Life of the Project

Our vision is to be the best DESIGNBUILD contractor in Southeastern Wisconsin. To achieve this, we use a very rigorous process we call the Life of the Project Manual (LOPM). This process comes from having over 66 years of experience that has been refined into a set program for how we run the entire customer experience. Each step or phase has multiple checklists, schedules, and formats that help us exceed your expectations.
