The goal of your state or local government agency is simple: to make a positive impact on people’s lives. That means providing a police force that protects and serves them, safe roads and bus terminals so they can get to work, and clean, beautiful parks for them to enjoy. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Giving your community the facilities and the infrastructure it deserves is no small feat. Gordian is here to help.
For grade school and college students, summer is a time to get away from the books and take a break from work. For school facilities teams, it is the exact opposite: Summer is the busy season, when the bulk of renovations, repairs and maintenance projects are completed. But the work starts now. Here’s what schools should do now to set themselves up for a successful summer.
When it comes to repairs, renovations and minor alterations, traditional construction project delivery methods can hinder progress. That’s why agencies across the U.S. access Gordian’s Job Order Contracting (JOC). An alternative project delivery method, JOC empowers you to complete a large number of projects with a single, competitively-awarded contract containing preset prices for construction Tasks. That all adds up to faster delivery and greater cost control.
Access to accurate construction costs is vital for budgeting and estimating projects — especially when resources are limited. You need cost data you can trust. Gordian’s RSMeans data has set the industry standard for construction cost accuracy since the 1940s. Today, the cost database contains over 92,000 unit line items, each researched and validated by a team of engineers and data scientists.
