Testimonials
Big-D Construction is a class act, and working with you on the Cornerstone Phase I project has been a highlight of my career. What could be more rewarding than doing a beautiful building together, on behalf of Cottonwood Partners, in a CM/GC relationship grounded in many years of mutual respect and rapport? As an Architect, the worst moments are those when the phone rings and the contractor on the other line says ‘We have a problem’. Many thanks to all of the folks at Big-D who seem to frame things a little bit differently: ‘We have a problem, and we’ve got some ideas, and let’s figure it out together
Big-D Construction was selected as our contractor through a competitive request for proposal and interview process. They were selected as our professionals for the job, and quite frankly exceeded our expectations. The project had an aggressive schedule and budget and Big-D executed flawlessly. As a result of their success on the Tooele Distribution Center, Big-D was selected as our General Contractor to build our 70,000 SF retail store in Farmington, UT. That project is nearing completion and was another success story.
Throughout the whole process our Big-D construction team provided us with clear direction, transparent progress updates and detailed financial reporting which allowed us to make appropriate and timely decisions. This was a unique build on a difficult site and Big-D’s professional and courteous efforts were always at the forefront of the project. We also appreciate Big-D’s efforts in assisting us with staying within budget and appropriately accommodating our somewhat challenging time constraints. Big-D continues to walk with us to the completion of the project making sure that their oversight is present until the final issues are resolved. We look forward to many years educating future generations in this amazing facility. Thank you Big-D.
The team of Big-D did an outstanding job on our new facility. They built our new 30,000 square foot warehouse/office space on time and on budget. The team helped coordinate above and beyond the scope of services to ensure that the project kept on schedule. When issues arose they worked well with the entire team of ownership, architect, engineers, and trades to come to a sensible conclusion.”
It has been our pleasure to work with Big-D on the construction of our new classroom building. The building had an aggressive schedule, made even tougher by an early ribbon cutting ceremony to accommodate several VIPs. Big-D and their sub-contractors did what was needed to finish the building so classes and ceremonies could be held. Big-D did a great job of working on our campus, their worksite was constricted by parking and Campus Drive, and they made due with the limited laydown and access points. I am pleased with the work Big-D accomplished for us. I look forward to working with them in the future.
Having personally worked with Big-D on several projects over the past decade, I have benefited from the value of teamwork that their staff brings to the table. It is a team effort to communicate and resolve potential issues before they become problems; their approach is to study the project to flag items of concern in advance and bring them to the table to get them resolved quickly has proven very useful. They have proven to be an organized and knowledgeable, as well as display leadership in their management efforts. Big-D has demonstrated their value in the form of critical material options, effective means & methods analyses, seasonal implementations, timely material procurement and holding each team member accountable to the schedule.
Thank you so much for the phenomenal job you did on the Xactware building in Lehi. The teamwork and collaboration was truly amazing and we never could have accomplished it without the great team effort that was coordinated by Big-D. Our tenant is thrilled with the outcome and we’ve heard nothing but raving reviews about the final building from site work to skin system to interior finishes.
When choosing a Contractor for our project, it was imperative for us to know that we would have a general that would supervise the construction, keep it on schedule, and obviously within budget. Big-D provided updated pictures on a regular basis and scheduled conference calls with subcontractors to discuss open issues, keeping us in constant communications. The project was completed within the agreed upon schedule, and most importantly, within budget. I cannot thank Big-D enough for making the project uneventful and providing a beautiful building. It was a pleasure working with a competent staff of professionals, and we look forward to working with Big-D on our next project.
In order to ensure an on time completion date in this condensed timeline, Big-D had to simultaneously manage/orchestrate multiple trade subcontractors and their 250 plus workers. These subcontractors included earthwork, concrete, steel, insulated wall panels, electrical, HVAC, mechanical and equipment install. Due to their commitment to the project, professionalism, experience, and leadership they were able to meet the necessary startup date and this project is now referred to as ‘The Miracle in Martinsville
During our recent construction project with Big-D, we found them professional in their conduct, candid in their communication, and attentive to detail. As is often the case in projects that involve historical site preservation/restoration, there were unforeseen challenges and costs. The team at Big-D managed these occasions appropriately by informing our management team promptly and making suitable recommendations for remediation
Big-D exceeded all my expectations – and I’m not so easily pleased. I’ve worked with and hired many contractors over the some 30+ years in this business and I must say you and your team are the best I have had the pleasure to work with.
Big-D performed very well on this project. As our team met early on they were an integral partner in decision making, especially when it came to the most important decision of the entire effort; the re-use of the existing structure. The decision was made and we pushed forward, taking full advantage of their expertise in cost scenario analysis and strategies for constructability. The end result is beyond what we could have expected. We have a well built, beautifully detailed, very functional space that our people are using to the fullest extent, to allow for world class teaching and learning to take place. We are the fortunate beneficiaries of their commitment to excellence in craftsmanship and quality.
I was impressed with my interactions with Big-D at all levels of the organization. They have a very committed, professional, experienced, and knowledgeable team. Each went out of their way to help me and my team with our specific needs. Not once, during the entire project, was I disappointed with any of the Big-D team. They consistently exceeded my expectations.
As the Executive Director of the Children’s Center I have closely overseen four major building projects. I can tell you, without question, that our working relationship with the team at Big-D was unparalleled.
I have been deeply impressed with Big-D during my three years of work with them: their staff are responsive, professional, and timely. I say this with knowledge of their performance in good times and in bad (e.g., discovery of a significant earthquake fault on our building site and the resulting geotechnical response issues). Due to their strong performance on my project, I heartily recommend their services to related scientific projects.
