Construction
The construction division of McMillen Jacobs brings an exceptionally experienced staff providing design-build and hard-bid construction services. Our key team members have been involved in every aspect of construction from supervision and purchasing to detailed project management, estimating, and construction management. We have extensive experience in executing various types of contracts while simultaneously performing multiple construction projects at numerous locations. Our construction staff also provides realistic construction support services for scheduling, sequencing, and cost estimates during the preliminary design phases which can be relied upon in developing project budgets and economic analysis. Our construction team is comprised of construction managers and professionals with hands on experience in the industry. Because we self-execute a large percentage of our projects, we employ field superintendents, foreman, equipment operators, concrete crews, and laborers. McMillen Jacobs maintains complete concrete, excavation, demolition, and underground utility crews and equipment capable of performing approximately 50 to 90 percent of the work effort associated with our projects.
Our team members have been involved in technical aspects of self-performing construction—not just managing the work. This technical expertise is valuable when meeting unexpected challenges. Because of our years of experience in the field, our construction staff also provides realistic scheduling, sequencing, and cost estimates. Specifically, our construction team has executed many in-river projects which required an innovative approach to successfully complete. An additional advantage to in-house construction capabilities is that our construction team has often been able to save our clients valuable budget dollars and shorten schedules due to their hands-on experience. The structure of our company organization provides a truly integrated design, construction, and environmental team that can collaborate on challenging projects.
