the Calder Valley region and neighbouring markets. For repeat industrial and healthcare clients we travel further when the project fits our self-perform crews.
